Yes, the strainer in the bottom of the tank. I have twice now, run out of fuel early - at just under an indicated 1/4 tank. When I tried to change the strainer last time, I just got a trickle of fuel out of the hose so something is definitely wrong.

Also, there's virtually no access to the strainer as well as it seems to be pretty much welded in from age so I had to buy a couple more tools and parts otherwise, the car would be completely disabled when I destroyed the strainer trying to get it off.

We'll see how it rolls tomorrow morning when I start the tank draining process.
