[QUOTE="lesgawlik, post: 91872, member: 4115"] I saw a fantastic post about how to get around the fuel pickup problem. The filler tube is split and a 1" section is removed. The section is replaced with a section of stainless tubing, and later secured by hose clamps. Before the stainless section is installed, a flat area of about 3/4" diameter is hammered in the middle of the length of the tube, and a hole drilled through the tube. A stainless through-fitting with barbs on both ends is screwed into the hole. A length of fuel line with the pickup is run down the open filler tube into the tank, and the other end is secured to the inner barb of the through fitting. Put the stainless section into the filler tube, and secure with clamps. Press the fuel line to the engine onto the barb fitting on the outside of the stainless section, and you're done. In essence, you're running the fuel line through the filler tube, and daylighting it through a section of stainless tubing spliced into the filler tube. I thought that was absolute genius, and I just wish I had saved the pictures. [/QUOTE]
