OK my car was hit on the passenger side which kinked the neck so bad I can't get a siphon tube down it. I had just filled her up the night before and want to get it out. Is there a way I could use the fuel pump to pump it out?

Thanks,
Ken

you can take the fuel filter off and jumper the eec test connector to run the fuel pump. You can find out how to jumper the connector here http://www.turbotbird.com/techinfo/Fuel_...ostics.htm

Yes. Disconnect the line at the fuel filter. Rig to extend it to a container. Turn the key ON and ground the terminal shown in the diagram in this article to run the pump.

That first sentence here really had me wondering. If we hadn't talked about the fuel pump... well... you can see where this whole line of reasoning is going?
