Subject: RE:Headers and Fuel lines by Slalom4me on 2008/1/27 22:08:55 Draining the tank isn't so bad with a siphon through the fuel neck feeding into jerry cans. But if you don't find the earlier three suggestions palatable, then a fourth may be to open the lines where they meet the fuel rail. Then with the gas cap removed, apply gentle air pressure to the lines to encourage any fuel to flow to the tank. Once the lines are clear, my vote is that it will not be possible for fuel to siphon back into the lines without assistance from the pump to lift fuel up the initial length of in-tank line. Use suitable precautions when fuel leaks may occur - have known good fire extinguishers on hand and have a competent buddy standing watch. Be sure there is a clear path outside in case it becomes necessary to remove the vehicle from the building. Good luck. . |
