Every Cessna I've ever flown, including my 75 150, has a handle next to the dipstick. Works great. I've never found water there, but regularly get at least a couple of drops out of the wings after it's rained. I expect to get quite a bit out tomorrow since it was just plain nasty last week. -- Steve 33...@swbell.net N3343V- '75 C150M N205FT- KR1 #6170 He who seeks will find, and he who knocks will be let in.
