If that is not desirable or possible then give consideration to how you have assembled the bung plug. How much of the solid through tube do you have protruding past the backside of the bung plug. An excessive protrusion here will rob flexability of the internal pickup line. I like to keep these protrusions quite short on the smaller tanks for this reason.

From what I can decipher from the OP's posts, I think that you have the answer.
