I have a 92 Ranger with the tanks under the seat. Due to some issues I have not fished in about 2 years. I don't think there's much gas in it. If I top of the tanks with fresh gas would it be OK if it mixed with what is already in the tanks?

You’ll still have bad gas, only more of it. Pump out what you can before adding any

If the carbs weren't drained. The tanks are the least of your problem. Especially with modern alcohol mix gasoline. It'll leave a teal green looking funk in the bowl. It'll clog jets.

How do I get the old gas out of the tanks? They are under the seats.

I use an old fuel pump and some tubing. Pull it dry, throw in another couple gallons and do it one more time. Then I blow air through the tank overnight before refilling w fresh NON ETHANOL fuel. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/08/full-107507-236345-fuel_tank_clean.jpeg)
