gasoline! No kidding!
Use kitty litter to soak up the excess, then scrub with a heavy detergent and water.
Assuming your drive is brick or concrete....First, try an alkeline degreasant (from a car accesory place, used for cleaning engines or paint brush restorer from a DIY store, the type you use on oilbased paint, then wash with water) Let it soak a while, then use the hose end of a wet/dry vacuum cleaner to 'pull' the dirty fluid out. Maybe that will not get it all, so try soaking in a strong mix of biological detergent, hold the detergent solution in place with a cloth...let it soak for a few hours, then rinse and vaccum up...good luck.
Degrease with a mixture of Dawn dishwashing soap and water. Allow it to dry. Mix 7 parts water and 1 part Muratic Acid (available at your hardware store). Soak spot for about 20-30 minutes. Neutralize with 8 parts water and 1 part Ammonia. Rinse with water. This should be done until all of the oil is wicked out of the concrete. May take as long as 4-6 months having been done 1-2 time per week. Oil absorbs into the concrete just like water. It may even reach the bottom of the slab. All of this oil needs to be removed or it will show up again.
