To rejuvenate old gasoline, first, assess its condition. If it's just a bit stale but not contaminated, adding a fuel stabilizer and fresh gasoline can sometimes revitalize it. Mix in the appropriate ratio as directed by the stabilizer’s manufacturer. For best results, use about one part fresh gasoline to one part old gasoline, ensuring the mix is thoroughly combined before use. However, if the gasoline is severely degraded or contaminated, it's safer to dispose of it properly and replace it with fresh fuel.
