gasoline problems?

Question

Will something happen if I leave my gasoline container outside, like in the shade. Also how do you get the gas smell to go away?
Thx

Answer 1

That smell is the gasoline itself, and you won't get it to go away completely.
As for storing the fuel in a container, if you intend to store it for only a few days, it will be fine.
If you plan to store it longer, it would be very wise to add a fuel stabilizer (one brand name is STABIL), and follow the instructions on the container. This will help reduce the effects of the oxidizing of the fuel.
