the piso was PISO!

Took my truck to the mechanics, guess what was wrong?!? MORE FRIKKIN WATER IN THE GAS TANK!!!! I guess the weatherstripping around the deck plate didn't cut it, plus I didn't have the gas cap locked down because it was sticking. A couple other thing were wrong too.
**Jeff take note!**
Since I had moved the gas tank from inside the bed to beneath the bed, the fuel pump was having to do more work (no gravity feed), went from a 14 psi pump to an 18 psi pump, nice and loud! It needed replacing anyways from all the water.
Plus, the timing was waaaay off, almost completely advanced so the computer was fighting to slow the truck down.
So, new pump, filter, and a 5th rebuild on the TBI, along with correct timing and corrected shift points on the tranny, the truck was running better than it ever had! I was driving around on cloud nine! Then today it started running crappy again. Then worse.
Ran it back by the mechanic just now, they hooked it up to the computer, everything checked fine except the engine was running very lean. I asked if it could be more water, mechanic #1 said no way since they completely drained the system. Mechanic #2 says "wait, isn't there foam in the cell?"
So, for the foreseeable future I'm going to have to run a lot of HEET and drain the fuel filter daily until I can get all the water out of the foam and the cell. No fun, but at least I know what's wrong!
