Only a few drops came out. (less than 1/4 cup). Most of the fuel came out of the fuel filter itself, which again wasn't much. (1 cup).

Day 1:
Washed my hands with dish detergent, clothing detegent, hand soap, shampoo, and alcohol. Gasoline smell did not go away from my hands. Washed my clothes twice but they smell like gas just because I was under the car for a while with the strong smell of gaslone rubbing off on my clothes.

Day 2 (today):
Washed my hands again with hand soap, shampoo, and orange mechanics soap. My hands still smell like gas. I only got maybe 3 drops of gas on my hands when I did the job.
