Context:
"Then when we arrived at the marina, he had his former partners come aboard. We did not reunite for seven months, and this was only because I was sick, and he declared his undying love. Eighteen months later he tried to murder me … tried to gas me in a confined space on the yacht."

ahogar/asfixiar con gas
Si bien se entiende por "gasear", esta palabra sola puede tener varios diferentes significados. E.g. darle más gas o acelerar un motor, echarle gas o esforzarse para hacer algo, darle gas o despedir a alguien de su trabajo o su relación.

: ¿Puedes facilitar una referencia donde "gasear" tiene el significado de "despedir" a alguien de su relación? Sería interesante.

Sí Kirsten, es interesante. En México se usan ciertos modismos y frases que a veces rayan en lo incomprensible. Se usa como sinónimo de "desaparece", "vuelvete gas", "esfúmate" y otros.
