[urq] I'm slowly getting up to full tank - figuring fuel rust protected bottom 1/2 of tank. (never tried - fear sender gasket isdried out.

Thanks Bill .  Next time I'll fill to 7/8th.  I figure
the top of the tank is likely to have the most
condensation/humidity rust - so I always try slowly
introduce upper portions of the tank to fuel so that I
won't dislodge to much new debris on each fuel-up.  

Once I get over these 'new car' jitters - I'm going to
be in the habit of filling the tank.
