Snarly Charlie, the 182, has the classic "Cessna drip" from the fuel vent when
the tanks are filled and the hangar gets warm. I've tried everything I know to
stop it, but all I can do with all the mechanical fixes is slow it down.


I'm getting ready to patch the asphalt under the drip and paint the hangar
floor. Since I can't stop the drip, I want to contain it safely. Anybody got
any thoughts on how to neutralize gasoline and contain the drip without being a
fire hazard?



There are asphalt mixes that resist gasoline "softening"... They
get used on fueling pads, etc. Ask a paving guru.

How about a bucket full of kitty litter?
