If i slip some hose pipe down, and sythen (spelling) it out, will it work? I know some tanks have an anti-sythen device, does the sport?

take the feed pipe off the engine and put a bit of hose from that to whatever your putting the petrol then just turn the engine over

The timing belt slipped, thats why it's off the road, would it be okay to turn? :/ seems dodgy

Hence i was just going to suck the fuel out so to speak..

does it an anti-synthen device? thats my main problem here!

yeah dont turn it over, should have said that the belt had slipped lol

should still be able to turn it 2 clicks as if priming the engine but you would have to turn it 2 clicks and turn it off then turn it 2 clicks then turn it off so might take a while depending on how much fuel you have

I take the fuel line off the fuel rail put it into a fuel can.
Then at the back seat using your battery stick the + and - to the pump plug and away you go.

I think there is an anti-SYPHON device in the filler neck. Take the pump out of the tank and put a transparent pipe in there, and suck (the pipe, of course!) You can see when the petrol gets near the end, so you wont drink any! Its dangerous using electric that may spark near petrol vapour.

As long as the seal on the pump is sound they'll be no vapours in the cab. The fuel is coming out at the engine.
