I would too, except that as a small-boat sailor I'm vividly aware
that playing with heavy explosive vapors at the bottom of a hole can
leave you many feet in the air with your hair on fire.  So it would
depend on how well ventilated the place is.  And that can be hard to
tell without a fume detector, because gasoline numbs your nose quickly.
