So, due to a litany of odd circumstances, the "ethanol enhanced" gas in my '02 Z-28 has sat long enough to "spoil". Other than removing the tank or using the fuel pump to pump out the gas though a fuel line, does anyone have any trick to deal effectively with this old gas? I have to deal with this before I'm able to do other necessary repairs and prep the car for the season. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

I have to deal with this before I'm able to do other necessary repairs and prep the car for the season. Thanks in advance for your suggestions. I just completed the same thing this past weekend. I already had a access cover cut in the hatch for easy fuel pump access. I bought a 15$ hand siphon pump from Autozone and pumped into 2- 5 gallon buckets. Now, I have to figure out how to get rid of all the rust I see thru the fuel pump hole. Just bought 5 gallons of vinegar. Probably need 5 more gallons. I'm not sure if this will work but I'm gonna try. I've dropped the tank before and it really sucks! I removed mine because my second fuel pump just quit. Its a track car so it sits for long periods of time without running and I think this kills the fuel pump. |
