Solutions

UGGG..

this was the cause of my continual (intermittent) fuel delivery issues..

I had purchased this fuel tank (and electric fuel pump) at swap meet in 2008, it was used and I never figured out why someone would sell it..

now I might know.. Perhaps the previous owner had issues as well.

apparently the fuel hose was just loose enough to not supply sufficient pressure to the engine.. THUS intermittent and inconsistent fuel delivery. additionally, I realized that this is just regular old fuel hose.. NOT the submersible type necessary for this application

chased my tail too long on this one..



while I was at it I added a new sock filter, re tightened the clamps. and reinstalled the pump,.

We're were back on the road..
