In trying to get my coach out of storage today, it seems like the fuel pump has given up the ghost and won't pump fuel. The coach was sitting near empty for over a year ( inside storage, so no propane or gasoline ), and I wonder if things dried out. With a squirt of fuel into the carb, she fired right off, but the fuel filter was dry after a lot of cranking, so no gas.

Has anyone successfully driven their coaches using a portable marine type gas tank sitting in the passenger footwell? Does the fuel siphon down into the carb OK? I have about a 45 mile drive to get the coach back home where I can work on things easier.
