Thank you for posting this as it will trigger me to initiate this technique when suspect to possible water intrusion based on environment and situation.

This is interesting find, and if I remember correctly your airplane is stored outside, correct? I have found that in certain conditions, when parked in the elements, I have had an abnormal amount of water sumped from the tanks. This has only happened once or twice in the 30 some years of managing my plane. I have not tried to angle the plane to see if more water appears but I never typically have any water in my system unless I have been outside, in the hard rain, sitting for a period of time more than 3 or 4 days.

Good to hear you had a non-incident and no one was at risk during this episode.
