Remove tank from car, Tip it upside down to drain remaining fuel.
DO NOT WELD the tank if it is leaking or the remaining fuel fumes will explode.

Either have a fuel pump going bad, or a high current draw due to corrosion of the wiring harness. Professional Diagnosis is recomended to prevent hours of swearing befor you realize the kids an hear you.

The fuel pump is in the fuel tank. You may be able to access the fuel tank by removing your bottom rear seat cushion. If no access there you must remove the fuel tank. If you have to remove the tank and it is mostly full you should siphon out as much fuel as you can into appropriate containers.

Yes it does have a cut switch, located on the fire wall in the engine compactment. If you push the black button it will reset it. I don't think it's that . I think you should check the fuse, if good you should leave the key in on position or the # 2 position for 5 minutes so the fuel pump can prime the line.


Good luck
