How to drain gasoline from a Lada Largus tank yourself?

Many car owners are wondering how to drain gasoline from a Lada Largus tank for several reasons.

Firstly, such a situation can arise when low-quality fuel is poured into the gas tank, and this, alas, is far from uncommon at our gas stations. If low-quality gasoline is poured, then before operation it is necessary to replace it with new gasoline so that the car runs normally.

Secondly , draining gasoline may be necessary to remove the fuel tank. Removing a full fuel tank from a Lada Largus is not a good idea, as it is not only difficult, but also unsafe. Therefore, before dismantling the gas tank, it is better to completely empty it.

Thirdly , it may be necessary to drain the fuel from the Lada Largus tank if condensation has formed in the tank. This often happens in the cold season, when there is not enough fuel left in the tank.

How to drain gasoline from a tank Method No. 1 If there is no mesh in the tank

Most often, there is no mesh in the tank in Russian-assembled cars. To drain the fuel, you should use a special tube; this is the most primitive, most common method.

What you will need: -hose; - a container into which we will drain gasoline.

Draining process without pump:

First of all, you need to open the gas tank by unscrewing the cap from the filler neck. Next, one end of the hose is inserted into the tank, and the second is lowered into a container into which gasoline will later need to be drained. In order for gasoline to flow, it is necessary to create pressure, and this can be done quite simply with the help of air. You just need to inhale a little air through the tube. After this, you should lower the free end into the bowl and wait until the gasoline flows.

Draining process using a pump:

You can also use a special hand pump to drain fuel for pumping out flammable liquids such as gasoline or diesel fuel. You can buy this pump at an auto store. Please note that not all hand pumps available in stores are suitable for pumping out fuel. Therefore, before purchasing a pump, make sure that it is approved for pumping fuel liquids.

Please note that once you have drained all the fuel, do not yank the hose to remove it from the tank. Firstly, you will not be able to pull out the hose this way, and secondly, you may damage the hose.

The fact is that there is a special small valve in the fuel tank that holds the fuel in the tank and prevents fuel from splashing and getting on the tank cap. That is why, once you insert the hose into the tank, it is so difficult to pull it out. This valve holds the hose. In order to remove the hose from the fuel neck (from the tank), you need to press the valve, unlocking the hose. To do this, you need to push the valve a little inside the fuel neck, and holding it in this position, pull the rubber hose out of the tank without any problems. After pulling out the hose, release the valve and close the tank with the lid.

Attention! If you use a metal screwdriver to hold the valve in the tank, be sure to ground it before you touch the valve. The fact is that if you do not ground a metal screwdriver, then upon contact with the car a microspark can form, which can easily ignite fuel vapors in the tank. It is noteworthy that if you completely drain the fuel from the gas tank, there will be enough fuel vapor in it to cause your car to catch fire

Method No. 2 If a mesh is installed in the tank

The first method is suitable only for those cars that do not have a mesh on the gas tank. If it is available, and almost all modern Japanese cars have it, then you need to do it a little differently. This method is faster and safer than the first, since with the first option there is a high probability of inhaling gasoline vapors, which can lead to poisoning by its vapors.

What we need:

-set of tools; - a canvas that can be laid on the ground; -gloves; - a container into which we will drain gasoline.

For the second option, you just need to open the cap located at the bottom of the gas tank. This is not as easy to do as it seems at first glance, because to do this you will have to get into a rather hard-to-reach place - to the bottom of the fuel tank, and only after that you need to unscrew the cap. After these manipulations, you can start draining the gasoline.

If the car is fuel injected

It is absolutely impossible to completely empty the fuel system of an injection car using a hose. Therefore, in order to drain gasoline from an injection car, you will need to take a different route. First, you should open the gas tank itself (neck), after which the algorithm of actions will be approximately as follows: - find the tube located at the bottom of the engine, supplying fuel to the ramp; - remove the clamp from it and disconnect it from the pipe; -turn the ignition key; - in the relay block, determine the one that is responsible for the fuel pump; -after removing it, you need to bridge it, for which it is convenient to use a standard paper clip; - turn on the car ignition; -drain the leaking fuel into a prepared container, then return the hoses and relays to their places. Important! Using this method of releasing the fuel system, you should carefully monitor the leaking gasoline - as soon as it “bubbles”, the ignition should be turned off immediately, which will avoid damage to the pump.

VAZ 2110/2112/2114/ 16 valves injector

The methods listed below are also suitable for those cars where there is a protective mesh in the fuel neck.

Method 1.

You need to drain gasoline on a cold engine.

Would need:

• connector for connecting to the fuel pump (sold separately) and a wire to it up to 3 meters long.
• a hose up to 3 meters long and with a diameter suitable for the fuel pump fitting.
• clamp;
• two crocodiles for connecting to the battery;
• metal canister;
• rags.

Algorithm of actions:

Fold down the two rear seats and unscrew the fuel pump access flap.

Disconnect the wire connector.

Relieve pressure in the system. To do this, remove the engine protective cover. Find the special fitting (it is shown in the photo below) and release the pressure by pressing the button. To prevent fuel from spilling, place a small container with a volume of up to 0.5 liters.

