Sometimes the need arises to completely empty the car fuel tank. For example, after refueling with poor-quality fuels or during repairs associated with dismantling of the tank and fuel system. You can do this in several ways.
1
The easiest "grandfather" way. We will need a hose, preferably transparent, and a container for the fused gasoline. We skip a piece of twine through the hose and at the end of the twine tie a kind of piston (a piece of rags or wool). The size of the piston is selected so that it slides in the hose with a little effort. Gently skip the hose through the filler neck directly into the fuel tank. Quickly pull the sword from the hose - gasoline flows into the cooked container. In fairness, we note that this method is suitable for cars, where it is possible to shove the tube directly into the benzobac.

On modern cars, it is possible to drain fuel through the feed fuel line. To do this, disconnect the feed tube from the fuel ramp and wear the hose on it. Tightly secure the hose on the tube with a homutical, then we lower the tube into the container. Then the ignition should be turned on and the fuel pump rolls all gasoline into the container. This method should be used carefully so as not to deflate all the gasoline "dry." Gasoline pump does not like to "dry" running and may fail. If the pump or fuel filter in your car installed outside the tank (under the body), the remaining fuel can be drained by removing the fuel pump suction intake. residual fuel will drain by gravity.

If the fuel tank of your car is equipped with a drain plug, then we use the easiest way - Unscrew the cap. We should not forget to open the fuel cap of the tank, so as not to create a vacuum in it, preventing draining fuel.

And finally, the most inconvenient way. You must open the top cover of the tank. Then remove the gas station with the label assembly. We get access to the inner space of the fuel tank and with the help of a special hand pump pumping the fuel. Not everyone has such a tool, so this method applies only when it is impossible to use the above.
Well, all - we hope that these brief recommendations will someday you will definitely be useful. Good luck on the roads!
