I worked on purging all the gasoline from the tank last night, using first the in-tank electric pump, then resorting to a manual piston transfer pump to get the dregs out. Then I flushed 3 times with diesel. Today, I'll put in diesel for fuel and plump the engine. From the way I was able to draw through the un-energized electric pump, I think the mechanical feed pump on the engine should be sufficient. I might wire in a momentary switch to the pump to make bleeding the system easy.
