Discovered I have water in the gas tank...whats the best way to pump it out? Has about 40 gallons in it...don't like the idea of using the primer bulb to pump it out, but will if thats the best way. My forearm is aching now just thinking about that option. Any suggestions?

Use gas line like a syphoning hose can use bulb to get started

Contact Bear Marine in Pilot Point, he sells Phaser3000. This is a good additive for water problems.

We remove as much water as possible leaving the fuel, then add Phaser as needed to rid the water. Phaser3000 is formulated to absorb moisture (absorbs at a molecular state) and has no affect on performance. It's a fuel stabilizer as well as a carb and injector cleaner. Can also be used as an octane booster when larger doses are added.

On the way to work I cross paths with a waste oil collector picking up some oil from a local oil change place. A short conversation later and he's on his way to my house to pump the fuel out for me. woohoo! done in just a few minutes.
