Removed the tank, filter and pump today. Had a look in the tank while I had the fuel neck out of it. I noticed on the sump some rust particals on the bottom, rest of the tank was clean. I then pulled my filter apart and woah.. Definitely a contributor to my problem. This filter was plumbed in before the pump.
Cannot understand how much rust there was. Car has always been in a controlled temperature, tank and sump both new..
A loaded filter. Explains the car always going flat on the big end. Amazing it went 10.87 @ 123 with this filter on Sunday.
The pump had to suck the fuel through that filter and then push it to the front.. Going with the new fuel cell will eliminate this problem. I'm betting that fuel gauge will sit at 7 lbs now and not flicker. Will be good to start being able to fine tune the 64 with this problem out of the way.
