Perhaps some people already know this, but figured I'd pass the info along for the 24 valve swapped crowd.
Recently I swapped my 6-cylinder e36 radiator for an off-the-shelf Behr Z3M S54 radiator a few weeks ago and the car seems to overall run a bit cooler in stop and go traffic (half way mark on temp gauge vs a few ticks over half way previously). I only have a 16" Spal pusher fan with the 80/88 degree temp switch and 88 degree thermostat for reference. The core is thicker, but you can still use stock e36 top & bottom radiator hoses without any modifications. For ~150 bucks and a little better cooling, it seems like a no-brainer. Granted weather is a bit cooler this time of year, but may be handy for the summer months.
Only down sides so far is the car takes a little longer to warm up when cold, and I think a fan clutch setup is not going to fit without shaving fan blades (e36 diesel fan may fit with fan clutch mounted on front, but blades have to be notched/shaved to clear vanos unit).

yes, if you have a gas tank with the crossover pipe onthe bottom just loosen one side and gas will come out . or some tanks have a drain bolt by the fuel pump. i only know from my early model.
or if you supply 12v to the internal fuel pump and attach a hose to it and catch it in a bucket. just be careful
