Hi after needing to replace fuel lines I've found they come down passenger side and up over the corner of the fuel tank and across the rear axel. So to replace I thinking I need to drop the tank. Does anyone know how to do it and what to watch out for like connect plastic clips that need removing first so they dont snap. How to drain fuel out of tank. It's a range rover vogue 2005 3.0 l322.
 
I'm assuming there is no fuel drain so hopefully it's low to start with! A suitable gauge pipe can be used to siphon with, never done it on a modern car but understand it's possible. You'll need the engine running so the pump is equalising both sides of the tank
 
What would happen if you were not around to do it.
She did once drag my daughter out to do it for her. And then there's my son who would give her hell but do it begrudgingly.

She would phone RAC "cars broke just cut out wont start" lol
She did once ring me saying there's a light on the dash she's never seen before that looks like a petrol pump :D
