Raptor has a large fuel tank. Sticking a fuel line down the fuel fill is difficult now with the addition of the ball that blocks fuel from pissing out if you roll the truck. I thought about using an extra fuel pump to suck the fuel out, using the line that attaches to the fuel filter. Would this work trying to suck the fuel through the fuel pump that is in the tank? IF not, could you rig up a way to turn on the fuel pump in the fuel tank to push the fuel out?

Are you asking because you need to drain the tank or for use as additional fuel storage for a generator for coronavirus pandemonium? I haven’t tried myself but thought I’d still be able to get a small fuel hose down the neck for generator use if needed. Are you saying you’ve tried using a 1/2” line or similar and it won’t get all the way down into the tank?

I have not tried to get past the ball in the filler neck. I would like to be able to get gas for my dirtbike or generator and was curious if anyone had luck getting at 30 plus gallons?
