| John,  
        Throw a clean rag in the boot.  When its time to start up, remove 
the gas cap, place the rag over the opening, your mouth to the rag and 
give it a big long blow.
  I'm getting ready to pull out my tank and that's how I got the flow 
going through the pipe to the waiting gas can up front.  If you have one 
of those new-fangled vapor recovery systems this won't work nearly as 
well.
                         
                        Regards, Glen Byrns