Find the gasoline supply hose on the pump; as a rule, it is single. Double return hose. Follow the arrow on the pump cover.

By pressing the bracket, remove the fuel supply hose. Connect the prepared hose to the fitting and secure it with a clamp. Place its other end into the prepared container. Connect a pre-prepared connector to the pump by first extending its wire to 3 meters.

Remember where the positive and negative wires are located and use alligator clips to connect them to the battery. Plus to plus, minus to minus. Gasoline will begin to flow into the container. Reverse the steps to return everything to its original position.

Please note, do not rush to remove the hose from the canister. First, disconnect it from the fitting and drain the remaining gasoline.

Method 2.

Similar to the first one, only we disconnect the hose in front near the engine:

• To the right of the engine near the exhaust manifold, find the fuel supply hose. It releases easily thanks to the spring latches. The disconnect location is shown in the diagram below.
• Connect to it a pre-prepared hose at least 3 meters long. Place the other end into a metal container.
• Turn on the ignition. The pump will start working and pump out fuel. It is not recommended to start the car as the pump may fail.

About 100 - 150 ml of gasoline will drain at a time. Next, turn off the ignition and turn it on again.

Method 3.

Suitable for injection vehicles VAZ 2110, 2112, 2114, Lada Granta. We also take a hose and container.

1. Remove the fuel pressure valve cap and use a regular cap to unscrew the nipple.
2. Insert the hose. We lower its second end into the canister.
3. Turn on the ignition. While the pump is pumping, gasoline will drain.
4. We repeat the procedure until we add the required amount of fuel.

Methods 2 and 3 are not suitable for situations where you need to completely drain the gasoline. Frequently turning the ignition on and off will quickly drain the battery, and if you start the car, there is a high probability that the pump will idle and burn out.

On the Lada Granta we also find a fitting for measuring pressure, it is located in the same place as on the VAZ 2110. All operations are performed in the same way.

Alternatively, you can use the following method.

Method 4.

The hose is connected using the methods already described above or directly to the fuel rail.

We find the fuel pump relay and close the contacts on it. On 2112, 2111, 2110 the relay is located below to the right of the driver.

Turn on the ignition. The pump will run continuously

But here it is important to know how much gasoline is in the tank in order to control the draining process and prevent the pump from burning out. The intake of air with gasoline is a signal that the ignition needs to be turned off

In this simple way you can drain gasoline from the injectors of domestic cars.

How to drain gasoline from Largus

From time to time, car owners have to drain gasoline from the tank. Sometimes you need a little fuel for a camper stove or to refuel another car. In other cases, it is necessary to drain all the gasoline to repair the fuel system or remove water or low-quality fuel from the tank. On older cars this operation could be done relatively easily. Now we have to face two problems:

• The long winding channel leading to the tank does not allow the hose to be pushed into it.
• A mesh installed at the filler neck prevents gasoline from draining.

Therefore, it is better to know several methods and apply them depending on the design of the gas tank and the fuel supply system. Below we will tell you how to drain gasoline from cars: VAZ 2109, 2110, 2114, 2115, Grants, Largus, Toyota, Niva, Priora, Patriot, Ford, Chevrolet.

Foreign cars

Lada Largus, Renault Logan, Sandero, Duster

It is no coincidence that we classified Lada Largus as a foreign car, because this car is made on the Renault platform, which means their fuel systems are similar, especially with Renault Logan.

The fuel tanks of these cars are located low, so you won’t be able to drain gasoline using a hose, but you can go the other way.

Remove the back seat so you can get to the fuel pump. Connect the pumping hose to the outlet fitting. Next, close the pump relay. The latter will begin to pump out gasoline.

For example, let's take Renault Duster. First, relieve the pressure in the system. To do this, disconnect the electrical connector from the pump and start the car for a few seconds.

• Prepare a PVC hose with an internal diameter of 10 mm. Since the fuel supply flange has a diameter of 11 mm, this will eliminate air leaks.
• Using a screwdriver, connect one end of the pipe to the fitting, and lower the other into the canister.
• Find the pump relay, marked “K 4” in the diagram and close contacts B5 and B3 on it.
• The pump will begin to drain gasoline, but the ignition key will not turn.

IMPORTANT: Do not allow air to enter the pump.

From a Ford tank

Let's look at the example of Ford Focus 2. It will not be possible to drain gasoline through the filler neck; the valve, mesh, and bends in the fuel line will not allow this to be done.

You can remove the fuel tank, but this is labor-intensive work, so the game is not worth the candle.

The option directly through the fuel pump is attractive, but provided that you have already changed this element of the fuel system before and cut a hole in the bottom under the rear seats, an explanation is here https://autotopik.ru/ford/1353-zamena-benzonasosa-fokus-2. html. If not, then cutting metal just to drain gasoline is impractical.

The simplest option is to disconnect the tube from the fuel rail, it is secured with a latch, connect a hose with a diameter of 8 mm and drain the fuel by turning on the ignition.

