FUEL TANK MODIFICATION


Reference is made to the story of  "A Working Relic" published February 22nd.    The old 1912 CAT grader was not running with much power, so we investigated the diesel output from the fuel pump and found only one line producing any fuel.   The problem was a rusty fuel tank with debris choking fuel lines leading into the fuel pump.   A neighbor found an old tin tank that he mounted behind the cab, placed a new fuel line with filter to the fuel pump.    Does not look too professional, but it works and all four cylinders are getting fuel now with power to spare.
