The primer pump was bad, so I imagine that is why they could not get it started, and towed it back home. Yes the dented oil pan crushed the rubber piece, and broke it at the seam where it attaches to the pickup. I did not bother to replace it, as it seemed to work without the piece on the bottom (I did not have a replacement anyway).

So Brad did not try to start the engine immediately after stalling and waited til after new fuel filters were installed before trying to start the engine?
