No disrespect to you Brian. I know it's not called a drain plug, but if you remove the tank strainer with fuel in the tank, it will definitely allow the remaining contents to "drain". I think even with Kerry's wonderful idea, there will still be
some fuel that will need to be caught in a pan or a wad of shop rags or it will end up on the floor.
Another benefit to Kerry's method of emptying the tank is that the fuel will be strained and filtered and you won't need additional filtering before putting it back in your tank when the strainer is cleaned and reinstalled.
If your strainer is really gunked up, you might want to use some biocide in your next few tanks and keep some extra filters in your car.

Post #2 has a photo of the tool I use to remove the strainer on a wagon.
