Hello,
About 10 miles from home I noticed a slight hesitation going up hills. My gas gauge which works intermittently showed a little less then a quarter tank, so I pulled over a put some fuel in and did not feel the hesitation again. I always leave my switch on main tank, honestly have no idea if the tank selector even works. This makes me think that somewhere along the line my Main tank became my front tank, which is backwards. Is this something even worth messing with, as everything seems to work with gas in the tanks?
When I felt the hesitation I also heard two large bangs a seconds apart. It sounded like something firmly hitting glass or the plywood floor, it did not sound mechanical and I did not feel it through the drive train. Now I am chalking this up to unseen road debris since it did not happen again, but though I'd mention it in case I am missing something.
