Remember to eat the mint after sucking the petrol out petrol flavoured polos aren't very nice.

You could let the engine do the hard work by disconnecting the return pipe to the tank into a fuel container. Or a syphon pipe with a rubber squeeze bulb to drain into a fuel container. Isnt there a drain plug to undo available on you tank. The irish tinker method is to stab the tank with a screwdriver.

As above, let the fuel pump do the hard work. Short out the fuel relay, disconnect the relevant pipe in the engine bay, and pump it straight into a fuel can

Why not drink the fuel by sucking on the feed pipe, and pee in a fuel container!
