Steve McQueen did not die of lung cancer. He died of pleural mesothelioma. Almost always a asbestos/smoker related disease. And a awfull way to go I may add. The US EPA could not care less about what you do in your house reguarding asbestos. Residential units of 4 or less are exempt from the Asbestos regulations, that would be NESHAP, The National Emission Standard for Hazardous Air Emissions. However your state, county or some regional district may have a different view. Of course the landfill may balk at taking hazardous waste and the Highway Patrol may have some strong opinions about the correct way to haul it down the highway. If I was doing it I would use visqueen (or glove bags) to contain the area, use HEPA machines( with delta P certification) able to exchance exchange the air 4 times a hour, wear a respirator with P100 filters with a protection factor of 10, that I am fit tested and qualified to wear, have my annual HAZMAT physical, wet the material with a cationic emulsifing surfacant, seal it in leaktight containors, have a serious way to decontaminate myself comming out of containmen and thought about how I was going to get rid of it before I started. They are your lungs though, not mine. Breath it if you want to.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
