Gasoline can be ignited by even a tiny spark at temperatures as low as fifty below zero, but it merely evaporates at temperatures up to about four hundred seventy five to five hundred F.

Answers. Best Answer: The gasoline it self actually does not burn, the vapors that are given off do. Gas burns at a very high temp I don't remember the exact flash point. (the temp that something com busts) When gas or any thing else for that matter,burns there are 3 things that occur. The 1st is heat. The gas will reach a certain tempture & then ignight.
