Look under the mat in your trunk, there should be a cover there that is over the fuel sending unit, Remove the unit, and siphon the fuel. You do not want to remove the tank on an Aurora, they are one of the hardest to get at.

find your fuel line and disconnect it somewhere suitable. you need to connect a length of rubber hose on one end to feed the gas into another vehicle or a suitable container.
a good spot is the fuel filter, remove it, attach the hose on the fuel line coming out of the gas tank, and when you're done put in a new filter.
once your hose is set up, turn the key into the on position, right before actually cranking the engine. the pump will begin pumping gasoline at about 40psi so make sure that hose is on there tight and isn't going to spray gas all over the place.

What do you mean by "wrong fuel"? How wrong could it be? You can throw in an additive to deal with the water, but if it is just the wrong octane gasoline don't worry about it much.
I once had an idiot gas station attendant put about two gallons of gasoline into my tank, which was labeled "DIESEL FUEL ONLY". We filled up the rest of the tank with diesel and absolutely nothing happened.
It's hard to believe but there are people out there stupider than me.

human beings, human beings, human beings, do no longer make this man or woman drop his tank it incredibly is a huge interest and pointless at that. flow down on your interior of reach plumbing grant residing house and get somewhat pump which would be related to the top of a typical drill, then get a length of popular backyard hose stick the shrink end into the tank. Siphon off as much as you are able to and then fill the tank with sparkling gas. you would be high-quality.

There really is know way that I know of other than remove the tank. You might be able to draw some of the gas out with a hose. but most vehicles are hard to do that from now days.

how much gas he put in it what grade was it if it's good grade it's good it would clean ur engine and spark but it might make a tiking noise , unless u want to drain the fuel out disconect the line from the filter and open the ignition key , but don't do it more then 1-2 minutes then do it again . or it's better to diconnect it from the injecter fuel rail that way u won't have to go under the car .

Be careful if it has water in it. Your engine could hydrolock. Just burn all of the gas that is in the tank. Get two bottles of "HEET". HEET lets the water and the gasoline to mix allowing you to burn it out of your fuel tank. This is why people use HEET just before the winter. That water could freeze causing fuel line failure, and possibly, clogging the fuel system. Dont bother syphoning it out. Just get HEET.

if you have water mixed in your fuel tank the best thing to do is to add an appropriate amount of gasline antifreeze to your tank and burn off the low grade gas

spihon it but if it has water in it its probably done some serios damage to not only the tank but the pipes going to the engine. Take it to a mechanic for advice.
