    Frank, I was just going to amend my post stating,
    "Never mind, I’m an idiot", then I see your post
    stating what it took me half an hour to learn, lol.
    Most of my collection is "pre 1960", and most have
    integral tanks!
    I had the pickup tube in a can of gas, and put
    suction to the outlet fitting, via my sand blaster gun……
    nothing……… then I got the bright idea to push
    in one of those pins!
    I thought they were just spring loaded pins to keep
    tension on the hose connector.

    Prepare to be boarded!
