Removing fuel

[Smokey]

Think it's been asked recently but what is the quickest way of removing the fuel from my stripped car. Damaging pipes etc not a concern as it's getting scrapped anyway.

Cheers.

Probably disconnecting the fuel pipe from the filter, and using the electric pump would be easiest.

I found easiest way into fuel tank is where filler goes in. Three nuts round filler cap and a clip either end of rubber pipe linking filler to tank gets you straight in then either syphon or use a pump of some description

There may be a bolt or two securing filler pipe to body but I can't remember.

Make sure its well ventilated, if not outside.

Obvious, but must be said, dont cause sparks,

And don't smoke while performing the petrol siphoning ritual either...

Will the fact that I occasionally spontaneously combust be an issue?!

Haha, that is quite relevant!
