    ....the algae actually grows in the moisture or water in the fuel, not the fuel itself....so if there's algae, that's an indication that you've got water in your fuel....

    Forscan Code P1280......

    ok....would you know how to test the plug itself for proper voltage and so forth, because I have a hunch it's the wires, and not the sensor. (would rather not spend $150.00 on replacing a sensor that may not be bad).

    Forscan Code P1280......

    Thanks jasper....so I should unplug the sensor with the engine off?....when you say "stay running", do you mean no sputtering or surging?

    Forscan Code P1280......

    Forscan Code P1280......

    .....yes...I agree.....but the sensor on my truck is the original. I haven't replaced it yet. I just don't want to start throwing good money at bad. Can a sensor go bad just by the passage of time?

    Hutch & Harpoon Mod......

    do you have installation videos of the sump you speak of?

    Hutch & Harpoon Mod......

    it's a fuel tank modification in which you go inside the tank and cut a portion of the filler and air tube off with a PVC cutter, resulting in larger fuel tank capacity. There are many YouTube videos regarding this procedure. Why they call it "harpooning" the tank is beyond me. The hutch mod...
