Syphoning gas


Bob*97 SLS

Hmm, if that were the case, wouldn't gas overflow when you filled the tank? If the pressure of fueling was enough to move the check ball, wouldn't a siphon hose have enough pressure when you push it in to move the check ball? The only logical explanation I can think of is that the check ball doesn't move down far enough to allow a siphon hose to snake around it.

duh, I got it backwards. the ball is inside the plastic gas tank inlet nipple. the inlet nipple is horizontal but i would have to assume it is spring loaded. otherwise what would keep it seated?
