How do I drain my fuel tank?
Hi, I recently noticed my 2000 996 C2 cab had developed a missfire, thinking back to its last fuel stop, I remembered finding it very difficult to fill without the pump cutting out. The following week I noticed the petrol station was closed to have new tanks installed. I spoke to a colleague who lives in near the petrol staion who told me that there were rumours that the previous tanks had been contaminated with water.
I have tried fuel additives to absorb the water but no joy. Theres an anti syphon valve so I can't suck the fuel up the filler neck & I've tried accessing the fuel pipe underneath, where it enters the filter, but there seems to be a some kind of restriction preventing me from syphoning.
Any ideas gratefully received
