    Removal of the sediment bowl tip

    Maybe everyone knows this, but anytime I removed the sediment bowl I always spilled gas no matter how careful I was. I cut a 16oz water bottle in half to catch the gas spilling from the bowl. I unscrew the nut and swing the bail aside while still holding the bowl in place and then just let the bowl drop into the bottle. You get a little spillage, but almost all of the gas stays in the bottle.

    Hope this helps someone!

    Just An Idea

    An oil adsorb cloth will sop up any gasoline spillage. Maybe you put one under the work area to adsorb any spillage?

      Luckily I still have a Grand Daughter in diapers, I tend to "borrow" a few new ones from her, she doesn't mind

      They work and are handy to have.

        I've learned to work with the premise that I'm going to spill some fuel. I put a small towel under the work area, and hang it on the lifeline once the spill is over.
