Draining the fuel tank: Alternative

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

There are two different methods for draining the fuel tank depending on whether the fuel pump works.

HINT: If the tank is more than half full, it can take a long time to drain. Alternative 2 could then be preferable even if the fuel pump works.

Alternative 1: if the fuel pump works, see Draining the fuel tank via the fuel rail
Alternative 2: if the fuel pump does not works, see Draining a lowered fuel tank (AWD only)
