    Hmm . . . none as yet, that's why i'm here . . .
    Problem is you need it, to make the dang truck run.
    Here's my problem.
    Truck would start and die, start and die, I know its out of gas. I put approx 2 gallons ish in. Drive to gas station. Can only squeeze 7 more gallons in. My math makes that 9ish gallons, WHY?
    Gas gauge reading correct is another issue.

    Is the tank full? This sounds like an issue with your fuel pump. Loses pressure and can't pump fuel past a certain point.

    Still thinking about it.
    Hmm... The amount of fuel in the tank wouldn't matter to healthy pump as long as there is some.. Interesting.
