Hey guys, been looking at my workshop manual and so far no luck, i just want to know how do i drain my fuel tank, ive tried putting a hose in the filler hole but no luck, i thought there might of been a plug under the car but not there either, i think it may be under the rear passenger sear but im having trouble with that too does anyone know where the plug is on a MY00 and how toget to it

No drain plug bro

One way is by disconnecting the return fuel line from rails & running into a jerry can. Fire up engine & it will pump out.
If no engine is in, just run the feed line into a can & turn on reds

Thanks but i have no engine or anything in the engine bay ATM, was gonna drain the fuel because when i put the new engine in i want new stuff not stale fuel, expesially when it goes for a tune

Edited 1st post!

Ah thanks, but i did it the hard way, pulled the backseats out and pulled the fuel pump up a little bit, thanks anyways

They dont make it easy to steal fuel these days hey..
Good thing tho, its really expensive :/

Yeah in that sense if I wanted to steal fuel I wouldnt try to steal it from a Rex haha

Screwdriver & hammer

Dont forget the ciggy out the mouth when performing that task

Only fags smoke

What was wrong with this idea?

I now the engines out but the feed and return should still be hanging out in the engine bay somewhere.

Good idea anyway, never thought of that.

You will have to be careful to shut the reds off as soon the fuel supply stops, fuel pumps dont like running dry. Unless of course your planning on replace the pump, if so go for your life.
