My buddy was filling his 2001 SRX 700 with gas and he heard a pebble roll into the gas tank. Anyone know how to get this out...

siphon the gas out and take a shop vac and suck it out.....maybe that would work
well with a maglite and a grabber(long skinny tool that has little hands that come out and hang onto things), they are abut $2 at harbor frieght stores, you could fish it out thru the opening, if not, drain all the gas out and take the tank off and shake it upside down......

yeah..it was a magic pebble...LOL umm this pebble from what I'm told was in the bottom of a jerry can...So it did not travel from the ground but from the red plastic can, to the yellow snoot, and then down to the gas tank..Hope that clears things up for ya..
