Hi Al,

Not certain I understand how vacuuming a tank = makes things=20 worst, unless you are saying it could give you a false sense of all = being well,=20 but with debris remaining.

But, more to the point. I suggest you = write up your=20 concerns about tank vacuuming and submit it vial the "mail" link at the = bottom=20 of the menu list. This will send it to the webpage monitor who can = post it=20 to the exist material.

Holy crap. I just skimmed the fuel sys suggestions. This = is example=20 of good intentions not being enough. It recommends vacuuming out your = fuel=20 tanks. Vacuuming tanks is the number one cause for fuel contamination. = The=20 vacuum cleaner displaces material in bottom of tank and forces it to = corners,=20 hidden from view.

If you use vacuum cleaner, you must duct tape small diam hose to = the=20 nozzle. Thus reducing the amount of air it displaces. Please change = the site,=20 and put this info in BOLD. It's a key item.
