1994 Ford Explorer 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

I have a 1994 Ford Explorer Sport 2dr that has not been driven in quite a while and was not sure if the gas that is in it has gone bad. I do not want to try to start it without draining the old gas out but am not sure how to do that and also how to clean the tank and lines as well as possible so I can start using the car ASAP.

I am not sure how quickly gas deteriorates and if I put good gas on top of the bad will it eventually clean out the problem or will it have to done by flushing and or removing the tank.

What can I expect

The car has been sitting without being started for almost two years. There must be a special tool to
remove the extremely hard to remove fuel filter or is there some other trick or technique that I need to know?

It may run with the old fuel, but it won't run too good. As far as the fuel filter, there are line wrenches that are used to remove them if they are bolted. Let me know if you have the quick connect.
