Any suggestions for draining old gas? It’s a great running ski… I just let it sit for 2 years without using it and don’t want to attempt firing it up with old gas

I have used a vacuum extractor like used for oil changes. Put the tube down the fill port to suck it out.
when I did this with my 65 Pontiac due to rust in original tank. I let it sit in covered 5 gallon buckets, sediment settled, and I poured it through paint strainers only lost about a gallon.
if I were you suck some of it out see what it looks like. I’ve had older gas that was fine.

Use a drum siphon.
