How do you remove fuel from the car's tank?

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In order to remove the fuel from the car's tank, it will be necessary to have a flexible tube and a compressor: you will need to make an incision near one of the two ends of the tube in order to insert the end of the compressor inside it. At this point, the free end of the tube must be inserted into the tank, while the other end must point towards the container that will contain the fuel. By activating the compressor, a pressure difference will be created that will push the fuel from the tank to the other container. When the outflow is complete, the tube can be removed.
