Remove fuel filter inlet pipe/hose from fuel filter find/buy a piece of hose to fit into fuel filter feed pipe from tank and use your pump to drain tank through filter inlet pipe/hose into containers. Some internal fuel tank pumps have a check valve inside. If your extra pump will not suck the fuel out you will have to drain by cycling the key switch on/off. May take all day but will drain the tank enough to let you drop it out
