Long story short, when I ripped out the old floor and put the insulation under it, I removed a screw that had been put straight through and into the fuel tank below!!!
Thanks previous owner, thanks.
So that meant when I filled it to full yesterday it began squirting out continuously.
Now I need to run through miles and miles more diesel, and pretend I don’t notice the diesel drip. Can’t drop the tank to fix/replace unless it’s empty, and currently it’s 3/4 full.
Needless to say this is a setback I had not anticipated.