But if the tank is full, which is 55 liters, and 4 liters are drained per minute, then the whole process will take a lot of time and the battery can be drained. Therefore, we find the fuel pump relay and close two contacts on them (two lower slots). Don't forget to add a larger container.

Turn on the ignition and drain the gasoline. Be careful, it can leak even without the ignition on, immediately when the relay contacts close.

Toyota

Let's look at the Toyota Camry 40 as an example. To drain gasoline from the car's tank, you can use one of the methods described above. Let's list them:

Connect a hose and an external 12V power source to the pump. Don't forget to release the pressure. The pump itself is located under the rear seat, and to remove its cover you need to warm it up with a hairdryer along the diameter and pry it off with a screwdriver. You need to remove the pipe with the yellow latch

It is important not to confuse the polarity of the connection. The usual way is through the neck using a hose or using a blower. A hose is needed 3 meters long and 8 mm wide, the side that goes down into the tank is cut at an angle of 70 degrees. By closing the pump relay

All methods are described in more detail above.

The same can be done on other Toyota models.

If you have a problem draining gasoline from the tanks of Skoda Octavia, Lanos, Aveo, Matiz and other cars, then you already know the approach to solving the problem. See which options described above are suitable for your car and use them.

Method 1. How to drain gasoline using a hose

The classic method that our grandfathers used. To drain the fuel you need to prepare two things:

• A hose (tube), the length of which depends on the design of the tank.
• Clean container for gasoline.

In the simplest case, the fuel pumping operation goes like this:

1. Lower the hose (tube) into the tank so that it is immersed in gasoline.
2. Cover the free end with your lips and draw in a strong breath.
3. Direct the hose into the prepared container.

All that remains is to wait for all the fuel to flow out.

To drain only part of the fuel, it is enough to lift the hose above the neck so that gasoline stops flowing out.

Gasoline and octane boosters are harmful to health. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid their entry of fuel and its vapors into the body.

To prevent gasoline from getting onto the mucous membranes or into the stomach, special hoses are used to pump fuel. They are equipped with a bulb that must be squeezed before immersing the tube in the fuel and then released. If the design is not equipped with a check valve, vacuum in the line is created in a simple way:

1. squeeze the pear;
2. lower the hose into the gas tank;
3. plug the hose outlet with your finger;
4. release the rubber bulb;
5. remove your finger.

The bulb can be replaced with an improvised piston . To do this, you will need a rope that runs freely inside the tube. It is better that it is made of soft natural material and not nylon. At the end of the rope you need to tie several knots, and then:

1. Thread the rope and pull lightly so that the piston from the knots enters the hose.
2. Insert the hose into the gas tank.
3. Smoothly pull out the rope.
4. Lower the hose (tube) into the prepared fuel container.
5. remove your finger.

The moving “piston” creates a vacuum that causes gasoline to flow from the tank.

However, all tricks with a hose are only relevant for old cars. The gas tank of modern cars (Grants, Largus, Toyota, Niva, Priora, Patriot, Ford, Chevrolet) is located far from the filler neck. In this case, you need to use other methods.

So where is the truth? Is the tank neck really more than 10 liters? Or does the gas pump start to lie shamelessly if you pour gasoline into the tank in a thin stream?

This test was planned a long time ago, and it had to happen that on the appointed day a blizzard and snowfall began! But how could I refuse the test when my teammates at Largus-Club.RF are waiting for the test results? The test had to take place in any weather.

Two 20 liter cans of gasoline are waiting in the trunk, there is still about half of the gas tank... stop, stop, stop... something is wrong! When the half tank indicator lights up, this means that there are approximately 20-25 liters of gasoline left in the tank. We consider “at a minimum” 20 liters of residue in the tank + 40 liters of gasoline in cans - a total of 60 liters! That is NOT ENOUGH. To be honest, there is some misunderstanding in my head as to how this is so: with half a tank, 40 liters of gasoline (especially when you see them in full size) may not be enough to fill it “to capacity”!

Okay, so we’ll stop at a gas station and fill it up a little more, but so that we can also check the accuracy of the fuel level in the tank in liters, available during the test mode of the instrument panel. Let's fill in 20 liters and see how the readings change) This means that for the test it is necessary that there are 26-28 liters of fuel in the tank in order to be able to see deviations in both smaller and larger directions.

In addition to refueling, we also stop at the store, where we buy 2 pairs of work gloves (it’s cold!), and a measuring canister to find out how much fuel will remain unused.

There was a problem with the measuring canister - the store did not have a canister for fuel with displacement marks. I had to take a plastic canister with distilled water. Yes, I know that when using plastic containers for gasoline, a spark may occur due to static electricity. But, alas, there was no choice... but there was a fire extinguisher, which was always nearby when using a canister.

And so everything is ready for the test:

Let's get started. First, let's see the remaining fuel in the tank through the test mode of the instrument panel. 28 liters - just what you need!

We look at the fuel level readings. They range between 49 and 50 liters.

We filled in 20 liters, but the level rose by 21. I doubt that at the gas station they poured a liter of gasoline into the canister more than the meter showed, which means that the instrument panel readings are not entirely accurate. But 1-1.5 liters is quite acceptable.

