Default Draining Old Gas

I want to clear a few things up-

When using the HASport axles for a b18c swap, I'll use a 90-93 integra intermediate shaft? Will the axles mate up to the DX hubs without a problem?

And one more thing-

I'm afraid that the car still had some fuel before the previous owner blew the motor. Is there a drain plug under the fuel tank? And if not, how am I going to get the left over gas out? I assume it's pretty old-

The answers to your questions are all yes. At least they were with my swap.

I just drained my old gas. Here are some tips:

1. Use an oil change pan. Some will drain out fast, some gas will run down the fuel tank and drip off the front edge. The plug is on the drivers side, facing the rear wheel.
2. Put down cardboard
3. Don't smoke
4. Replace the crush washer on the plug.
5. Have some rags handy.
