What the hell I'll just top it off. We leave park and eat, get on our way home and notice its running really rough. Engine light came on, and had a misfire on cyl. 8.
How, can I drain the tank without dropping it full with 19 gal is useless gas? I bought a ciphone tube and it gets stuck at what seems to the entry into the tank...

'Sigh'

If it is bad gas, ask the station how they want to handle it.

This exact thing happened to me, turned out the tank driver mixed diesel in the 93 octane tank. First work through the corporation that owns the station and let them know you had a problem, it most likely happened to others as well.

The tank will need to be completely drained, Mo's did mine but I'm sure somebody local can help.

In the end, the station refunded the tank of gas, reimbursed me for Mos work, and paid for the replacement tank of gas
