Consumer Description

THE FUEL FILTER CLOGS BUT THERE IS A SHORT BYPASS HOSE TO THE MIDDLE LEVEL OF THE TANK, WHEN THE FILTER CLOGS THE SYSTEM RECEIVES UNFILTERED THROUGH THE BYPASS HOSE, WHEN THE LEVEL GOES BELOW 1/2 TANK. THE PUMP SUCKS AIR AND THE SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN FOR LACK OF FUEL. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND NOT A CRITICAL SAFETY PROBLEM BUT IT DOES AFFECT SAFETY TO AN EXTENT. I.E. YOU THINK YOU HAVE A HALF TANK OF GAS. BUT IT MAY STOP AT ANY TIME WITHOUT WARNING. O IN HEAVY TRAFFIC LOR ON THE RAIL ROAD TRACKS.
