What do you think?
The hand pump sucks too slow. What if I take a spare fuel pump, some spare hose and a couple electical leads and this to siphon off my tank for removal... Is this a stupid idea? Will I end up on the news? |

I used a siphon to a 5 gallon gas can (and then put the gas into my Suby). It was not the fastest way to do it, but it was much more controlled, and I think it cost me all of about $5.
And I was later able to use the siphon to remove all the water from my washing machine after it broke down when full - 3 times. :mad: No matter what you do, you are going to have as much as a gallon or so at the bottom of the tank when you finally cut the gas lines to remove the tank. Have a container on hand. Zach |
