I know that there are plenty of folk on the list who have had experience car that has been parked and left for... well, let's just say "a while". Gasoline formulations have changed over the years, so

Toxic sludge, :-) more than likely. Put a large drain pan under the gas tank and take out the drain plug. Get all of that old gas out of there and then unbolt the tank and go to the local car wash an

Well, in my case I found a pound of whitish powder... The gasoline had all evaporated, the tank was full of pinholes and dust (toxic, heavy-metal stuff, I'm sure). That was after the car sat for abo
