I will check where it is resting once I verify that the voltage is where it should be.

I get a feeling if I add a few more gallons and don't see a change and drop the tank and remove the pump and take a good look I will be finding something stupidly obvious that should have been checked previously.

Also, been learning a lot from everyone here (and elsewhere) on how interrelated the system must be to function properly. Definitely a lot more complex than gravity feed carbs on 2 wheeled bikes!

Okay. Dropped the tank, saw nothing funny floating around in there, did a pressure test it was about 15 psi. Got one more pump (this time a Spectra Premium) and it fired right up. Drove it home and all is well. Thanks for the help from everyone.
