You can also disconnect the line at the rail and run the fuel pump manually
to drain the tank. Just make sure you have a good catch can and secure the
hose because the pump puts out a lot of pressure and volume.
That or a hose to siphon it out. I found the pump to be faster.
Do not underestimate the weight of fuel and the difficulty of managing
a sloshing tank. Anything above E is going to be a pain in the ass.
By the time I get to do my tank I'll have probably done five others.
(as long as they bring beer it's all ok.)
