Find someone with test book or IID or faultmate MSV multi vehicle that can activate the intank pump and primary pump. then all you need to do is take the output pipe off the fuel filter and run a pipe into a suitable container.

you should be able to drain it from the secondary fuel pump location..this thread is for the replacement of said pump but it will show you how..

If you haven't got a member locally who can help you can keep cycling the ignition key and that will pump for about 20seconds at a time to drain the tank. Means you don't have to climb under the car and less fuel spilt as well |

Only other way is to get into the tank via the access holes |
