I have just gotten almost all of the bugs out of #2904 that I bought last 
fall except when the gas tank is down to 4-5 gals the car begins to stall 
out when I corner sharply
or stop suddely. We replaced the fuel pump and soft with age intake fuel 
hose making sure the new one lies flat on the bottom of the tank .Gas filter 
looks ok but with small hole/opening.
Secondly, brake pedal goes to floor on some "panic" stops
only ,fine rest of the time.
Help,suggestions?

Michael, i think that the problem you have is the same thing i had with my 
car. the "filter that i think you are referring to is actually called a 
baffel. the important thing here is that the hole in the middle is to secure 
it to the bottom of the fuel tank. mine actually ran out of gas on me with a 
little over half a tank of fuel. what you need to do is, with half a tank of 
fuel, feel down into the tank through the fuel pump hole, and feel for a bolt 
at the bottom of the tank. there should be a 10mm nut in there too, although 
there wasnt one in my tank, that secures the baffle to the nut. what was 
happening was the baffle began to float in the fuel after the fuel was being 
used.

good luck,
