Just something else to add if you haven't ever changed the sending unit.
I've had the sending unit out a couple times, and well, uh, there's no sock
My tank was in pretty good shape when I got the truck, and I've replaced all the rubber lines in the system. I haven't noticed any chunks of debris in several years at this point. Just waiting on some decent weather to be able to check some things. It's been raining all week here
