Rich,

I sometimes get the cars like you have, I save it in a good gas can and use 
it to clean parts with,works especially well with old greasy stuff. I use a 
large plastic pan like an oil change pan and let the stuff evaporate 
(outside) after Im done, ( you dont need to swim in the stuff to use it) so 
a little goes a long way. Look at it this way, if you can safely work with 
it, i.e. not near your furnace, sparks ect.( im saying that for the benefit 
of all)  its a cheap way of degreasing, and old gas is kinda nicer to the 
nose than some degreasing chemicals in spray cans.

My 2 cents worth
