Flash point of gasoline is not included in standard specification (EN228 etc).

Flash point of gasoline is not possible because it is very flammable.

I think, it's measured by Abel's apparatus & not. Then, by which method is it measure?

Abels apparatus is the correct answer. Penky marter's is used above 50 degree. Abel is manually controlled flame apparatus i.e. open cup type, whereas penky is closed cup apparatus.
