virgin need a new fuel tank - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

Nothing wrong with that quote.

Saying "fuel pick-up might become an issue" is not the same thing as "there might be no fuel to pick up". The former says there IS fuel, it just isn't usable (shades of BAR 2005). The latter says there isn't any fuel full-stop.

Since the problem appears to be the latter rather than the former, then there IS something seriously circumlocutious about the quote...
