Can anyone remember or tell me where I can buy one of these spouts? Someone made them for draining these tanks. It came with a regular cap, but had a spout to invert and drain the tank. Thanks.

You could take the end off a tank hose and use the primer bulb to start a syphon and simply drain it.It does take some time to empty a tank(10 or 15 minutes)and keep in mind you have to keep the end of the hose below the tank your draining for the syphon to work.

OMC made as an accessory, a cap that had a flexable metal spout. You replaced the regular cap with the pour spout. Air bled into the tank by the loose rubber sleeve around the spout. No I won't sell mine. 30+ years old and works the best.<br />Backfire
