Default its always the little things....

Well ive been battling a fuel issue for two Weeks now. I kept getting air in my primer bulb so I though it was a bad bulb. Checked all my lines and fittings hose clamps etc....everything looked good.So put about a gallon of gas in and barowed my neighbors bulb and ran like a champ so I got a mew primer bulb.... Same thing.... So then I started thinking it might be in the carb,, something getting stuck or maybe the tank. So put some fuel in a gas can and stuck the hose in and she primed right up.started checking out the tank and decided to look at tge pick up tube. Turns the tube is about an imch off the bottom and 2 1/2 gallons of gas isnt enough for it to pick up simce its like a 12 gallon tank. So put some more gas in it today and she ran like a champ.took me two Weeks just to realize I didnt have enough gas.....all I can do is laugh about it now
