The tank drains through a gooseneck tube which ends in a screen that
sits at the bottom of the round dent in the middle of the tank. It's a
tough siphon through that old, probably clogged, screen. When I
drained my tank I hooked a couple jumper wires to my fuel pump, stuck
the pump outlet hose into my gas can, and hooked the jumper wire up to
a 12v battery--- away from the fuel stuff!
