How long has it been sitting? Couple years? If only a short time, put some additive in the tank and run it.

If you need to get rid of only 2 gallons or so, put it in a metal bucket with no lid. It should evaporate quickly. Caution used to leave it outside away from ignition source,children,animals,etc. also place it where water/rain cant overfill it & spill onto ground. 2 gallons will probably evaporate in 1 to 3 days outside.

Just use it in the daily driver with a full tank.
