ok, so the car (64 corvair) has been sitting for 31 years with a half a tank. so expired gunk gas was expected. i tried to cyphine the tank but only a quarter came out. i was advised to disconnect the 2 line to the carbs and turn the car over, letting the pump pull it out and drain into a bucket.well doing so i the 2 lines (rusted) ripped in half, fine, mkes it easier to drain. i began to trun the car over, nothing. i then disconected the line and took a vaccum to the line hoping, nothing. i know there is a mesh screen in the tank. could that be clogged with garbage, or could it be the line clogged with garbage. if the tank, how do i remove it. its in a front "firewall" position. how hard to replace the line. in any case trying to bend a straight piece of tubing wihout a kink through the rear firewall isnt going to be fun, can i use a rubber line? or should i just push it over a cliff?
