Could there possibly be some kind of "ball" in the filler tube that prevent fuel spillage during a rollover????
Ok...I'm re-posting this from the other forum...RedWings44...what are your thoughts to my problem??
Couple years ago I tried to siphon the fuel out of my 97 SVT that had been sitting in storage for a while and the damn hose that had a plastic "thingy" on the end of it pull off the hose as I was removing it because I couldn't push the hose down into the tank far enough.
So instead decided to just stabil the fuel during storage which flows into the tank fine - no back up - as well as the can of Seafoam I put in after pulling it out of storage. Drove it a distance to burn-down the 1/4 tank of "old" fuel and when I went to fill the tank it took me over 20 minutes!!!!!!
The gas pump's auto-overfill shutout kept engaging...my hand got tired because I literally had to trickle the gas in...
Here's my question...it there a screen at the end of the fuel filler tube that's 4-bolted to the fuel tank that that "thinky" and possibly an old gas cap part is clogging the fuel filler tube???
Has anyone out there ever replaced their fuel tank that can offer some experienced eyes insight??
