I recently had a fuel related problem which made me realize that I probably don't drain the bottom of the fuel tank, or the fuel filters often enough...actually almost never.
Fuel filters are easy access. The tank drain however is somewhat difficult to get at. My hand does not fit in there, so some sort of tool, is needed. I took a socket and
cut a notch in it as shown. Also shown is the complete set up I use to open and drain the tank.
I put it right next to the hyl. filter, and can turn like a screwdriver. It is a messy job though. I would like to channel the fuel falling down. As it is, it comes down on the the tractor and turns into multiple flows. It not only gets all over the tractor, but also my hand and arm.
Anyone have any other tools or methods for preforming this task?
