Yesterday I replaced the valve under the fuel tank after draining the tank. I found out that there is about a pint of gas which does not come out until you remove the valve. At that point it comes out all over everything, and gives the starter motor a good drenching. I don't want to take that apart to check. I just want to wait long enough so that any gas which got in has evaporated. The temperature may have a bearing on the time factor. It is running about 30 degrees. The tractor is in a well ventilated barn.

How soon is it going to be safe to start up?