Let's move on to the second canister. Now, in order to monitor how much will go into the tank, and to make it more convenient to fill the fuel slowly, we will use a “measuring canister”. Which means it’s time for the fire extinguisher to appear:

Method 2. Drain gasoline through the fuel line and the plug at the bottom of the gas tank

If the fuel pump is located not in the tank itself, but near the engine, you can try to drain the fuel through the fuel line. Procedure:

1. Unscrew the clamp and disconnect the hose going from the tank to the fuel pump.
2. Place the hose into the fuel container.

Fuel will leak from the gas tank. The main thing is that the end of the fuel line, as well as the fuel container, is located below the gasoline level.

Some cars have gas tanks with drain plugs. If you are the owner of just such a car model, you need to use an overpass or inspection hole to drain the fuel. This is done simply:

1. Place a container under the drain plug in the gas tank.
2. Unscrew the plug.
3. Drain the fuel (all or part of it).
4. Tighten the plug.

However, plugs at the bottom of the tank are not very common. In this case, the fuel pump will help drain the gasoline. The method is suitable for old modern cars.

In what cases is it necessary to drain diesel fuel?

Most often, this need arises among owners of heavy trucks, since the tank is large in volume. If there is something wrong with the fuel, it will not be used quickly and will affect the operation of the engine. Typically, fuel is drained in the following situations:

• Helping another driver is often required if there are no gas stations nearby, and the person cannot start the engine or warm up the interior in winter.
• Carrying out repairs - it is planned to replace the tank, fuel pump or filter;
• The tank is full - you need to drain the excess.
• Tank flushing is required - when diesel fuel is contaminated or diluted, it can cause fuel system failure.
• The battery is dead - you need to refuel the generator to charge it.

Often the need to pump out diesel fuel occurs far from the city, when you need to drive several hours to the nearest gas station. A complete drain is usually required only during repairs, or when you need to get rid of low-quality diesel fuel. High-quality fuel should be free of foreign particles and water. In order not to have to worry about draining diesel fuel once again, it is better to refuel only at network gas stations with a good reputation.

It is recommended to use only high-quality, proven diesel fuel

Diesel fuel must comply with modern environmental standards. To protect yourself, you can buy branded fuel from oil companies. Even fuel that meets the Euro 5 standard may turn out to be of poor quality if its expiration date has passed. This is due to the fact that it contains improving additives that lose their properties over the years.

Despite the high quality of modern diesel fuel, it is important for every motorist to be able to drain low-quality liquid

Method 3. How to drain gasoline using a fuel pump

The only way to drain fuel from the tanks of most fuel-injected cars is to use the fuel pump. Open the hood and disconnect the fuel hose from the ramp pipe and direct it into a prepared fuel container.

If you then turn on the ignition, the electric pump will start for a few seconds and pump 200-300 grams of gasoline. To pump out more fuel, you need to use one of two options:

• Periodically turn the ignition on/off so that the pump pumps gasoline in small portions.
• Remove the electric pump turn-on relay and close the pump power contacts. In this case, the pump will pump gasoline until the ignition is turned off.

If you short-circuit the relay power supply circuit instead of the contacts going to the fuel pump, the fuse will blow and you will not be able to start the car . Therefore, first carefully study the wiring diagram and relay pinout.

After pumping out the fuel, do not forget to put the relay with the hose in place and tighten the clamp on the latter.

The described method is not suitable for draining all the fuel from the tank. If the gasoline runs out, the fuel line will become airy and the pump may fail.

You can also drain gasoline from the tank using a mechanical fuel pump. The device has a lever for manual pumping. However, the productivity of this method is extremely low. It should be used when you need to collect 100-200 grams of gasoline.

Car : Lada Largus. Asks : Anton Ivanov. Question : It is necessary to drain gasoline from the Lada Largus tank; I refueled with badyagi at the gas station on the left!

Hello, please tell me how to drain gasoline from the tank of a Lada Largus? I filled up with the wrong kind of gasoline at a gas station, fuel consumption increased, and the car is not running stable. During the diagnostics, they said that they had filled me with “donkey urine”, they recommended draining all the gasoline, pouring a cleaner into the tank, then filling it with 95-grade gasoline, and letting the engine shit out on the highway.

I'm new to this business. I used to have a simple car, I stuck the hose in and everything started flowing. But here it doesn’t work out that way. Perhaps there is some secret on how to do this or I’m doing it wrong.

I even thought about putting the car on an elevated platform, taking a long hose and down, I don’t know what would flow down. If only there was an inspection hole, I would drain it from the pan, but I don’t have one. Even if it were not for the fact that everything would be so simple. In general, please tell me how to do this, taking into account what I have already said. I will be grateful if I receive useful information.

Maybe there is some kind of valve at the entrance to the tank, since it doesn’t work through the neck. I would remove the seat (if Largus has access to the fuel pump under the rear seat), take out the fuel system and pump out the fuel directly. Something like this.

