Cliff, Thanks for the advice. Wilkes county has no hazardous waste collection facility or periodic collection. There is a collection facility in West Jefferson in Ashe County and I will try there.

My friend Peter who lives in California in a touristy place has the same problem. He is going to try and park his 1985 Ford truck with the bad gasoline out by the highway in the hopes that the tourists will siphon the gasoline out to steal it.

Update: The facility in Ashe County does not accept hazardous waste from outside the county. I will try the one in Charlotte.

In Charlotte we take it to the recycling place and they take oil and gas and no cost involved for it.
