Thanks, Graham. You reminded me of another problem. The PO (2nd owner) claims he's never gotten a fill-up during his brief ownership. Upon my first fill-up, I ended-up in a pool of gas. Haven't fixed it yet. I understand from reading the archives that it's probably the crossover hoses. There was a post specific to this very problem. See you all soon, Ben Citadel Properties.
