siphoning gas from tank

[tracer1]

Anyone siphoned gas from their Nitro. Can it be siphoned by removing the sending unit?

Why not take the fuel line off the motor and put a small fuel pump on it from a salvage yard. If not I'd just take it off the motor and if required add to it to get it to flow just pump the primer bulb.

Yea, that could work, Thanks

I siphon all my gas out as part of winterizing. Just put a tube in fill and suck for a second.

I was going to siphon out of the filler tube but the siphon tube would only go so far, like there was a blockage to prevent it. So I did remove the sending unit & removed the gas from there. Took about 10 minutes or so with the electric pump. Put in 10 gals & Don's cocktail, removed spark plugs, put a teaspoon of oil in each cylinder & everything seems good, so far.
