Siphon Camaro Gas Tank! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

:( I'm frustrated, got headers on. Went to tune, not able to d/t bad krogers gas. I thought it was good. I just tried to siphon the bad gas out, but wasn't able to. Is there an antisiphon piece in the camaro tank. I'm suppose to be trying to tune again tomorrow. I have a tank full of gas.

Dunno but the gas from Kroger, Sams Club, and other food type stores is always the cheapest crap they can find. Its fine for the wifes corolla but I wouldn never put it in the Camaro.

I have read on the site before that there is an anti siphon valve in the neck.Might want to run out the tank near empty fill er up with the good stuff then get the tune.Have not heard of any other way to get it out unless you drop the tank. Good luck.

Sorry, cannot agree. Here in Richmond I use Costco and Kroger, with no issues, car runs great with my mods.
