Ok, the other day I needed to empty the snow blower of its gas. I
always spill it or get it all over my hands, so here's what I did. I
took a 1/4" ID plastic hose and put one end into the gas tank. The
other end went into the gas can where I wanted the gas to go. I then
used my air hose (from the compressor) to push air into the gas tank ...
my hand helped to seal the opening around the 2 hoses going into the gas
tank opening. Voila ... the gas was pushed through the 1/4" tube into
the can. Actually, once it starts, siphon takes over and the air hose
probably isn't needed. And, you need to get the hose into the lowest
part of the tank.

I shot some ******* in about 1972 that was siphoning gas on our farm.

Caught him in the act... he hightailed it away in a '50 chev...

I will shoot your ass again if catch you, so you better stay the ****

away

from here, unless you've changed yer ways.


Sorry, but that was not me as I was nowhere near your farm. Besides, you
are a lousy shot and missed and buy cheap gas.




Aww....you're no fun anymore, Ed...

To answer Chris's question though...dont know how old his rig is so it may
not be possible...depending...but what I usually do in these cases is I will
use the rigs own fuel pump..as generally anymore there is an electric pump
inside the gas tank....just disconnect the fuel line at the carb or fuel
rail, drop it into a jug and turn on the ignition....
