Folk:
There are 2 tubes in the header tank. One is the overflow and sets the level of the fuel in the tank. The other is the pump outlet. The pump outlet *must* be higher than the overflow tube. On the early tanks the one you can see when looking into the filler neck is the pump outlet, not the overflow. If these lines are switched and you have a fire in the engine compartment that burns through the fuel lines, fuel will siphon back through the pump line and feed the fire until the level drops down to below that of the lower fitting. If the line you are looking at is truly the overflow line and it is only ¼ from the top of the tank, it is probably not plumbed correctly.
