[QUOTE="MT, post: 66932, member: 4661"] My 773F dies when the fuel is down about 4-5 gallons. I figure it is the fuel pick up tube, which is know to break off and not reach as far into the tank as it should. So, I am topping the tank and fluid starts running out the back left corner under the battery. Its parked on the side of hill leaning a little to the left if that matters. About 1.5 quarts came out. I thought it was diesel and maybe the tank was cracked near the top but it appears to be water. I even soaked a paper towel in it and tried to light it with a propane torch. Pretty sure it is just water, not coolant. What is going on here? I recall parking it in the garge a few weeks ago and found a small puddle on the floor in the morning. That was water as well. I though some water collected somewhere while it was out in the rain and wrote it off as a non issue. Why in the world would water run out when putting fuel in the tank? And where is water coming from? This is really weird. TIA, Martin [/QUOTE]
