Fuel starvation fix...possibly. Suggestions?

I kinda see what you're saying but just don't think its enough. I don't think fuel will be that high on the tank to apply force. Like half way down you may have 5 gallons above pushing with 30lbs. But up top you may have 1 gallon with 6lbs of force. Two of these have over 60lbs of strength. I might do 4 for over 120lbs. There just to strong for a liquid force I think. 4 are $28. I'll just buy them now and play around.

Nice idea. Now next question. How wide is it? Because it would have to fit through a hole about 4.5" in diameter. It would be easier to go through the hole on the drivers side. Just unplug the sending unit on top and remove the sending unit. On the fuel pump side. You have fuel hoses that you have to unplug inside the tank. If you got big mitts. It's hard. Belieive me.
