My fuel pump went out on a Blazer that I had once. I used all the hose off the windshield washers to siphon gas from the tank into a milk jug. Then hooked the hose to a funnel that I wedged between the door panel and the window crank. Ran the other end to the carb. Then I had to pour gas into the funnel as I drove.
I had just finished siphoning gas from the tank for the third time. When a state patrol stopped to see if I needed any help. He looked at my set up, and said it looked like I had it under control. He followed me up to the top of the pass. Even stopped and waited for me to siphon a fourth gallon from the tank. Just as I aproached the crest, I ran out of gas to pour into the funnel. I put my hands in the air as the blazer started to chug. That is when the officer nudged up against my bumper with the push bar on his cruiser. He pushed me over the top. Then did a U turn to go help another stranded motorist.
