Is the pick up tube located where the metal line goes into the top of the fuel tank?

 

If you're refering to an in cab tank, the pick-up is a long tube inside the tank directly below where the metal line screws into the tank.

 

yes Bobby, the tank behind the seat in the cab. I read where people have cleaned thes tube and was wondering how they accessed it.

 

Not too sure how they may have cleaned it, as it is not removable.
Maybe a big 'ol pipe cleaner?

 

You might try a rifle cleaning rod

 

Well, I checked mine and it was not dirty. Infact, the tank was very clean inside so, I decided to tear into the carb. I found the power valve was blown and, there was a lot of silt in the botton of the bowl. After the overhaul, it runs like new.

 

Nice, glad everything worked out well for you.

 

I had a clogged pickup tube and used a piece of threaded rod just smaller than the tube and a lot of carb cleaner. It took some time but it worked!

 

Thats a good idea stepside!
