B4 q fuel tank and old fuel?

[Flat on my back]

Getting more of my parts donor car stripped but need to ask a few questions:-

1.how do i syphon the fuel from my b4 quattro tank, it's on the ground under the car at the moment?

2.is old fuel any good, how can i test it...no match tricks please?

1. Get a siphon hose and follow the instructions
or
couple of feet of garden hose or similar, feed it into the tank, suck a mouthful of air out the hose (not a lungful), put your thumb over the hose whilst you breathe out an repeat, once the petrol is near the end of the hose place the end in a container lower than the bottom of the tank and it will empty.

I don't know if there is a drain on the bottom of the tank, there is on some cars, worth a quick look.

2. Depends how old, are you sticking it in a lawn mower or a car boosting to 30 psi etc.

Drain tank

HIYA

Connect power supply to fuel pump and use tanks pump to drain 98 percent fuel in tank

then mop up less with cloth and paper

Drain tank

after pump drains all out tank .....remove tank sender head and remove fuel pump via moving locating tabs x2 on top of fuel pump and remove upwards out of fuel pump cage
you should be able siphon last of fuel from tank in the fuel bowl in fuel pump cage


best use pump on first fuel drain as there are hidden fuel pockets in take and pump is needed to help empty tank


Hope this makes more sence

cheers
