    I was just going to use the gas in another vehicle since it's going to sit for a couple weeks.

    Problem's been solved for a hot minute.

            lol how do you think that you can't remove the fuel that way.....

            like I said, if you take the hose off the fuel pump and slide one on that goes into your handy gas can then its out of the car

                sure he has removed the gas from his car but others will have to someday ;)

                    I thought you were talking about removing the fuel from the gas lines to the motor.

                        Huh, a couple weeks...there's no need to drain it for a couple weeks. Unless you need the gas that badly...

                                Nope, just add some fuel stabilizer and all will be good for up to a year.

                                    After seeing what's in my lawn mower carburetor I wouldn't trust stabilizers either.

                                            I just didn't feel like putting $50 worth of gas into my roommate's Land Rover. :)

                                            I caved anyway.

                                                Took two weeks to get but it work fine.

                                                $62

                                                Had to trim down the coller about an 1/8" to make it fit.

                                                        That looks like a full size key in that cap. You could probably get the cap re-keyed so that your car key would fit it.
