Wink Here was my fuel problem, the sock(pic), what

Happened. I cut that bitch open, inspected it. The first picture, is how the collar of the sock is supposed to be. It is posed to be flush with the bottom of the fitting.. It was like that when installed. I guess since it sits on the bottom, of the tank, had pressure against it, every bump I hit, it worked its way up the neck of the fitting, in the end, choked the fuel off, cause the haneus noises I was hearing.. In that case it was only a few small holes for it to pick up fuel.. So I guess it isn't supposed sit on the bottom, like the stock one does.So in conclusion, I need to find a sock that won't do that, or shortin the legs on the bucket again.. What a load off my back, it was driving me crazy...
Not that you all care, but this may help sombody out one day
