    These motors had a bleeder system with reed valves. All you have to do on rhe RDs etc is recover what comes out of the valves with a hose back to the boat. Just remove the bleeder valve cover. Block the passage to the leg and add a nipple to the cover to recover the fuel. Very quick and simple.

    I go a step further on my 57 35hp Johnson. After the condensed fuel is pushed to a one gallon tank, air/fuel mix follows. I have a second fuel line from the one gallon collection tank back to the air box on the carb so these vapors also get used as fuel.
