Motorcycle Repair: draing gas tank, gas tank, gallon gas


Question
Hello Chris,

How do I drain all the gas out of the tank in order to remove it?  I have a 1982 Yamaha 650cc.

Thanks,

Sam

Answer
Hi Sam.
 Just use a syphon hose.  The type with the squeeze bulb is good enough.  Slip it donwn to the lowest corner of the tank and make sure that you have a 5 Gallon gas can for the fuel.  When it stops draining, then make sure the hose is all the way into the lowest point and pump the rest out manually.

Good luck.
