After you cleaned the strainer and sending unit, did your reserve light start to work again, assuming it was not working before, like mine is not working?

When I had to change my vent and return lines, I got a diesel can and kept some diesel fuel in the trunk. Then I let the car run out of fuel and put a gallon or so back in, just enough to get home. So I knew how much was in there that I had to deal with. You have to be careful though, as to where you are driving. I was on roads where I could easily pull off and add some fuel. You don't want to run out as you are making a turn, crossing traffic.

A smarter idea would probably be to just siphon the fuel out, without taking a mouthful of diesel, or course. Diesel breath, yuk. Scares the women away.
