I would just pull the fill hose off at the tank and siphon the gas out. might have to jack the front of the truck up a little to make the rear of the tank the lowest point. you will get 98% of the old gas out this way. done this a few times. highdesertranger

Hmm, and I was thinking about merging this thread with the WHO POOPED today thread.

Seems like some good suggestions above. Not sure I'd have anything to add.

You guys all **** around too much.

Pull the line going to the carb and direct it to a bucket you can put a lid on. Wrap some rags around a blow gun and stick down the filler neck. It works as long as your truck has a carb.
