I thought I read somewhere I need the car 2.5 feet off the ground in order to slide the gas tank out from under. Can't find it back. Right now I have 19" between the bottom of the tank and the ground. Not enough yet?
Then to drop tank,examine, clean, seal, reinstall. I wonder if shops do this for a fee? Might be worth it to have it done rather than do it oneself?
BTW just topped off tank yesterday and although it was running fine the pump was loud and the filter I put between the tank and pump was full of rust.
Now I am gravity draining the tank and it started out with a good flow, now down to a trickly and there should be at least 8 gallons or so still in there, so I'm guessing the sock is gummed up inside.
I'm thinking clean/seal and reach in and destroy the sock. Then forever use a filter between tank and pump.
This is an FI set up BTW.
