[DML] Fuel pump growling

[deloreanernst@xxxxxxx]

I have a motto at work... "New mistakes are being invented all the time,  and 
old ones rediscovered."
Here's a new one: My fuel pump was sounding starved just in the last few  
days. Half a tankful cured the problem, but that's not a good enough answer,  
especially since the pump and hose is only 2 years old. No, I don't have a  
spring arrangement as David suggests inside the pickup hose. Or John H's  
arrangement. Pulled the pump to check the hose and discovered that the guy who  
attached the pickup hose- no, it wasn't me- neglected to tighten the clamp. That  
sure ain't helpin' any! Tightened the clamp quite a bit, now we'll see how it  
works.
