i finally was able to get to finishing the repair.

turns out that the rubber hose on the fuel pump inside the tank had vibrated loose and since these fuel systems arent volume pumps but pressure...

i just pull over & get out & start to cry when this happens to me. lol

update....dropped fuel cell. cleaned it out with mineral spirits & steam. replacing sock & probably the pump too.

if it is shaped like a stop sign then it's the 8.25
