syphoning fuel

as my sport is standing and it has over half a tank of fuel in i want to syphon most off whats the best way.

im nearly sure their is a anti syphonin gard i think best was is try get to 1st fule filter just at back wheel let pipe of at tak side with filler cap open should work

Dave when u've done that turn the ignition on n let the fuel pump do it for ya mate. :wink:

sounds like a good idea need to replace fuel filter anyway so that can be done at the same time

Oh you battery and starter are going to love you :lol:

ah well better than nothing

Dont even need to crank it over............turn ign on too stage 2 so u have dash lights n the pump goes into a kinda primer mode to build up pressure n since the pipe will be off there wont be any pressure so in theory it should keep pumpin :wink:

This guy has pinched fuel before :lol:

On a side note and for future reference the 2.2 pump only starts when you turn the key to stage 3 (to start the car) and continues running until you switch off the engine.

or you can do what i do and that is discoonect the fuel line from fuel filter and then get a bit more pipe and attach the it to fuel pump. then get to long bits off wire and a battery.then connect on side off the wire to the battery and the other side to the fuel pump wiring.then just let it drain.
