Gas Disposal, Transfer or Treatment
Original Message   Mar 8, 2006 12:12 pm
Is there a simple contraption available to siphon gas out of a snowthrower tank?  My thoughts were to transfer gas from the snow thrower to my portable tank used for the lawn mower.  Also, I briefly read either here (or somewhere) about a product that treats old gas stored from the previous winter so that it can be used without damaging the carburetor/engine.  I think I would rather remove/transfer gas to the lawnmower.  Here in New England, it's not unsual to be removing snow and then mow the lawn within a few weeks of each other.

Lubrication:  What's out there to apply grease to the auger fittings?

Thanks in advance.

Go buy a turkey baster. Long plastic tube with rubber bulb at
the top. Squeeze bulb,stick in tank,suck up the old gas-repeat till empty.
Put old gas in car or truck.Gets diluted down pretty good.
