What should I do when my gas tank is empty?
Remove the tube and refill the tank. Your tank is empty, and you’re ready to move on with your repairs. If you are working on a gasoline or diesel vehicle that had the wrong fuel put in the tank, you may have to flush out the fuel tank and fuel system with the correct fuel. Reuse the gas, or dispose of it properly.
Is there a way to drain the gas tank of a car?
Make sure you not only drain the fuel tank of the wrong fuel, but to flush out the fuel lines and replace the fuel filters. Drain and replace the fuel on any car that’s been sitting for more than six months to a year. Fuel can, and will, go bad when it is just sitting in a tank.

Once the drain plug has been loosened, remove it completely by hand. Allow the fuel to drain until the tank is empty. Warning: Take precaution, as fuel is going to spill out at full force as soon as the drain plug is fully removed.
How can I get all the gas out of my car?
Seek a professional’s help or advice to get all the fuel out. Stick your hose into the gas tank, feeding it until there is only one to two feet left before the pump. This is the hardest part of process, as newer cars sometimes have protective metal bulbs or screens that prevent gas from escaping the car in case of a crash.
