Dumping fuel

Okay's so I'm going to be doing the 2nd gen internal fuel pump installation, which means that I need to cut up my fuel tank. Where can I dump the fuel so I don't explode? Would Kragen take it? And would they just drain it from my tank or do I give them a container with the fuel in it?

if you have a fine metal screen and a decent funnel you can catch it in a bucket by unhooking the hose leading fromt he fuel pump to the tank and then use the funnel to pour it in a gas can and use it later. use a screen in the funnel to attempt to catch particulants on the way to the cas can.

A fine screen? You might want to rethink that that since our filters are paper. If the fuel is good, use a coffee filter set inside of automotive paint filters. If the fuel is bad, find a recycling center. Filtering is easier to do once the fuel is out of the tank.
