There's a serious risk to fire there. You have to think about where the gasoline is going to go. Splashing across the engine of a car that's TURNED ON is extremely stupid.
If you can rearrange fuel lines so you positively capture the gas in a container, then using the car's fuel pump to empty the tank is kinda smart, however it's vital you shut off the fuel pump the instant it goes dry -- fuel pumps cannot run dry and are destroyed very quickly.
You won't get any debris that way, though. There's a second filter you don't know about on the fuel pickup inside the tank. It's designed to keep debris out of the fuel pump.
If this is an imaginary problem, forget about it. If this is a real and serious problem you are trying to solve, you'll probably need to drop the gas tank. So make it as light as possible first, by if possible, driving the car til it's on %26quot;E%26quot;, and as far past %26quot;E%26quot; as you dare push it. Also be prepared to buy new tank straps if the old ones look rusty. And be very careful pulling the tank, so you don't damage the wiring or the ground strap. Ugh, it's a dirty job.Park Avenue fuel filter change-is it safe to turn the key on with the filter off to exspell debree from the -?If there is something in the tank,the best thing to do would be to remove the tank and cleanit.

This is a very serious fire hazard and gas will come out at high pressure. There is no way to get debris out of your fuel tank unless you remove the tank and have it steam cleaned. Thats the only way. There is a filter on the bottom of the fuel pump that is in your fuel tank that works to keep your fuel supply clean and any debris in the tank.Park Avenue fuel filter change-is it safe to turn the key on with the filter off to exspell debree from the -?That won't help much. If you have debris in the tank you need to remove the tank and clean it out. Running the debris through the pump wouldn't be good for it even if that did work. Most fuel pumps will only run for about a second with the gas line disconnected anyways.
