Easiest Way To Drain Fuel Tank?
make a test lead or jumper wire that you can power the fuel pump with and take them fuel lines off, and power the pump. should drain right out. although i used a hose w/ a shrader valve on it and put it onto the shrader valve on the fuel rail and drained it that way.
Good Luck,

if you think someone has put something harmful in your gas tank you may not want to run it through your fuel lines/pump/filter/etc...honestly, if the car does have a siphoning prevention screen your probably going to have to pull the tank and clean it out...actually, either way your probably going to have to do that, since just draining it is going to leave whatever it is on the bottom of the tank to get swirled up the next time you put gas in it.

siphoning on our tanks aren't easy. i tried it when i dropped my tank to put in my new fuel pump. i think there are some sort of baffles in the tank which are damn near impossible to get past with a hose. so i just dropped it as is cause there was very little gas in it. i just made sure i was very careful.
