Most vehicles these days make it impossible to run a syphon hose down the filler neck so, when I have to drain a fuel tank (for whatever reason) I disconnect the filler tube from the tank and go directly into the tank with the syphon hose.
is not so much a syphon block, but a fliter built into the filler hose
I Think you have other problems. Change the fuel filter and if that doesn't do it take it to a garage. You purchase a gasoline can and a funnel. Fill the gasoline can with fuel from your local gasoline station. Pour it into your vehicles tank using the funnel. Cycle the ignition key on and off several times pausing breifly for a few seconds when in the on position, this will prime the system, then start it up.
You can put about a pint in a full tank of gas.
The tank is not venting properly.
The gas tank on the 2008 Smart Fortwo holds 8.7 gal..
You can not. There is an anti-siphon valve in the filler neck.You can not. There is an anti-siphon valve in the filler neck.
You can not siphon from that tank. You have to remove the tank and pump to drain.
You remove the filler hose off of the side of the tank, and siphon out of there.
Only the fuel in the gas line will escape. It will not siphon out.
Siphon it out of the tank. Feed a hose into the gas take and create a vacuum to remove the gas. Have tank or bucket ready.
You can hot wire the fuel pump, or remove the tank and siphon it out of the pump mounting hole.You can hot wire the fuel pump, or remove the tank and siphon it out of the pump mounting hole.
It Does Not Have A Gas Tank Drain Plug. You Will Have To Siphon The Gas Out. Or Drop The Tank With It In It. GOOD LUCK
so the gas pump could fit in there.
Yes
Not possible without dropping gas tank and draining it that way.
In order to siphon the fuel out of the tank you need to remove the fill hose from the tank. The hose is difficult to get to but it can be done. Once the fill hose is removed you can then slip your siphon hose into the tank. Try not to allow any dirt to get into the tank during the process.
Unfortunately you have to remove the tank, siphon as much as you can and then remove the tank.
