Message: <blockquote data-quote="LazyKG" data-source="post: 98013" data-attributes="member: 12643"><p>After running fine since conquering all the fuel problems last summer, something new: it "runs out of gas" after 20 minutes of regular use even though the tank is nearly full. _____ This has the 4 cyl. ford gas motor. I replaced the fuel filter, repositioned the 1 year old electric fuel pump (that I realized I had mounted higher than the bottom of the tank), shortened up the fuel lines to keep lines and filter above pump, ran with the fuel filler cap removed, even blew the line from filter back into the tank to confirm no blockage; all to no avail. _____ I have a clear filter on and can see that the fuel level in the filter drops to near nothing when the engine stalls. If I leave the beast sit overnight (or until the filter fills up), it'll start and run for another 20 minutes. I can take off the fuel line at the pump inlet and gas pours from the line, apparently without obstruction. After putting the line back on the pump and waiting a while, the fuel filter fills up and I can run another 20 minutes. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.</p></blockquote><p></p>
