Hey guys!! ....quick question. Can I get the fuel out of my gas tank by disconnecting the fuel line at my carb and cranking the engine ?? (Harbor Freight has a real cheap 'transfer pump'...

I'd get a T (some hardware store NPT pipe nipples (probably 1/8 NPT) and a T would would work fine & black fittings are slightly cheaper than galvanized fittings) & T it into the neoprene fuel line between pump and the carb and get 6ft of 5/16" neoprene fuel line & run it to a big jug & idle it & it'll be empty in minutes. EDIT oops! just hit me that the gas must be bad so you would not want to be introducing it into the carb!

This ^^^^^ Years ago on the race car we had an extra fuel cell cap with a valve stem inserted to drain the fuel. Works good for everything except a small amount in the end...maybe a quart or so...

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
