doubleclutchinweasel Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Fuel level kept falling in lh tank & rising in rh tank. Filled up the rh fuel tank. Fuel would not transfer to lh tank. Vent tubes were plugged. Cleaned them out and now the fuel levels equalized. Simple fix to a strange one. Quote "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines."

Superdog Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 That happens more often than you think.Only time I ever ran a truck out of fuel,my first CH,a '91 I bought used,had a fuel heater in the left (draw)tank,so they moved the fuel guage to the right tank.Vent plugged up sucked the left tank dry whileshowing I had 3/8 of a tank,which I did in the right.Never trusted a fuel guage since.

jakebrake86 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Yep, I had the same thing happen on an '87 R model and a '95 DM. The first time it happened I thought I was going crazy! Quote Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
