Like I said bud there was no sucking of anything involved. Just a little blowing... that is different. It is just that there happened to be gas inside the fuel filter under investigation and the outlet nozzle was just under my nostril. My hard luck... but at least I am out there workin' on the beast. I am not a sheep that waddles down to the garage to get it up the ass..
btw we are talking about a 73 Datsun 240Z here... a classic... from just outside of LA, your turf.
