I would unplug the gas line before the filter and take a battery jack into the power wires for the fuel pump and pump it out. there is a chance if there is crap in the tank it could kill your pump. but it could work if you cant pull the tank right now.
then put a little gas in there to see if it does it again. if so then you probabely have a dirty tank if so I have been told to take the tank off put some rock in there and shake the crap out of it so the rocks knock it all loose then use gas to make sure and get all the crap rinsed out of it.
no idea where to get rid of the gas legally!

Are you having any problem with your vehicle that you think might be caused by the fuel?

I was just suggesting that once you get the fuel out of the tank that you should light it on fire.

only after using it to liberally soak non-dairy creamer.
for best results, ignite with large quantities of air.
