Use it on your driveway as a weed killer.

by outboard gas do you mean two stroke or four stroke!
If four stroke Then I'd pur 10l into my car and then fill the car with 98 octane.
Then repeat it for the other 10l

I've used 2 year old outboard 2 stroke premix in my old EA falcon, put 40 litres in with 20 fresh, no worries

Shove it in the car or the lawn mower.Worst that will happen is a bit of smoke - just like a 2 stroke.

It could do, hence you should put it in the petrol tank.

Sheesh--TWO stoke mix--
OP -sorry I need to lern 2 reed aye!
ANYHOO--with old two stroke mix try GENTLY decanting it into a 5.0l opaque/clear jug. By nowe theres a good chance the oil will have resettled so you'll get 15l of clean fuel and about 5l of two stroke
