I don't have a lot of time for this project but I figure a small investment by me will provide lots of useful info to the people who know what they're doing.
I pulled the drain plug on both tanks and drained a sample into a mason jar.
There was no debris, no gunk and no moisture. Just clean, amber colored gas with only a slight turpentine smell.
Given the rate of flow I suspect there might be a lot of gas in there.
I put the mason jar to the marine fuel pump and it move fuels with gusto.
Then I reversed the hoses in an attempt to get the pump to prime the lines back to the tank.
That revealed a leak in the hose at an inline filter just forward of the tank.
Should i drain the tanks?
What do i need to know about Jacking it up?
