topdogcattle, :welcome: about...

You can always siphon out the fuel into some other container to drain it. If you have a primer bulb, take the engine connector end off and pump the bulb to get the fuel flowing and let it drain the tank into some other container. And if that other container is lower then the tank, it will empty the tank. I personaly have never seena valve drain on a boat tank myself. Others may have, but I haven't. JMHO

If the tank has an anti-siphon valve in it you will not be able to drain the tank as was described. You can remove the valve and replace it with a standard barb fitting and hose and then siphon. Just make sure you replace the anti-siphon valve when done. It is installed for a reason.

Just find and remove the fuel sender. Then siphon into other gas cans for disposal or use in whatever you wanted.
