    Default Petrol

    Hry guys I have a small issue at the moment. I have crashed my car about 2 weeks ago so I am staring to deal with it but now I would like to take the fuel out of my tank because I have a full tank and I need to get to the fuel sender. Would anyone know how I could get the fuel out of my car into another car without syphoning it out. I tried this and nearly threw up every where LOL. Any help wuld be great.
    Thanx guys

    You can get a hand pump to syphon it so you don't have to get fuel in your mouth. Other than that maybe disconect a fuel line just before the fuel filter and run the fuel pump?
    (I don't know if that will work, it will probably take ages)

    get a drill and drill straight into the tank, ensure bucket is underneath, once empty, weld it up!

    nah DON'T do that!

    as above, get the hand pump
