Fuel Screen question
In another post I start in reagrds my 1984 300D running out of fuel after using only half tank. Several people recommended cleaning the screen, I did that today and found very little junk on the screen to prevent fuel delivery. My question is: If this unit is at the very bottom of the tank. What prevent the fuel delivery system from accessing all of the 20+ gal fuel.
It was mentioned if I ran out of fuel (engined died and not start) at half tank consumption, the screen is clogged and preventing the access to the remaining 10 gal the tank holds. From what I saw after removing the screen, it was a straight shoot with no chambers allocating amount of fuel to access.
I am just curious what to check next in the event with the clean screen, the car will die after half is consumed.
