Great job on the tank fix. My lesson learned story….. Once just after I purchased our 1980 coach, I was parked on a farm road out in the countryside visiting with dear friends. The driver side was off the road about 3 ft so to allow some traffic to pass as needed. The fuel gauge showed about 3/8 of a tank but actually I had just shy of 1/4 of a tank)… (5 inches on the stick, measured in manual mode) (yes I have a 20 inch fuel stick I check the fuel level with in all three tanks, fuel hack learned as a youngster as our old diesel tractor never had a working fuel gauge and we always used a stick). Ok so the funny part was , at the angle I was sitting the driver side showed about 8 inches on the stick and the passenger side was almost at zero. Well we didn’t realize this until the engine stopped. I was out of fuel… at least that’s what the coach thought even though it showed almost half full on the gauge!! Lesson learned from where the fuel pickup is on the extreme right side of the coach and no fuel. It was a quick fix, my buddy pulled me back to the center of the road with the tank level and she started right up with starting fluid. I was definitely embarrassed… Lesson learned. (My main 190 gallon tank can be filled from either side of the coach). But I don’t know if there’s a sump there or not.
