  2. YES YES AND YES as I have been saying on here for some time a lot can learnt from your Australian cousins but and its a big BUT the US have to stop telling customers what they want and start to listen to what the customer is asking for end of the day the only time we look at getting something different is when what we have doesnt suit us any more The big lesson to be learnt is if you cant sell what you are making dont blame everyone else maybe you just arent making what they want Paul

  10. Fuel is meant to drain back to the tank its the way it is designed to work the fuel gets siphoned back thru the return line when the truck isnt running hence the fact it looses prime The so called check valves in in the transfer pump arent to hold the fuel up to the motor they are just to supply fuel when running Paul

  12. mate I didnt read it all what hope has the US got when the people at the top are to spineless to call things what they are surely with events unfolding around the world these gutless wonders at the top need to stop pussyfooting around and call a spade a spade and to hell with what the rest of the world thinks and lead with whats true and right Yeah yeah I know Im not a yank but this crap gives me the jimmy brits and we have the same weak people running our show I was talking to a good friend the other day about how to fix the show and he and I agreed look back to when we were going good replicate it !!! After all it worked and worked well it made countries like ours the envy of the world and I can tell you it wasnt done with weak spineless leaders it was done with men yes men (and Im not sexist but it was men) that had vision on how things should and could be done to benefit all sorry for my rant but Im getting a bit dagged off with these so called wanna be leaders Paul

  14. I was told by some one much smarter than me that when this happens its the return line to the tank as there is no check valve in system and it siphons back around till the pressure is equal when its not running if this makes any sense Paul
