The gas prices are extremely high in my area right now. They're over $2.00 / gallon now! I need to take a trip of a few hundred miles on Saturday. I don't want to pay over $2.00 for gas! I have a 1976 Chevy van w/ a 30 gallon gas tank that is mostly full. The gas is old, but has Sta-Bil in it. The van starts and runs fine on it, it just has no brakes. Is there any reason not to syphon the gas out of the van and into a gas can to add to my S10? Would one of those $5 syphon kits from wal*mart work well? Should I filter the gas through something to eliminate the bits of junk likely picked up from the 30 year old tank? Would the filter on the gas can and the fuel filter of the S10 do well enough to keep things working well?

If you spent 5-10 bucks on something to syphen the tank and it takes a gallon of gas to get to the store and back....
And you want to put some old crappy gas that probably has water, rust and what ever else in it, just before you take a long trip...
Then you probably also want to take a fuel filter and some heat or other kind of gas treatment with you just incase the bad gas cloggs your filter or you have other problems on the highway...
I think your better off selling the bad gas to a bum, then getting some gas at the gas station.
See, then you get some money for the bad gas...and you kill a bum... then there is one less bum and you got paid for it.

wouldnt trust it, you never know what kind of crud is in that gas. plus if it has been sitting for 2 years even with a stabilizer, all of the possibilities of seperation. I once put summer gas in an atv after a winter had elapsed and it was summer again, and it focked up the motor on the atv pretty good. Imagine what a tank of that would do in yo truckster
I gave in and bought some fresh gas at a local station. I feel so dirty paying $2.149 / gal I really hate Bush and his Iraq war. I liked it when gas was .749 / gal about 5 or 6 years ago. damn republicans
