how to remove fuel from fuel rail? specifically on an m50 BMW.


I have literally blown up a car doing this(also an m50 bmw...) see pic I spilled gas in the engine bay and when I turned it on a week later pic related happened. the replacement I bought also has an m50 engine, and I have to replace the head on it. how much fuel can I spill in the alternater area before this one blows up too? obviously I'm going to spray it out with water first - which I didn't learn last time. but I'm still scared to do it. should I buy a pump? can I safely vacuum gasoline with a shop vac? So make the shop vac a straw then hook it up to the gas line (I've done this with my brake line but obvi never gasoline. friend thinks really bad idea. he helped me with pic related)
>>
How much gas exactly did you spill that it hadn't evaporated a week later?
>>
jesus. take it to a shop desu.

Pull something down-stream somewhere. Don't spray your alternator or anything that gets hot with fuel. If you do, clean that shit up. Throw rags and shit down underneath it before you pull it.

Pull injectors with rail so it doesn't spray everywhere until your ready, then pull one injector and let the fuel flow into a container.

Remove the fuel hose off the end of the rail and have a container ready.

don't work on cars.

I removed the throttle body already and it won't even try to turn over

>>17604190
not that much I thought. I also didn't have an exhaust on it past the headers...
>>
Use a straw.

Putting the throttle body on an m50 is fucking easy and doing it the way anons have described means you won't blow another car up.
Don't be lazy anon

>>17604180
isnt this the exact purpose of a vacuum pump
>>
Take injectors out, filter off, air line at filter connector, blow out.

I did this and I haven't bought gas in years

There's a pressure relief valve on the front of the rail, looks like a tire valve stem. On the back of the rail there are two hoses, both held on with hose clamps.
