I have a 05 Stang, the fuel in the tank is not transfering from one side to the other. Thought it was the fuel pump but when I removed it that side of the tank was empty, the other side is full. Gauge is showing half tank anyone have any ideals?

Not really, mine will run great till the side with the pump gets empty then it just stops. Don't know exactly how the gas tank is designed but for some reason the fuel on the passenger side is not getting to the pump side.

There should be some sort of siphon tube going between the two sides, see if you can find it and run something through it to try and unclog it.