Yes, Zhenya, you described a good method) There really is a valve there. Perhaps just to protect against unauthorized drains by the owner)

From time to time, as a matter of urgency, you need to drain gasoline from your car's gas tank. The prerequisites for such a decision vary. For example, the fuel was filled with bad fuel, a small amount of it is needed to complete the work, or some work needs to be done on the side of the fuel tank. Next, we will tell you how to drain gasoline from the Priora

Whatever the reason, it is quickly impossible to drain gasoline the old fashioned way, using a hose. What remains for our client to do is that the tank neck is made in a special way and, due to its curved shape, does not allow gasoline to be pumped out using third-party objects. Naturally, you can drain gasoline from the Priora’s tank by inserting a very narrow hose there and turning it at the same time, but the process takes forever. Therefore, it is worth talking about some more effective methods.

There are several methods available where you can choose according to your preference. The options are as follows: 1. Using a hose. 4. After removing the fuel pump. 3. Using the fuel pressure control fitting.

The hose method involves immersing one book of its end into the gas tank to the desired depth. The 2nd end is placed in a container to collect gasoline. As if everything is very simple. However, as mentioned earlier, there is a catch in the form of a special neck. To get around it, you need a very narrow hose with a diameter of less than 6 mm for this purpose. However, this method will take a lot of time. To speed up the process, it is recommended to place the machine higher and the drain container lower. A pit or a lift is perfect. The draining time depends on the amount of gasoline in the tank and the hose itself.

-=How to drain gasoline from a Lada Granta.=-

The most time-consuming and labor-intensive method. It lies in the fact that you can gain access specifically to the gas tank itself, bypassing the neck. For this purpose you need:

• In the car interior, discard or dismantle the rear seat.
• Find and unscrew the protective cap of the fuel pump.
• Remove the hoses from the pump connections.
• Remove the protective ring.
• Unscrew the fuel pump mount.
• When removing the device, slowly twist it or tilt it from side to side (to avoid destroying the float).

After this, there will be open access to the gasoline in the tank. You can pump it out using the same hose, only now with a larger diameter.

Now to the question, is it possible to drain gasoline from the Priora very simply? The answer is natural! For this purpose, you need an iron cap for unscrewing the spool, a hose, and a container for gasoline. The procedure is like this:

1. Open the car hood.
2. Find the fuel pressure control fitting. Unscrew the plastic protective cap by hand.
3. Take the iron cap with a special groove in your hand and begin to unscrew the valve spool. Be extremely careful not to drop the spool.

Lada Kalina, Priora

The fuel tank of the Lada Kalina is made of plastic; gasoline is not drained from below. Also, the filler hole itself is located in the center of the tank, and not on the side.

Therefore, the pipe from the filler neck to this hole is long and has two bends.

The advantage is that there is no protective mesh in the filler pipe. Therefore, all is not lost.

Prepare a canister and a hose at least 2.5 - 3 meters long with a diameter of 1-1.5 cm. So that it fits freely into the neck.

Run the hose inside. At first it will go freely and even the first bend will not cause any special difficulties. Then it will rest against the second bend and here you need to start rotating it counterclockwise, as if you were cleaning a sewer.

Blow into the hose and make sure it goes down into the tank. Drain the gasoline using a blower or by creating a vacuum with your mouth (methods described above).

How to drain gasoline from a tank? And including how to drain gasoline from a Lada Granta car

You can never predict what and at what moment we will simply need to do. Car owners most often encounter the problem of an empty tank in the most inopportune places and moments. But there are seemingly paradoxical situations when the owner of a car is faced with the question of how to drain gasoline from the tank of a foreign car or a domestic car. Although the question itself may seem somewhat ridiculous, the reasons for its occurrence can be quite serious situations: a sudden emergency on the road or an accident that has already happened with your participation, preventive maintenance, or the need to rescue a “petrol-free” driver stuck on the highway. In order to avoid undesirable (and sometimes disastrous) consequences, it is necessary to clearly understand how to act in the current situation. Let's consider three options for solving this issue: pump out the fuel through the filler hole using a tube or hose (this method is more applicable for domestic cars, since the pipeline of foreign cars contains various mesh filters that will prevent the hose from getting into the tank); drain gasoline using a fuel pump; Drain the fuel through the drain plug located at the bottom of the tank. Option #1.

Gas tank capacity in Largus

The remaining technical characteristics are similar to the Largus “station wagon”.

When loading a vehicle to its full weight, the weight of the trailer should not lead to excess weight of the road train.** The curb weight indicated in this table corresponds to the weight of an empty vehicle.*** Technical characteristics are measured using special methods, serve for comparison of different vehicles and operating standards they are not!

Hi all. The news is not the most pleasant - they struck

They drained my tank from the bottom and drained the gas... There are no more words, only emotions left. Because of the 20 liters, they didn’t hesitate to pick it with a knife. But nothing can be done, there are enough morons in the country, God be their judge.

I address first of all to my fellow countrymen:

1) Where can I patch a 1cm cut? I contacted the official dealer, they offered to order a new tank, but its price was exorbitant (is it gold or something?)

