Hey-

I have 2 year old gas in my tank. Should I drain it before I start it up for for the first time, or can I add stabilizer even though its pretty late?

Newly rebuilt motor running ~1 bar of boost.

 

drain it out... you're actually suppose to put the gasoline stabilizeer in the gas before you let it wait those long years.

 

Drain it, i hope you realize that the stabilizer goes in first, not 2 years later to somehow restore the old gas

 

either way, stabilizer or not, 2 year old gas gave up the ghost a while ago

lol yeh i realize it, but at the time I didnt think the car would be down for more than a month or two... then went off to school and now im back!

Whats the best way to drain it, i left both helms and haynes at school

 

there should be a draim bolt in the drivers side bottom corner of the tank

 

if not siphon it or get a siphon pump from autozone or whatever for like 5 bucks

Doesn't the tank have a net in there to prevent siphoning?
