How do you effectively remove a scummy muddy substance from gasoline ?

Question

Some gasoline I have has been contaminated by something. I can smell that there is gasonline in that can but it pours out murky and won't fire up the lawnmower. I was thinking about letting it settle and then pump off the clear stuff on the top. What do you think? I am thinking if I pour it into a filter the scum will just plug up the filter. It is pretty thick.

Answer 1

The fuel has gone bad. It must smell putrid. Don't pour in ANY engine. Properly dispose of it & buy new. If you must store it, then mix in fuel stabilizer.
