The tank inspector drowned...WTF??
Tank looks great except for the trapped tourist and those pellets...not sure what they are from.
Any way to empty the rest of the tank (without a mess) besides sucking a hose? I rode it beyond the warning light, but there is still about 1/2 gallon left.

Dumped mine into a 5 gal bucket. Then used a suction hose. For the final bit I taped a big handful of blue paper shop towels to a long screwdriver and sopped it up. Had a small amount of sediment that I got with a shop vac.
Which hole did you dump it out of? top spout area? Just don't want to make a mess...

Bottom then top. Whichever will work
Before I cut apart the new fuel pump...any reason I should really be replacing it other than "I'm already in here"? I can still return it to amazon and save myself the $90...
I also have to order a pre-screen because Oreilys website lied and they want $20 for that little bugger!

I sprayed it out, but it's another one of those "since I'm in here" ideas...

Does it matter on polarity from the 9V battery for the fuel injector cleaning process...which wire hooks to which injector terminal?

injector polarity should make no difference they are just basically a relay
Any idea where this thread is

To save the paint, I picked up a 20$ oil vacuum pump from harbor freight and just threw a hose and zip tied it to the end. put the Tank on a chair or tall box, pull the gas up the tube until you're a few inches from the vac pump and pull it off below the tank height so the pressure differential dumps it into a bucket.
Save the gas to either filter and throw back in, or play it safe and soak some old parts in your new cleaning fluid. I used mine to backflush the old fuel pump filter to get all the plastic bits out so they don't end up in the injectors if the in-line filter fails
