1999 boxster

Hi,
Did you have to drain the gas? i just got a 99, sat for 4 years 1/2 tank of gas. it looks like the only option is to unhook filter turn on the ignition and get it out that way, at least before i unscrew the gas plug.
i made the mistake if putting a 3/8" hose down the gas tank, don't do it-it gets caught and took forever to back it out.
This car had way to much oil in it, probably explains all the white smoke billowing out the back, i'm gonna replace the AOS and clean the throttle body. i can't keep it running
more than a 10-15 seconds so i figure i'll clean up a few items 1st.
Maybe that will help.
