This is a, um, baffling problem. For some time been hearing something loose in the rear of our 740GLE on stopping and accelerating. Checked all susp. parts, all ok. Combined with that, for some time, when gas is 1/4 tank or so, a right turn causes the engine to stumble/lose power until turn completed. Had local garage-of-trust check it. They pulled the tank pump that was replaced by them a couple years ago. Tank pump & pick-up ok. Found the plastic fuel tank baffle had broken lose from the tank. The noise and the stumble cause found. Best source for a replacement tank? Know it won't be cheap or easy to R/R. Not crazy about a salvage unit. Options?
