I am ready to fire up my project turbo but I'd like to get most of the 18 month old gas out of the tank. I've been unsuccessful at sticking a siphon hose down the filler tube. I'd rather not deal with the PITA process of removing the tank pump but it might be possible to get a small tube through the vent port in the cover?

My other idea is disconnecting the fuel line a head of the main pump and connecting a hose out to my 5 gallon fuel cans. Then just turning the key. But I'll need to defeat the FR that kills the pump with no spark, (easy on a 240, but I don't know how to do on a 940.

Any other ideas?
