how do you remove gasoline from carpet?

To completely remove this odor you must raise the carpet in the areas of spill. remove the padded backing from the carpet, then have the carpet steam cleaned. replace new backing pad to the carpet. Now the smell will not be gone yet, because the rest of the interior has absorbed the smell. So i recommend a spray bomb or a febreeze. It may work. Do this with windows up, for an hour or 2, then let vehicle air out. The last step may need repeated.... seems like a lot to do but trust me its cheaper than buying a new car... good luck!

There is a product on the market that you can buy that will chemically change the formulation of the gasoline hence getting rid of the odor. I can't remember what the name of the product is but you can probably check with anybody that works on cars, they probably know...

clean it repeatedly with simple green we had the same thing happen and we tried everything and it was the only thing we found to work simple green is made to break down things like oils and gas good luck

we tried the let it evaporate idea and trust me it didnt work at all

next time ,transport gas in a gas can and put it in a milk crate in your trunk. surround it with old rags,that way you will not have to go through this clean up again.GOOD LUCK

It should evaporate, just put a fan in there. Also you might want to steam clean the area.

Leave your windows open for 48 hours and let it air/dry out...

Remove all your floor mats and let it air out also...

Closing your windows will circulate the fumes...

once it drys-place an ozone machine inside car overnight-most carpet cleaners own one they can rent to you

I have to agree with mets9999, good answer!

A PEICE OF CHARCOAL WILL ELIMINATE ANY ODORS!
