Do you know what the issue is? Just curious.
 
This was the first time in known memory that Memphis engine companies drafted water from a portable tank to fight a working fire.
 
As a former owner of a Memphis 1950 Mack 1250 gpm sedan pumper (Engine 4) with a Hall-Scott engine, no muffler, and a shop built deck gun, it sounds to me like they need to bring back the squirrel-tail hard suction.
