> The filter is between the fuel tank, and fuel pump. It is on the un-pressurized side.
>Now, the dang thing KEEPS RUNNING OUT OF GAS. I'll just be driving along and the tractor dies. I pull the line off the input to the fuel filter, and just a little bit trickles out.
the problem is in the tank or the short section of pipe between the tank and the filter input.
disconnecting where you did...between tank and filter inlet...
you just made a tank drain....it should flow steadily until the tank is empty.
my guess...there are flakes, debris in the tank. blowing air back moves them, but on re-assembly, they will go right to the hole again....just like a sink drain.
ps..this statement...
>A couple of weeks back, I ran the tractor out of gas, and it sucked a bunch of debris into the fuel line, which clogged right up.
kinda confirms what everybody is saying....running out of gas with a good tank...is just that..out of gas..put some more in...
if it instantly clogged up after re-fueling...tank is a mess.
