Trucks have 2 tanks, or more. So you would need to have two pumps and supporting lines, wires, etc.

'Gimp' mode is a function available with electronically controlled engines. A part fails. So the computer makes compensations to keep the engine running in a 'safe' mode (see 'Check Engine' light to appreciate same in cars). Best repair service is obtained when a truck can drive into the shop - not on the side of some road. |

Oh good gravy! My fuel pump is gear-driven and that would be difficult to engineer all that way.
I'll see what I can do about pics, inside and out. My chair is quite comfortable, a nice change from seats past. It's wider and softer, and my armrests are adjustable and not broken off for once. I'm liking this, goofy electrical system aside.
