I got a load of bad gas in the truck. Only starts if I give it a squirt of
ether. This is getting tired in a hurry.

I've tried the siphons with the squeeze bulb. Only barely acceptable. And I
got on eof the Mr. Goodpump with the piston pump. Still only marginal.

Anyone out there tell me how to safely drain a couple galons of gas into a
gascan. Then I can go buy some of a different brand of gas, and hope it
mixes in.

That ether can routine is getting irritating.

This is Turtle.

Are you sure you got water and how much.

A little water : Fill up and put 3 bottle of costal water remover from Auto zone
and burn it out. If you ain't got no money. Get you 3 or 4 pints of rubbing
alcohol and pour in it on a full tank.

A lot of water. Get you a cordless drill and a self starting metal roofing screw
with the rubber gasket and washer. Drill a hole in the lowest part of the gas
tank and drain till just gas comes out. just tighten up screw where the gasket
and washer will cut the gas off from coming out. If you feel you will never need
it again. Clean the screw area real good and cover the screw and area around it
with J.B. Weld and it will seal it off for any gas leaking any more.
