I am flying a friend's RV-4 right now. It has a gascolator. If you select the right or left tank and drain the gascolater, not much comes out. However, if you select the right or left tank and turn on the fuel pump and the Master Switch, all kinds of fuel comes out! That is how we drain the sump, under pressure.
In the air, the gascolator is the low point. If you wanted to have the gascolator being the low point in your fuel system while in the hangar, build an appropriate size bench with chocks fastened to the "seat" of the bench. Now, chock the mains, and lift the tailwheel up onto the bench and the gascolator will now be the low spot in the fuel system. The bench is handy for cleaning the belly too.
Cheers, Pete
