    Default Removing gas

    Any ideas on how to remove 40 gallons of gas from the tank on my 2012 Mojo? Can't seam to locate a good siphon anywhere. Not sure if there is a tank drain ?

    If you're doing it for winterization...don't. Fill up the tank and put marine Sta-bil in it that has ethanol treatment.

    That Jiggler is da bomb!

    I know people hate to have a question answered with a questions, but what is the need to remove the gas? If its for winter storage, then add some layup treatment (think ethanol), run the engine for a few minutes, then be at ease for the winter, it will be fine.

    Is there a line off the fuel pump and run the pump and collect the gas into gas cans? I've seen too many problems with ethanol gas with or without an additive. Even the non-ethanol gas looks bad when I pump it out in the spring.

    Hey Doc I have a Stabil question for you. How long does Stabil stay usable? I have a bottle from a couple years ago I found in the shed, unopened, is it any good?
