[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 151334, member: 3278"] You mentioned you have two "pressure tanks". A pressure tank has two lines, one for a fuel supply to the engine and the second for crankcase pressure that feeds and pressurizes the tank and pushes the fuel to the engine, hence the name pressure tank. On your engine you have a fuel pump and need only a single line tank. Also, don't be fooled by the engine firing on a shot of fuel (although thats a great sign) you should still be replacing lots of service parts before running the engine for an extended time. [/QUOTE]
