<VV> Gauge Accuracy Re: Update on stainless steel fuel sendingunit

[Mel Francis]

 It made sense to me, Bob.

 Frank was obviously concerned about water at the bottom of the tank being
 picked up, as the fuel level got to the bottom, so he dumped the gas, 
probably by
 siphon.

Then he added the two gallons that he had brought with him and the car
 started right up.
