    Ugly Jeep memories from 2007

    Hi All, I just found a Gerry Can of gas from a trip, lets just say about 2 years ago. I'm figuring it may not be a good idea to use it. Any thought on how to tell if its still OK to use or so I just figure out out to dispose of it and be safe not putting it in my TJ?
