Re: [HSS] Digest Number 1335

Unknown

For those who don't like the taste of gas, simply put a piece of hose in

the tank with the other end in a receiver tank. Cover the inlet to the gas

tank with your hands and blow into the tank. It takes very little to get

the siphon working. You could also do the same by blocking inlet with a

rag and using your air gun. MAKE SURE the receiving tank is lower than the

gas tank.
