Just an update... I knew I had a full front fuel tank and despite it not showing anything in it, I had it switched to use the front tank. After about 10 minutes or so of driving, the engine started to die. I immediately switched to the rear tank and after a second or so, I got my power back. It got me thinking though that maybe ALL the wires are for some reason disconnected from the tank. Isn't there a low-pressure fuel pump in the tank? It seems to me that it may not have been working and when the pressure in the line started to drop, it started to stall. This also has me wondering how long the fuel has been sitting in the front tank. Should I pump it all out, drop the tank, clean it and check everything out visually and electrically? I'd be happy not to do this, but I'm starting to think that it might be best.
