NounSingular gasoline Plural uncountable gasoline (uncountable)
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Gasoline or petrol is a petroleum-derived liquid mixture, primarily used as fuel in internal combustion engines. It also is used as a powerful solvent much like acetone. It consists mostly of aliphatic hydrocarbons, enhanced with iso-octane or the aromatic hydrocarbons toluene and benzene to increase its octane rating. Small quantities of various additives are common, for purposes such as tuning engine performance or reducing harmful exhaust emissions. Some mixtures also contain significant quantities of ethanol as a partial alternative fuel. Most current or former Commonwealth countries use the term petrol, abbreviated from petroleum spirit. In North America, the word gasoline is the common term, where it is often shortened in colloquial usage to simply gas. It is not a genuinely gaseous fuel (unlike, for example, liquefied petroleum gas, which is stored under pressure as a liquid, but returned to a gaseous state before combustion). The term petrogasoline is also used. In aviation, mogas, short for motor gasoline, is used to distinguish automobile fuel from aviation gasoline, or avgas. In British English, gasoline can refer to a different petroleum derivative historically used in lamps, but this usage is relatively uncommon. From Wikipedia under the

Go to the pet store and get an enzyme cleaner for removing pet stains. This cleaner has a bacteria in it that will effectively "eat" the gasoline. When you spray it on, it will only foam up in the areas that have gasoline on them. I used this to remove diesel fuel from my own carpet, afterwards no more fuel smell. It may also be a good idea to remove the carpet and clean the floorpan and padding underneath, these probably contain gasoline as well.

Q. This past weekend I helped my girlfriend move into her new apartment. She has these two couches that were sitting in her parents garage for the past year and they have a faint smell of gasoline. My guess is that they smell like that because they've been sitting in a garage for the past year and there are no visible stains (except for a foot size dark stain on one of the couches). Does anybody know what would work to get rid of the smell? Its kind of gross. Thanks Asked by Daniel T - Tue May 27 00:11:46 2008 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments A. Lysol.
