I'd like to be able to rain the fuel from my generator's tank but they

have
made it a pure PITA to get the line off at either end. I once had a link

to
a company that sold all sorts of fittings. Anyone have a link for such
hardware??
TIA


Is there a drain on the carburator float bowl? Some have one. If so you
*might* be able to drain the gas tank completely using that drain. If not
perhaps you can just remove the float bowl and let the gas run out of it.

Personally I've usually found it easiest to remove the fuel line just past
the fuel shut-off valve which makes it easy to empty the gas tank into a gas
can but in my case I've always been able to access that particular part of
the fuel line.
