		  Was there any previous symptom of a fuel flow problem?



The pick up tube was completely loose. There were no previous indications 

as I

apparently had never let that tank get that low in 175 hours of operation.


	


Based upon the above here is my way of checking it:



Maintain at least 12 gallons in the opposite tank and fly the suspect tank

down to 3 gallons or less while within reasonable range of a suitable landing

area.



If there are no signs of fuel flow interruption then that tank fitting is 

currently

good.  Repeat every 100 hours.
