real quick emergency question
Yeah I changed my fuel filter today after putting about 300 miles on it. It was very dirty, almost black. So, I decided to flush my tank and being the night owl that I am I started the project late. I leftthe tank on for simplicity purposes, drained gas and then flushed with water. Do I let the plug stay off overnight to dry out or do I put plug back in and fill with gas? Will it rust fast if it is let to dry?
help appreciated Ian |
If you think most of the water is out, I'd put a gallon of gas in it, shake it up real good, drain it, then go get a fill up and add a bottle of sta-bil or some other water remover. Should be okay.

sweet, thanks. I was thinking that but wasnt sure.
|
Just make sure that you don't skip the "add a gallon, shake, drain" step.
|
Would jumping up and down work for the shake part? It is still attached
|
*Shrug* I'd think that swaying side to side would be best. But if you're not sure, put more gas in it before you drain it.

i would use rubbing acohol sumbody had a post on this awhie ago and it is safe to burn of incase any is left (but it drys and would disepate)
