A great fire starter is diesel fuel and dryer lint. A little dab of
diesel will do it, slow hot burning and no flash fire.

Certainly better than a gallon of unleaded. I did that once on a hunting
trip when I was about 16. Poured some Coleman fuel on some wood, and tossed
a match. I got back about six or eight feet. It was amazing how far the
fumes crawled along the ground. I still remember the inverted mushroom.
