Fuel does not stop
Trying to disconnect the lines from the engine area. The fuel pressure does not stop. The battery is disconnected and I cant figure it out .

You're getting a syphon. Loosen the filler cap, and you may have to crimp the lines.

Jack up the front of the car, the end of the lines are actually lower so it runs out and will until it can't anymore.

Remove the filler door and rubber boot. You'll see rubber lines. Crimp the pressure side (two clamps).
