passenger side fuel rail in the front will be a valve with a black cap (mine was black) on it... looke kinda like a valve stem cap. Take that off, stick a rag around it and push the pin in the middle down and the gas will come out... this might take a few minutes depending on the last time you had your car running

disconnect the harness from the fuelpump cutoff switch in the trunk....and then start the car (if it even starts mine never does) and it will use up all the gas left and u should be good...

Yep, thats the quick and easy way... then just for kicks, start the car agian, and make sure it quits, and wont start agian, prime to pump and couple times too... Then you can go to the fuel rail and press the valve in ( with a rag on top)

Then your good to go.
