Draining the fuel tank
Just a question for you techies. Is it possible to use the fuel rail schrader valve location to empty the fuel tank instead of siphoning gas? Can you remove the schrader core and just turn on the ign to start the pumps to dump into a large can/container with a hose. I realize the higher pressure could be an issue but am thinking out loud.

here you go: http://www.zr1specialist.com/HAT%20W...Tanker%201.pdf I'm glad you mentioned the draining. I've nearly a full tank of fuel in a car that I've decided to retire for the summer and I'll probably attempt a similar procedure for removing it. Last edited by WVZR-1; 05-17-2013 at 01:32 AM. |

Thanks for the info. I found Marc's article and it will work well for me. Just gotta be careful around gas.
