Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Can you do this or is there some type of anti siphon protection?

This could be your gateway to an exciting new career in mobile advertising!

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Funny but I'd like to gas out of my gas tank prior to it going bad.

why not sta bil, move on with life?

Did that a year ago but doesn't treat it forever in the case of a long storage situation.

POST 6Original post

How much is in there? Is drive/idle until empty an option? If not, you can probably snake some 1/4 inch pvc tubing down there and let it out.

POST 7Original post

Read a post here once that the 996 has a diaphragm or something of the sort in the filler tube. The post had something to do with NOT being able to get fuel in the car at all. May want to check there, sorry didn't save it. But given your location I'd blast around Mosport a few times. The back straight always emptied my tank!

POST 9Original post

Access the top of the tank and fuel pump. Disconnect the fuel line and attach a separate hose. Turn the ignition to on but not to start so the fuel pump runs. Catch fuel in a suitable container and dispose of properly.

Yep that's what I would do

POST 12Original post

Or pop off the fuel line in front of the filter, turn ignition on and let it pump into a bucket.

Too bad about the long storage situation. Not good for the tank and fuel pump and hoses in the tank to remain high and dry for long.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
