Started going through troubleshooting... codes are fine, checked all the connections to vital sensors and switches... all are fine. Switched over to Hydra to see if it would at least start... nothing. At this point started to suspect the fuel pump  Pressure in the fuel line post fuel filter is not there, I can squeeze the line with my hand... Pressure pre-fuel filter is also the same... non-existent... So... I guess the SVX throws yet another curve ball at me.
Fuel tank is at 95% capacity... and as far as I know replacing the fuel pump requires an empty tank, any suggestions on how to drain the tank and perform this fix out of a parking lot?

Kirill,
The fuel pump is easily accessed through the silver plate (4 philips head screws) in your floor behind your rear seat, under the trunk carpet. You do not need an empty tank.
