I have a M923A1 that was losing prime. I checked and checked for leaks and found none.
But GL damaged my fuel tank mount before I picked up the truck, so I removed the tank to repair the mount. Now that I had the tank off I removed the fuel pickup tube from the tank. The tube was about ready to fall out of the ninety degree fitting that screws into the tank. The solder joint was cracked, so I guess that was the leak I have been looking for.
I soldered it up, this time was silver solder and put it all back together.
Now the truck starts and runs great and does not lose its prime.
