    The less gas you have in the tank the lower the head pressure at the filter. Some good filters may not pass fuel, dirty or not, unless there is either sufficient suction as with a fuel pump or with sufficient head pressure as from a full tank. Motorcycles, with their gravity fed systems, run into the exact same scenario. don’t the Elgins also have an in-tank screen?
