  That clears it up. I'll be on the lookout for one.

   I know that the bottom feed tank is easier to drain. Is there an easy way to drain the top feed tank? Do they make power syphons? The tank is heavy and cumbersome to begin with.

   I remember at the dealership the service manager saying that fuel pump noise was a common complaint problem. I think that a big part of the trouble was that people were not vigilant about not letting the tank run down low. The fuel cools that intank pump. I even verified that one time. But it was on the wagon, which has easier access. The trouble was, I knew better when I did it.
