the screen is typically at the bottom of the fill pipe right where it meets the tank. Which for most vehicles is after 2 bends so it's not likely that you'll get in there with a screw river.

Just kicking out possibilities. I have knowledge of those 2 procedures so they sprung to mind to kick out to the medical people.
I have a kit with a trach in it, and I was thinking that the size tube that would be good for siphoning is a bit large for a trach.Originally Posted by ditchmedic
Sniper, you actually tried the punch method? I would think the screen would be metal, even if thin, and a flexible plastic tube stuck in there a foot or two with a couple bends would have much punching force, even for a thin metal screen. Besides, you'd think that if they designers were trying to beat siphoners, they'd at least have tried that.
BTW, I had to siphon diesel from a truck before dropping the tank once, the old fashioned way.
Everything I ate tasted like diesel for 3 days.

I thought about that after the fact and never made it back here to mention. The size hose most siphons would use are probably larger than a trachea.
WWMD?what would Macguyver do?

Essayons!
yeah, I've done it many times, but I use a chunk of clear PVC 1/2 hose. One you can see the gas coming and usually get it out of your mouth in time, an it is rigid enough to punch through quite easily. Around here their called Redneck credit cards, and just about everyone I know has siphoned gas from their own vehicles for some piece of equipment at some time or another... usually on a fairly regular basis. lol

I would keep it in a Vehicle tool kit, not my foot carry BOB/GHB. Waste of space mostly.
I've done it on an older vehicle once, to change the fuel filter. Was a learning experience, one I'm not eager to repeat.
Well, that's what I wanted to know. I would've thought something more sturdy would be used, but maybe it's just a "feel good" measure.
Might have to add some of that to my vehicle kit.
