This may be a stupid question but how do you guys drain the gas out of your boat?? What is the best way to do this?? Do you suck it out through the fill/vent?? Pull fuel line off and let gravity do it's job??

Let the electric fuel pump do the work ;) Pull off fuel line to the carbs, run a fuel safe hose, and pump away.
same here:drink: It pumps pretty fast ,Last time after sucking it out I jacked up the front of the boat and got another 4 gallons. Also One pickup in the tank is deeper that the other |
Anyone ever try or know anything about the product from Starbrite called "Tron", it is supposed to help with phase seperation associated with the E-10. Supposed to have enzymes that break up and micro size the "gunk?" It was mentioned in Debartolo's column in Powerboat several months ago.

I have one of my Mech.'s come pump mine dry every spring and give him the gas for his work truck. This years he's getting some old 110.

I used star-brite star-tron a few times last year, I can't say I noticed any difference, but after reading about people burning up fuel pumps and having problems with ethanol fuel getting brown and jelly I decided to be safe than sorry. Now I read another thread on speedwake that says they are all gimicks and that ethanol is pure junk...

Buy a cheap 12 volt fuel pump from Napa, I carry one in case one of my good pumps takes a crap they are like $20. Put some leads on it with allagator clips.
