I DON'T THINK IT WOULD HURT ANYTHING
IF IT'S STILL IN THE RESERVOIR AND IT'D MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER HAVING IT OUT
YOU MIGHT TRY SOMETHING LIKE A TURKEY BASTER OR EVEN A PUMP HEAD (LIKE WE INSTALL GEAR OIL WITH--'CEPT DON'T USE IT IN THE JUG!) THEY ARE ABOUT $4 TO $6 AT AN AUTO PARTS STORE
A PIECE OF FUEL LINE SHOVED INSIDE YOUR SHOP-VAC'S HOSE....THEN DUCT TAPED TO FORM A GOOD SEAL.....STICK THE FUEL LINE IN THE RESERVOIR THEN TURN ON THE SHOP-VAC
THE ONLY OTHER OPTION I CAN SEE IS TAKING THE LOWEST HOSE OFF OF THE RESERVOIR AND LETTING IT DRAIN
ANY OF THIS SOUND FEASIBLE?
