i have syphoned out all the gas but the last bit which is approzpximately 1 litre from what i can see with a flash light on the outside looking at the gas moving in the white nylon gas tank.

how can I eliminate that last bit from the tank?

i tried air pressure with small tube to bottom of tank without success.

thanks

Try a rag on a bit of cord... Soak it up. I assume it's a built in tank that you can't pick up and turn downside up...

I zip tie a hose to a stick, use my Moller fluid extractor and suck up the last bit, through the fuel gauge fitting. then using the same stick, zip tie a rag to it and mop up the last bit. Followed by a bottle of isopropyl. Mop that out and you are done.
