Another mechanic screws me over.....

I really don't have a sign on my shirt that says "Screw Me", but considering all these so called mechanics I have had work on my truck, you would sure think I did.

I had a guy move the gas tank from behind the seat and install a 53 Chevy sedan tank up under the bed. It didn't take all that long to have it done and this guy came highly recommended from several others who had work done.

After I drove the truck around a few days and decided to top off the tank I pulled up to the pump and started to fill the tank. The nozzle kept popping off and the smell of raw gas was pretty evident.

After about 5 minutes and only getting around 3 gallons of fuel in the tank I decided something wasn't right, and upon further investigation I found out what the problem was.

Take a look for yourself.
