Syphoning gas

[JohnnyB]

All my previous boats have had flat bottom tanks that were easy to syphon out with a shaker syphon through the tank fill. My Check has a steel tank contoured to the hull. What is the best way to syphon? I was thinking a length of fuel line and primer bulb.

Want to get old gas out that previous owner left in.

as long as the hose goes below the hull it should work. i.e. near ground level into gas cans.

Electric transfer pumps are affordable. Makes the job a breeze

Biggest problem is getting the syphon to the bottom of the tank because of shapes and geometries
