Does anyone know how to get the gas out of a 1990 Lumina APV? Siphoning will not work. Thanks.?

It recently died with a full tank and rather than repair, we've decided to replace the P.O.S.

    If you're just getting rid of it, you can crawl underneath it and punch a hole in the fuel tank and drain it that way. Be careful of making sparks using this method, however. Alternatively, you can just remove the fuel tank with tools and dump the remaining fuel into a container. Either of those methods, though, are a lot of work just to save yourself $40.

    You could disconnect the fuel line before it reaches the engine and drain it from there.
