You need to crawl under the car and detach the fill tube and insert your hose directly into the gasoline tank. Going through the hole where you normally fill the tank won't work because there is a valve on it that will stop you. You might be able to break that valve if you ram hard enough with a very stiff garden hose but the debris will clog the filter and the vehicle will be unsafe if it's ever in a wreck.
