Does anyone know how best to get rid of it? Both the LC and another project have tanks full of the stuff. I don't want to dump into the drain on the street and using it to light bonfires doesn't really appeal either as I quite like having eyebrows and the little hair that remains on my head...

Thanks. I tried some in my sons pw50 and it promptly refused to run so actually putting it in any form of engine is out I think. The local recycling centre oil disposal may be the way forward!

Just leave it in the tanks, in 30yrs time there will only be a little tarry residue left in the bottom of the tanks, problem solved

Whilst I expect it'll take me a while to get around to finishing both projects, I'm hoping it won't take quite that long!

Not sure. 7-10 years would be my guess.

Ah, fairly old then, only reason I ask is that the fuel in my Hayabusa is nearly 3 years old now and it starts on the button every 6 months or so.
