I guess you'll have to drop it and just poor it out carefully. It's worth it to try to put a slim tube into the tank through the filler neck though. Try putting a slim tube in and covering the rest of the filler neck area with a trash bag or something like that. Blow really hard into the tube then lower your end into something to catch the fuel. Maybe it'l work, maybe not. But it's not like your gonna be out anything by trying.

It won't work not even a 3/8 hose will fit in there....

I have tried it with no luck u will see what i mean once you get the tank out..

You can always removed the filler neck its a pain to do with out dropping the tank but that might be your only option .
