My fuel pump is dying quickly, it lets all the gas in the lines drain back when it's just sitting for a few hours. Bad check valve I'd guess. New pump will be here Tuesday from SCP, but the problem is that the tank has about 15 gallons of gas in it. Ford shop manual says to shove a small hose down the filler pipe and syphon it out as the only way of draining it. Apparently it takes some kind of magic to get the hose down the crooked filler pipe because I'm not being successful at it. What's the trick to draining the tank so it can be removed and the pump replaced? A discouraging job so far.
