Title: Fuel delivery problem
Post by: Jet Boat Maloney on March 23, 2014, 09:09:25 AM

Can't get any fuel to flow from drivers side tank. I'm hoping and praying its just a hose collapsing  internally. I'm gonna try that first if its in the tank not going to be able to fix before Parker so I'll just make up a transfer pump. Fingers crossed!!

Hook a hose to the pickup and try to siphon gas out. Easy check.

Im pretty sure its not a hose inside the tank. 

Could be the old ball check in the pick up they used back in the day
