I cant siphon it because the taste of fuel actually makes me vomit. (Yep go on, call me a weak woman mechanic but at least i still passed at the top of my class) I ended buying a siphone pump and siphoning the tank. Those things are awesome. No fuel in mouth :-) The fuel pump was stuffed...

Then why not state that instead of just saying siphon it. It has 3/4 in the tank but waiting on my car stands then gona jack it from the front to push all the fuel to the back of the tank & try it that way

You might want to read my post more clearly as i did say a way WITHOUT siphoning it out.

I was thinking that but bash plate sticks out just a bit further than the screw. Might have to see if i can get a funnel or something so i can undo one and not have it run down into the bash plate.

Where is the fuel PUMP located on a VS V8 Statesman please? And has anyone drained the fuel tank without dropping the whole tank or syphoning it? Iv undone the hoses from the front of the tank (where the fuel filter sits inside the tank) but it hasnt drained out enough. Hoping to drain the...

Have finally come to find today that by taking the air pod filter off and spraying fuel straight into throttle body, its runs like a dream on full acceleration so need to locate the pump and now that i know the filter should be replaced that often, i will do that too. Thanks heaps for the help...

Just checked the book and the filter & pump were both replaced in 2011

I put about 10-15L of fresh fuel in it the other day to get it running as it had been siphoned in those 4 months so i got it with no fuel anyway. I just had it running again and it ran for about 30 seconds this time but theres no revs/acceleration

Ohhh ok. Will give that a go. Thanks Checked accelerator cables and its all fine but a slight slack but wheb its started theres no revs when i push the accelerator

Didnt even think to run it without a battery. How did you prime the fuel pump to fill the lines? Will give it a go. Its still cranking even now. I just had it started another 2 times after not touching it for 2 days. It runs for about 10 seconds each time. Im coming to notice there...

The battery died cause it wasnt powerful enough to keep a v8 running when its only for a 4cyl. It has spark. But whats the fuel pulse? I know its getting fuel as it was running

It sat without a battery for 4 months, borrowed a battery from a 4cyl to put in it, took a bit but got it started then it died (of course 4cyl battery wasnt powerful enough to keep it running), got a brand new battery and now still cant get the car to start. Checked for any error codes and its...

firstly she was in thailand for her mothers 60th birthday and yeah she'd taken some friends with her. secondly it was a prank gone bad. her so called "friends" put it in her handbag. she ran coz she believed she'd done nothing wrong. after she was arrested one of her friends went to the police...
