Leave it in there, but leave the cap to the reservior open. The gas will evaporate away. Just keep sparks and open flames away. If you still don't feel safe, you can siphon it out. The gas is less dense than water so it will float on top of the water.

I have no idea how that happened. Yes, you need to get it out of there. Drain and flush the coolant out. Prestone makes a flush kit that you can install on the car, which will allow you to hook a garden hose to the heater hose and open the radiaor cap and let it clean itself out. good luck

PS -- The instructions are on the kit, and they are pretty siimple.

the gas tank is generally located at the rear of the vehicle. it wouldn't hurt to have your cooling system flushed as the gas may affect the rubber radiator hoses and heater lines.

Now how did this happen? There is no link between fuel and antifreeze. Remover the reservoir and drain it. and please do not set yourself on fire.

How in the world did you do that???!!!

Flush it out.
It will ruin your water pump seal, and hoses.
