I'm trying to drain the fuel from a 1994 Corsica (3100)
I've tried siphoning from the tank but can't get the hose in far enough.
So I am trying to get most of fuel out by removing schader valve from the fuel rail
and running the fuel pump. Does the ALDL connector on the Corsica have
access to the fuel pump relay? If not, does anyone know where the fuel pump
relay is?

By the way I'm changing a leaky fuel tank.

If you are going to replace the fuel tank, why not just jack the car up at one end and drill a hole in the tank?

Why?

Because I don't want to burn to death.

Just drop it with the fuel in it. Use a floorjack if you are doing it on ramps/jackstands.

Are you sure there is really fuel in the tank? Use a match and look down the fill neck to see how much gas is actually in there.

just take a pick and a hammer and poke a hole in it or as stated before just drop it down with the gas in it its not that heavy.