How to quickly drain gasoline from a Lada Largus

There are a great many situations in which it becomes necessary to remove remaining fuel from the tank of your car. Often this procedure is carried out when the fuel in the tank is of too low quality - no other method will help to avoid problems. Sometimes the tank is filled not with gasoline, but with the same diesel engine. Fortunately, such an oversight at a gas station is not a very common occurrence, because only if the wrong fuel does not reach the Lada engine can trouble be avoided. For this reason, action must be taken as an emergency. When the error is not noticed immediately and the car drives even for a short time on a dubious cocktail, then its owner will also need to flush the entire system and especially thoroughly the fuel pump. It is possible that the filters will also have to be changed.

People driving older Lada models do not encounter any particular difficulties. In such cars, it is very easy to pump out fuel - the plug is opened, a hose is inserted inside, and then the fuel is removed using the good old principle of communicating vessels. Largus is a new car, and therefore the simple option described above cannot be implemented. We will tell you in more detail later how to drain gasoline from it differently.

Removing the gasoline pump

At first it may seem that this method is more complicated than the previous technology, but in practice it is possible to verify that this is not the case. In some ways, the removal option is even simpler, which is why many drivers choose it. So, the instructions look like this:

• The rear seat cushions recline.
• The rug is raised. The mat hides the 4 screws that secure the cover. All screws need to be unscrewed, they are tightened without much effort, so a regular Phillips-head screwdriver will do.

The block with a set of electrical wires coming directly from the pump is disconnected.

Removing the fuel hoses that secure the pump in place.

A special plastic ring that presses the pump is unscrewed. This is done very simply, the ring simply rotates counterclockwise. In some cases, when the initial clamping force is too high, a flat-head screwdriver and a hammer may be needed; these tools can be used to pry up and slightly loosen the ring.

Removing the gasoline pump. When removing, it is recommended to tilt it slightly to the side, which will eliminate the possibility of damaging the lever indicating the fuel level, as well as turning the float sensor that determines the current level.

Assembly is carried out in reverse order. If you periodically smell the smell of gasoline while operating your vehicle, you can also change the O-ring.

So, the process of draining gasoline is not particularly difficult, but unnecessary intervention in the car’s systems is, of course, not recommended. The most reliable option to save yourself from unnecessary work is a careful approach to choosing gas stations.

Specifics of Largus

The Lada model in question belongs to a relatively new generation of vehicles. What prevents you from draining gasoline in your car is primarily the specific structure of the neck of the fuel tank. It is too long and also curved. On top of that, there is a mesh installed inside, so that not a single, even very thin tube (for example, from an IV) will penetrate inside, no matter what they say on specialized forums. This means that the time-tested method of draining gasoline is completely inapplicable in this case.

In the situation with Largus, there are three options with approximately the same efficiency - and in two of them, part of the fuel will in any case remain at the bottom, no matter how hard you try. Thus, it will be possible to complete the task considered in this article by:

• dismantling the entire tank;
• using a standard fuel pump;
• through the hole in which the above-mentioned unit is attached.

The return option in Largus also does not work - it is suitable for cars of earlier releases.

Method number 1 - if there is no mesh in the tank

Most often, there is no mesh in the tank in Russian-assembled cars, for example: Lada, Gazelle, Volga, etc. To drain the fuel, you should use a special tube; this is the most primitive, most common, old-fashioned method.

What we need:

Draining process:

First of all, you need to open the gas tank by unscrewing the cap from the filler neck. Next, one end of the hose is inserted into the tank, and the second is lowered into a container into which gasoline will later need to be drained. In order for gasoline to flow, it is necessary to create pressure, and this can be done quite simply with the help of air. You just need to inhale a little air through the tube. After this, you should lower the free end into the bowl and wait until the gasoline flows.

Removing the tank

If you dismantle the tank, you can completely empty all remaining gasoline from it without any problems. The mentioned procedure is carried out not only when it is necessary to remove incorrect fuel, but also to eliminate condensation. The latter settles in the container little by little. It accumulates in it, collecting at the bottom. If there is too much of it, problems will arise with the engine.

The gas tank on the above-mentioned Lada model is removed quite simply, but all work takes a lot of time - 2-4 hours, depending on the car owner’s experience and technical equipment.

You will definitely need a ramp, an inspection hole or a reliable lift. If the tank is full, then it is advisable to use up the fuel before dismantling it. Otherwise, you will have to remove the filler hose and pump out gasoline through the opened hole. As a result, you will be left with 4-6 liters of fuel and some amount of condensate.

Prepare the keys from the tools:

• end - by 13 millimeters and 10;
• TORХ T20 (bits with 6-point asterisk);
• Screwdriver Set;
• pliers.

