However, my Magnette doesn't have the banjo nut on the top of the tank for gas line. My tank has a rubber hose located approx 1 1/2 inches under the large rubber filler tube for gas line that goes to the fuel pump. This afternoon I replaced the fuel pump ( which was a waste of time and energy). Disconnecting the fuel line from tank should have spilled out a bit of gas. Nothing. Blowing into gas line I could hear air entering gas tank.... Filter not clogged ( if there is one). So.... The pickup tube in the tank must be loose/goofed up.
