Do NOT go a*p*e*s*h*i*t* and auger out the hole Now go reread the last line. Or the probe will fail. It...- Clb

The rear tank doesn’t like to take fuel
the tricks were tipping the filler side higher than the ditch side to help airflow, driving up onna 2x6 block to do the same, and rocking the bed ( which don't really help) Mine will now let me use the class 8 truck fillers, just cut out the stupid flapper thing- Clb
