What do you think?

The hand pump sucks too slow.

What if I take a spare fuel pump, some spare hose and a couple electical leads and this to siphon off my tank for removal...

Is this a stupid idea?

Will I end up on the news?

You could do that.

I made a fuel pump siphon that we still take with us to the track. We used to run out of fuel and "stole" our gas on occasion from the tow vehicle.

Dad got tired of getting a mouthful of gas so I built the fuel pump version. I even put a plug on it that utilizes the trailer plug for power and ground.

Which car?

If it is yours or Erik's, you could hotwire the fuel pump and pump into a can. On the 3.2, you can disconnect the fuel filter and attach a hose. On the 4-cyl, you can pull the hose for the cold start injector and add hose there.

Or you could do like me and pull it out full of gas and proceed to spill gas all over everything.

Gas seems to feel good in open wounds and in eyes.

Good luck.
