Fuel Tank Draining: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Saturn Vue. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Tools Required

SA9127E-7 Fuel Pressure/Flow Adapter. See Special Tools .
SA9804E Fuel Tank Drain Hose. See Special Tools .

For any operation requiring removal of the fuel tank, there should be no more than 11.4 L (3 gal) of fuel remaining. This minimizes the weight of the assembly and eases handling. The fuel level can be determined by reading the fuel level gage. A reading below 1/4 full indicates that no more than 11.4 L (3 gal) are remaining.
