Draining the tank
« on: June 12, 2012, 06:50:30 AM »
Anyone have a good method for draining the fuel out of the tank, I'm just about to finally de-winterize my scoot (been busy) and last year when I drained the fuel out I ended up with almost a gallon on me and he floor, wasn't pretty or aromatic. The fuel petcock is at kind of a weird spot and angle and it seems like I would need a hell of a wide tubed funnel to handle the flow. Has anyone come up with a simple way around this?

Remove the fuel line at your carb, and direct that line to a container..might even want to splice in a length of tubing to keep from spilling...

..remove the petcocks vaccuum line at the "T", where it joins up with other tubing, one of which goes to the intake....

..suck your pet cock's tubing to create flow from the tank...
..every mod (action) necessitates a (reaction) mod..
