    I need to drain the gas out of my tank of a 2016 tundra, it’s been sitting for over a year. I was wondering if their is a drain plug on gas tank?
    I’m not to mechanically inclined to drain it in a aspect of doing it through the fuel pump like some people have suggested in other threads. So I was wondering if anyone knows if their is a drain plug? Or if their is a way around siphoning the gas out? Any insight would be appreciated thanks

    No drain plug and it has an anti-siphon valve.

    Depending how much fuel is in it, I'd dump a bottle or 2 of HEET, shake the truck and run it. If the tank is low, HEET, fill it up, and just run that tank all the way down.
