92-94 gas tank plug
 
On the bottom of the tank on the side like the oil pan isn’t there a drain plug for the gas? I will see when I get home, but if anyone knows I can change my plans after work

I'm thinking there isnt...

If I'm right, then just run it low on gas then drop the tank to do whatever you need to do.

How much gas do you have in there? You could try putting in some really strong octane booster (not that STP crap) and you could potentially boost the octane past that of E85 which isn't THAT high.
