Bad Gas
« on: September 23, 2009, 01:53:55 PM »
Like a moron I did not add the stabilizer  :banghead:to the gas at the end of last season and I had just finally got the floor done my seats back for that last river run over labor day and ended up having to float my boat for 3 hours to the closest boat launch down river all because of bad gas, I was wondering what is the easiest way of dumping the tanks with out taking them out.

Siphon!! Or if you have a electric fuel pump just unhook the line from the carb and turn the key on!

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Siphon hose is the cheapest way I can think of, you could always get a vacuum pump and go that route.

I'd go with the electric fuel pump.  Even if you don't have one buy a cheapie, you'll have
it for your next brain fart  ::)
