I need to drain the fuel on my truck and can not get a hose into the tank. Was also told to take lines off top of tank to siphon, can't feel any lines. What do I do?

not having ever worked on 3rd gen dodges, not too sure how good my advice will be, but on my 96, i found its easiest to just pull the bed, pull the fuel pump and then either syphen the gas or just use an aftermarket electric fuel pump