The procedure for removing the tank is as follows:

• reduce the pressure in the fuel line;
• disconnect the negative cable from the battery;
• unplug the fuel pump terminal;
• remove the filler pipe hatch and unscrew the screws holding it;
• twist the grounding nut and disconnect the protective element itself (location – rear right wheel arch);
• remove the right parking brake from the holders attached to the gas tank, canister tube and fuel hose;
• dismantle the fuel line extending to the ramp from the gasoline supply pipe, and do the same with the hose going to the adsorber;
• remove the suspension cushions from the front and rear brackets of the additional and main mufflers;
• lower the entire exhaust gas exhaust system and secure it in this position with wire;
• remove the heat shield of the additional muffler;
• support the tank (for example, with a board);
• twist the nuts securing the tank to the right and left brackets, and then those holding it to the front and rear;
• Carefully lower the tank to the ground.

It is recommended to thoroughly wash the fuel tank using pure gasoline or a special composition. It is also permissible to use a mixture of fuel and pure ethyl alcohol (proportion – 1 to 1). Upon completion of the sanitation, the tank is left to dry completely.

The empty container is returned to its place, performing all the above steps in reverse order. It is important to ensure that the hose fittings are connected correctly - the clamps must snap into place (evidence of this is a characteristic sound).

Let us remind you once again that only the above method will allow you to completely remove gasoline from the tank.

Technical description and characteristics of the car

In April 2012, AVTOVAZ began production of a new Russian-made station wagon, Lada Largus (Lada Lapryc), which is a 2006 Dacia Logan MCV adapted for the Russian market, produced in Romania.

The car was created on the B0 platform, which served as the basis for the Logan and Sandero cars. In addition to station wagons, the plant also produces vans.

Test tests have shown that the car is well prepared for Russian operating conditions. The station wagon is available in five- and seven-seat versions. Moreover, the third row of seats can comfortably accommodate adult passengers. Thanks to folding seats, the car interior can be easily transformed to suit any needs - from a tourist trip to the transportation of large cargo. The third row of seats can be removed from the cabin, this allows you to significantly increase the volume of the luggage compartment. In the seven-seater version it is modest - only 135 liters. But the five-seater version already has 560 liters of volume. The front suspension is independent, MacPherson type with wishbones and anti-roll bar. The rear suspension is dependent with a U-shaped beam and trailing arms connecting the beam to the body.

The large wheelbase provides the car with good handling and stability on the road. The front brakes are ventilated discs, the rear brakes are drums. In expensive versions, the car is equipped with an anti-lock braking system (ABS).

The cars are equipped with a four-cylinder 8-valve petrol engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 62 kW (84 hp), or a 16-valve engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 77 kW (105 hp). Both engines meet Euro 4 emission standards. All cars are equipped with a five-speed manual transmission.

The car is available in three trim levels: “Norma”, “Standard” and “Lux”.

Options include a height-adjustable steering column, air conditioning, power steering (power steering), front and rear power windows, electrically adjustable and heated outside rear-view mirrors, and a CD/MP3 radio.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF THE LADA Largus Cross CAR

The equipment of LADA Largus Cross cars is distinguished by increased ground clearance (by 25 mm), original wheels with a diameter of 16 inches, tires of increased size (205/55R16), original seat upholstery, decorative inserts for door trim and instrument panels, protective linings for the body, front and rear bumpers, black decorative films on the door frames, door sills with Largus Cross embossing, Largus Cross nameplate on the right tailgate.

Draining gasoline through the pump hatch

The option described in this subsection will not allow you to completely drain all the gasoline in the tank. However, it is much safer than the above, although the procedure itself takes noticeably longer.

In this case, the fuel is removed while located directly in the cabin. It is best to do this in the fresh air and with the doors open. Take all precautions:

• do not smoke;
• turn off the power;
• do not wear clothes made of synthetic fiber;
• Make sure you have a fire extinguisher at the ready.

During operation, quite a lot of gasoline vapor is generated, which in the limited space of the cabin can simply ignite. Be sure to ask someone to cover you just in case.

The procedure is as follows:

• remove the back seat from the interior;
• open the hatch located underneath;
• remove the power terminal from the fuel pump;
• after unscrewing the bolts, carefully pull out the assembly (be very careful with the float - it breaks easily);
• remove the pump;
• pump out the fuel through the opened hole using a rubber bulb;
• Upon completion, return the unit, hatch and seats to their place and thoroughly ventilate the interior.

Part replacement features

Replacing this part is not so difficult if you know where the fuel filter is located on the Largus and how to carry out the repair correctly. It is important to note that even an amateur motorist can perform the replacement procedure, since the whole process is very simple. Replacing the filter does not require any serious preparation, except for the following measures:

The procedure itself takes no more than 30 minutes, of course, if you do not want to completely disassemble the fuel pump system and try old-fashioned methods to clean the fuel filter. Replacing the part with a homemade filter is considered a bad idea. Also, this should not be done because incorrectly cleaning or assembling the fuel pump will cause serious damage to the entire Lada Largus fuel system. Is it worth it? Most likely no.

A few nuances

On forums, some car owners say that they drain gasoline using a regular household pump of the “Springhead” type. This is not recommended, because any electrical appliance can spark, which means there is a risk of fuel ignition.

