The pickup tube inside my fuel tank cracked on my 1994 Proline 23ft center
console. The repair shop was able to connect the fuel line to a "second
pickup" on the tank. This saved the work of cutting the tank out of the
deck.

I am wondering if this second connection is really intended to be a pickup
or is it there for some other reason ( like being able to clean out the
contents of the tank bottom )? If that is the case is this second
connection going to give me a problem?
