Draining Fuel Tank: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Jeep Patriot and 2012 Jeep Compass. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Two different procedures may be used to drain fuel tank: using a diagnostic scan tool to activate the fuel pump relay and drain the fuel tank, or remove the fuel pump. Due to a one-way check valve installed into the fuel fill opening fitting at the tank, the tank cannot be drained conventionally at the fill cap.