Other hobbyists say that to simply remove gasoline, you just need to use up its entire volume, as evidenced by turning off the power plant. This method is extremely dangerous. The thing is that in this case there is a high risk of damage to the pump. This unit, which, as they say, works dry, can burn out, and you will have to pay more than a thousand rubles for a new one.

Solving a problem using a handset

A well-known and proven method is removal using a tube.
This is an old “grandfather’s” method that is still relevant among car enthusiasts today. In this case, draining occurs through a tube into a volumetric container. Today, special bulb pumps are widely used to drain gasoline. With their help, you can quickly and safely drain the required amount of fuel. In appearance it resembles a device for measuring blood pressure. If you buy it in time, you can easily drain gasoline from any car, be it a Lada Priora or a Skoda Octavia.

How to Drain Gasoline From Largus

From time to time you urgently need to fill up gasoline from your car's gas tank. The prerequisites for such a decision are different. For example, bad fuel has been filled, you need to do a small amount of work, or some work needs to be done on the side of the fuel tank. Next we will explain how to drain gas from a Priora

Whatever the reason, it is impossible to quickly drain the gas using an old-fashioned hose. What remains for our client is that the tank neck is made in a special way and, due to its curved shape, does not allow gasoline to be pumped using foreign objects. Naturally, you can drain the gas from the Priora tank by inserting a very narrow hose and unscrewing it at the same time, but the process takes forever. So it's worth talking about more effective methods.

There are several methods that you can choose according to your preference. Options: 1. Using a hose. 4. After removing the fuel pump. 3. Using a fuel pressure control nipple.

The hose method involves immersing one book of its end into the gas tank to the desired depth. The other end is placed in a tank to collect gasoline. It's all very simple. However, as mentioned earlier, there is a snout in the shape of a special neck. To get around you you will need a very narrow hose less than 6mm in diameter. Moreover, this time method will take a long time. To speed up the process, it is recommended to install the machine on top and the drain tank. below. Ideal pit or lift. The draining time depends on the amount of gas in the tank and the hose itself.

The longest time method. This is to gain access specifically to the gas tank by bypassing the neck. You need:

• In the interior of the car, fold back or remove the rear seat.
• Locate and unscrew the fuel pump cap.
• Remove the hoses from the pump nozzles.
• Remove the protective ring.
• Unscrew the fuel pump mount.
• When removing the device, slowly turn it or tilt it from side to side (so as not to destroy the float).

After this, access to the gasoline in the tank will be open. You can pump it out with the same hose, only now of a larger diameter.

Now the question of whether it is possible to fill gas according to priorities is very simple. The answer is natural! To do this, you will need an iron cap to unscrew the coil, hose, and gasoline tank. The procedure looks like this:

1. Open the hood of the car.
2. Locate the fuel pressure control valve. Unscrew the plastic protective cap by hand.
3. Grasp the iron cover with the special groove and begin to unscrew the auxiliary coil. Be very careful not to miss the spool.
4. When unscrewing, pull firmly on one end of the hose you have prepared for the fitting. Attach lightly to the other side of the hose; in other words, replace the fuel tank.
5. Move to the car. Turn the ignition key (no need to start the car) until the gasoline pump begins to deliver fuel.
6. The tank will begin to fill with gasoline. The filling process is very small, during which about 200 grams of gas are mixed. Turn the ignition on a couple of times to fill the tanks.
7. After collecting the required amount of fuel, we collect our clients in the reverse order.

Volume of Lada Largus Tank Lada Largus

It should be noted that the drying method described above is not suitable for all engines with Lada Priora. If the nozzle has a mechanism other than a coil, the high pressure hose (to the rail) should be removed and it will be connected at the end of the fuel connection even faster. Now you know how to combine gas with Priora in three different ways.

Expansion of signaling capabilities

Car enthusiasts who are familiar with the alarm connection diagram on a classic know that the gas tank hatch is not equipped with any sensor for opening. Therefore, it will be necessary to expand the capabilities of the alarm system, for which you will need to contact either a car service center or use your own hands.

If you have certain installation skills, then it will not be difficult to pick up a small limit switch and install it behind the gas tank hatch cover. Alternatively, insert the limit switch into the standard place of the rubber stop, into which the lid rests when closing. The limit switch will have to be connected parallel to the same limit switch on the luggage compartment lid.

That's not all. One more simple modification of the alarm system will also be required, which will be based on the fact that most alarm systems with feedback do not have a “no sound signal” mode, that is, in any emergency situation:

• The key fob emits a signal,
• The engine compartment siren turns on,
• The dimensions begin to flash.

As a result, the gasoline thief hides until the next time, and it’s difficult to catch him with a hose in his hands, but you really want to. The thief usually retreats after the alarm is triggered, and then returns again.

To disorient the gasoline thief, you will need to disconnect the wire at the siren terminal, and also remove the power fuses for the light alarm. The location of such fuses depends on the design of the specific alarm model, the method of its installation and connection to the vehicle’s on-board network.

After this modification, only the key fob will sound an alarm, and there will be no signals on the car. Since there will be no signals, this will disorient the inexperienced thief and he will continue the dirty business of draining gasoline, which takes enough time for the owner to be near his car.
