Won't it only run for a moment since the engine is not running? The computer should turn off the flow without a running engine shouldn't it? At least on my Jag it was that way.

THIS IS NOT A METAPHOR!!! I think you can turn to ignition to position 2 as many times as you want. Not sure how much would pump out each time you toggle the key though.

You could jump the fuel pump relay contacts and have constant run.

So, there's no way to push a siphon hose down there? I have not tried yet, but my Jag was fine with it, and they are very close cousins.

Looks like Mike is right. I just tried it, I can get about 3 feet of hose in there before it jams up on something. Couldn't siphon a drop.
