I'll remain in suspense until it is published. Certainly not going to spend 58 minutes listening to a podcast in the hope of learning why the engine stopped. I would read a one page summary if there was one.

The fuel pickups should be fitted with a very coarse wire screen:

No, you can't see the strainers from the filler neck without a mirror or scope. I have never seen mine in 20 years of ownership but I will look next time the tanks are low.
