You will need to drop the tank down remove the fuel pump module and then siphon the gas that way.
SOURCE: Contaminated fuel
most gas tanks don't have a drain plug.can eith try siphoning it out with a hose called a magic siphoning hose or disconnect the fuel line and put the line in a container to catch the bad gas.
other option is to drop the fuel tank and empty

the easiest way is to lift the car and unhook the fuel filter and cycle the fuel pump to push it out of the tank. you may have to cycle the key quite a few times to get it out but is easier than dropping the tank to empty it. if you crank the starter for a second the pump will run longer each cycle should get a couple gallons per cycle from the fuel line.

Did you check the fuel pump relay switch? (behind R-headlight, from radiator, 3rd over [3.1 V6])
They have caused many unnecessary pump replacements.
As for the pump; You will need to drop the tank, but emptying it isn't required.
First: Disconnect the battery.
There are 2 straps holding the tank to the vehicle, and once out you'll pull the sending unit at the top of the tank.
* Remove the electrical connections before opening the fuel lines...redundant, I know...but safe.
Should the weight of a full tank be an issue, a cheap hand-pump from Autozone will connect to the primary fuel line in order to transfer the fuel to containers (or another vehicle).

could be engine isnt cranking fast enough which is a bad earth from battery to engine or a starter motor with the windings faulty or just a duff battery ,it must have a minimum of a 74amp hour battery to work right a 45 amp one will not crank engine fast enough thats for sure

DO NOT PUT PETROL IN A MODERN DIESEL ENGINE. Diesel is a lubricate fuel and protects the internal fine tolerance working parts of the diesel fuel system. Petrol is a cleaning agent and removes all the lubricate from the internal fine tolerance working parts of the diesel fuel system this can cause unrepairable damage to the engine. Drain the fuel tank (it may be easier to remove the fuel tank to clean it out properly), all fuel lines and the fuel filter, refill tank and fuel lines and filter with diesel bleed the fuel system including the fuel injectors (I always bleed it back into a drain pipe into a bottle at the return pipe connection at the fuel tank to ensure that all the petrol is out of the fuel system before starting the engine) once started put some good quality diesel fuel cleaner in the fuel tank to make sure the injector tips are cleaned out. Note change the fuel filter again after another 2000 miles of running
