was there any sign of the fabled screen on the fuel pickup tube ?
sure looks like one could switch the inlet and outlet !!
my outlet is slightly restricted compared to the return line in the tank and I am thinking of doing it.
I used a compressor at 100lbs to back blow the lines to no effect.

MY gasoline powered 84 ran out of gas before the gauge hit the red,
when it was all done I figured I had 4 gal left. The fix was a new
tank but I was not able to find anything wrong with the old one.
