My concern has been for the stability and octane rating of the fuel in the tank remaining viable. The carbs are dry as they drain when the motor has been tilted for about a week.
I am trying to pump from the filler tube. I did treat the fuel with a heavy dose of Stabil Marine fuel stabilizer. Treated for a full tank not realizing it was 3/4 full. I can access the sending unit. Didn't think of that. Do you think the Stabil will keep the fuel usable until @ February or March?
Hi. I have a 1997 Lowe Silhouette deck boat that has been sitting since February due to medical issues. I want to siphon out the fuel (3/4 tank full) as it will probably be spring before I can take the boat out again. My problem is I can not get the fuel to flow trying to siphon. I have used two...

I'd like to install a 12 volt misting system on my boat but need advice from folks who have already done this. What equipment, filters, etc. is needed? Thanks in advance.
