I just spent a ton of money on my motor,Now it acts like it is running out of gas.I pulled the gas line from the gas tank and unscrewed the brass elbow and found no check valve and only a 1.5" pickup tube.There is got to be more than that.PLEASE HELP.

Howdy Hogtamer. The rest of your pickup is lying on the bottom of the tank. Been there. Good luck.<br /><br />Red sky at night. . . <br />JB
