I use an extra holley electric fuel pump we had laying around. You can buy cheap ones from summit racing. They are worth it to have around. Hook up two long hoses to it...and some long wires with big alligator clips on the ends. Put the one end of the hose deep in the fuel tank...hook up the wires to the battery....and get some cans ready...lol.
If you really feel creative...you can hook up a nice switch in the positive wire.

Whats a "cadillac" converter?
Burning raw gas with an open flame into the atmosphere defineately is not EPA approved(since you brought them up). Can you order a cadillac converter on any GM car or truck, or just Cadillac's? Who said anything about pouring gas into the ground? This reminds me of a bit of advice a fellow board member here, freely advertises..."Never argue with an idiot, they'll drag you down to their level & beat you with experience."

Catalytic converter, does that help your infantile mind phuck-tard? Burning gas into the air is a helluva lot better than pouring it onto the ground jackass. You're allegedly a boater, where does ground water end up? Yup, that's right... THE LAKE/OCEAN, where WE boat!
Complain about semantics and be persnickety prick. The bottom line is you were wrong, you're embarrassed, and you're picking on anything you can get your hands on to save face. At the end of the day you're just making yourself look more dumb.

Only on OSO that a simple question about pumping out old gas can turn into a sword fight. Put'em away and zip your flies back up boys.

I know someone that was in the bulk gas handling business for most of his career. They always had vast expanses of concrete around them where they worked. He told me once that when he had a small amount of gas he needed to get rid of, such as a 55 gallon drum, he would just tip the drum over on its side, let all the gas run out on the concrete, and it would evaporate & be gone in 10-20 minutes, depending on the temperature, wind, etc.

The "epa" has destroyed boating given us spotted owls, manitee zones, no wake areas and all the other junk, if they want us driving cars that get 30+ mpg what do you think there feeling of a offshore boats is that gets 1 mpg
