You can drain the tank by just pulling off a hose underneath it - make sure you have a clamp handy, and plenty of ventilation :) Now that the others mentioned it, I recall my fasty also had a fuel spill issue because of the filler tube - I fixed it using Fiberglass and so far, so good. I heard fiberglass is supposed to be fuel-proof, but never got any real confirmation on that. The hole was at the top so I wasn't too concerned. Does anyone else know?
