Title: Draining fuel tank
Post by: pistol pete on March 29, 2020, 09:22
How do..

I need the change handbrake cables on the sprint car. 

It has 3/4 tank of fuel  :o

So I needs to drain it out. Easiest way I can see is remove line to engine from hard line and connect hose to fuel cans..
So is there an easier way if not what's easiest way to get the fuel pump to run to empty it for me.

Thanks

You could take the fuel pump out, and syphon it via the aperture.

Your suggestion ain't bad though.  The pump should run when the car is switched on??  I think...
