I have done other cars from the line where the fuel filter is. Not sure if that would work on these trucks or not.

Drive the heck out of it around a VERY CLEAN block until the tank reads 1/4...

but it only stays on for a sec or two, but i guess he could bypass the pump switch

If you use the scrader on the fuel rail and just jump the fuel pump relay or jump the pump.

do it with a hose off the fuel rail, like in taken a pressure readin, & let her idle????

remove shrader valve on rail and attach a clear hose. You can buy at homedepot or black low psi fuel hose at autoparts. Then just jump the fuel pump relay.

This is the way i've done at work when the fuel evacutator is in use..

actually they have one for sale at harbor freight for like 80 bucks. You crank the handle and suck it out.

yea thats what im afraid of i know its got bout 20 miles on the full tank so it might be a project got 3 days to get it done though

you remove the relay for the fuel pump control and use a 14-16 guage wire and connect terminal 30 to 87
