[QUOTE="conc2steel, post: 22703, member: 1320"] You're going to love this. The previous owner had appearantly replaced the pickup tube too, and also the return tube. Then he'd installed them backwards! The effect is that when the tank was full and the vehicle wasn't bouncing around, it would pull fuel from the return line. I think that the return line he'd installed was as long as the pickup tube originally... and had broken through use when I had it creating the problem. To be honest, I still cant figure out how the bobcat ran in the past set up like this... perhaps the retun and suction line didn't have the pickup tube filter/1 way valve. Lesson: Trace the fuel lines when dealing with a used machine! [/QUOTE]
