Everybody carries them.  Just tell them you need a fuel tank fuel tap and the 
metal strain sock for 64 VW, or make up whatever year you want that has a fuel 
guage.

you got like a part number or something for htat, my guy at roy rogers can't 
get anything like that. i'll look on cip1 too, but so far no luck finding what 
you speak of.


and as far as running out of gas denis, i always carry a can, never have had a 
bus with working gauge so i always carry a can

Very easy.  Just install the later (62 on) fuel tap instead of the reserve 
tap.  Much cheaper than a reserve tap also.  Put in a new one with new gasket 
and the metal strainer sock..

pulled my tank last week, it's very clean in there, just a black powder from 
old gas, so i flushed it out, and from what i see, no rust inside, which is 
amazing since it's been parked since 1982.
 
question. Fuel Reserve, i know it's not a wonderful idea, but is there a way to 
get rid of that? just run some sort of small nipple fitting on the bottom of 
the tank and eliminate the reserve? i've always carried a can of gas with me 
everywhere i go, and know the rule of "every 200 miles fill up" how can i get 
rid of this thing?
