After the fuel level gets down below half a tank and I take a hard right hand corner, the fuel seems to shift away from the pick up tube and it starts to miss. Does the pick up need to be changed out? Or, is it just a tube in the tank? Also, the little yellow "Low Fuel" LED light in the console stays lit all the time. I am assuming the the pick needs to be replaced but would like confirmation before I drop the tank. I really dislike dropping fuel tanks!

The tank is baffled pretty well. Have you run out of gas often? Your gauge could be off and you have even less fuel than you think?
I have never run it down below 1/4 tank. At tleast according to the gauge. If that were the case, wouldn't the pick up still need to be changed out? I read somewhere about a module or something behind the dash that might also contribute to the problem?

It could be a few things, but you probably won't find the problem without dropping the tank and checking everything out. The screen may have come off, could be the pickup tube, could be the gas level float.

I am assuming then, that all of those pieces are part of the new pick up assembly? At least it looks that way in the pic from LMR.
