Last time I checked, I cannot push or pull a GMC Motor home by hand.
In hot weather, I do occasionally experience vapor lock. I have an
auxiliary fuel pump connected to the auxiliary fuel tank valve so that when
I change the position of the switch from main to auxiliary, the fuel pump
will run. I NEVER, EVER, run any vehicle I own below 1/4 of a tank, and
gages on a GMC are notoriously inaccurate. You are free to do anything you
wish in this regard. I wish you well.
