You know, if you jack one corner of the car up you can get the gas to all go in to the opposite corner of the tank. Just make sure your syphon tube is long enough to get in to that corner and have the other end below the level of the tank. Suck on the tube until you get gas up to your mouth, put your thumb on the end of the tube, and put the tube in to your can that is below the tank level. Take your thumb off the tube and gravity will do the rest. And if you taste a little gas it won't kill you.
