    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

pictures of how you did this along with a detailed set of instructions (like the carb cleaning tutorial)
would be a good thing to do so that others can do this if they want

You're right Spyderman. I was thinking of that when I first replied to the thread but thought my simple explanation would suffice. I will go and remove the petcock before I fill the tank and take some pics.
 
Thanks KatManDo,

When I posted this I did not understand how the vac pet works specifically the prime position. I had it in prime when I thought I was in normal mode and the fuel would not shut off. I am used to manual petcocks from my experience with the CBs. So long as the vac works I can deal with it. If it fails I will go manual.
