2003 Escape Fuel Sampling

I'm trying to find the best place to sample some fuel from the tank and lines to see if its contaminated.

First of all the car will not run. A shop has pulled the plenum and etc.

If I undo the line at the fuel rail , will the pump run and disperse fuel just from turning the ignition key to the on position ?

With some helpful tips, I found the panel for the fuel pump. If I can borrow the special tool needed is that the best way to pump all of the fuel out and clean the tank ?
