siphoning gas

Featured Replies

brother is trading in his 94 ford pu. he said i could have the gas ( about $100 ) if i siphon it out. is there going to be a problem doing this? is there a anti roll over or theft value? i got one of those siphn units at the dollar store, u know the one with a red plastic pump. looks like i need more hose though.

Sorry, don't know on the 94 ford, but i just got shivers with the flashback to the '70's oil shortages.

Had to "suck the straw" a few times between the cars I owned to have enough for travel to work.

Nice to know they sell siphon kits at the "Dollar Store". I would imagine they have the largest customer base that would need them.

Back to your question, get a large funnel and a short, squat gas can and drop the bolt from underneath the tank. I know my Ford truck has some type of anti-theft device in it, thank God. Trucks are easy targets for losers....

i think the dollar store kit is designed for the portable heaters.
