Burning old fuel

[POINTER94]

I have had my boat in storage for two years with a full tank of stabilized fuel. Before I take her out on open water I would like to burn at least 25 of the 80 gallons. The easiest way would be to run her on the muffs.

Any idea how long it would take to run off 20+ gallons on a 5.7L carb'ed and is this safe? I have been told that as long as you don't exceed around 2500 rpms this is safe.

True?

Suck it out with a pump and run it in the mower or your vehicles

drain and put some into each car or truck you have. Leave enough room in the tanks (about half) so you can dilute it to make it have a beter poop to octane rating

I agree with the other guys. Pump it out and dump it in your lawn stuff. Give it to friends, whatever.
