Here is a recent discussion at the Antique Motorcycle Club of America web site. It starts with sealants, then gets into what the E85 gas may be doing to our...
Do any of you have any experience with fuel line pressure regulators? My 216 with dual Carter YF carbs starts perfectly and seems to run perfectly. However,...
Mark I have heard this before, stock carbs run better on lower fuel pump pressure. 5 to 6 lbs, at the carb. Seams that the higher pressure that some people...
I used POR15 products on the fuel tank. I followed the directions very carefully and its been fine for the last 5 years. The last time I cut the inline fuel...
Examining the spark plugs is the best way to read combustion conditions. The tailpipe soot just isn't a good indicator. Its unlikely that your fuel pump is...
Joe, my dash has an arch for the steering column, so the entire cab might have come from another truck. Got lots of parts on my truck from different years, so...
Would posting a picture of what is there help? ...bill ... might have come from another truck. Got lots of parts on my truck from different years, so who...
Sure couldn't hurt to post a picture, Bill. I'll take one tomorrow and post it in the Yahoo Photos. Tom Caperton '47-2nd Series ... in Whiteville, NC ...
I would say that you can either: a) replace the cab to frame pad to bring the cab back up in height. This will increase the column to dash distance. b) Place...
That makes a lot of sense, Jeff. I had reservations in that I assumed that Chevy would have designed things to work together. I rebuilt both carbs and if I did...
It woula appear that if the cab has slipped down, you should have a pretty good sized gap under the shaft. That should tell you something. If nate is right and...
Replacing the cab-to-frame pad seems like the best option. Since I've never done anything like that, I have no idea how go about it. Aren't there 4 bolts...
Roy, I need to get under the truck to check the cab supports. Haven't done that yet. But my guess is, the cab supports and shims were never put in, or...
Not my idea of " minimal rust " ~ I wonder why no right side pix either... Looks like a nice old bus tho' , $2,000.00 was below the asking price . -Nate ...
Tom, there are two bolts in the front that go down though the floor. In the rear, there are shackles. The shackles do have an adjustment but I don't think you...
Re: front sway bar caster shims They're very important IMO as they make the steering return to center all by itself when you let go the steering wheel after a ...
Roy ; You have _WAY_ to much fuel pressure ! it should not exceed 3 # . If you make up some thicker fuel pump to block gaskets , that's how the factory reduced...
All Please bear with me on this one since I'm sure this has been asked before but I probably wasn't paying attention. I ran into a guy at a car show today who...
Wel..tomorrow when the performance shop opens, I plan to get a gauge and a pressure reducer...just to see. Nate, I like your idea better than the regulator. I...
AMEN Jeff. lets see... I just looked out the window and ... yep-the wheels havnt fallen off. guess those flat nuts work like GM designed. imagine that.... (and...
Ken give him this address they can make any wheel that he wants. And there are other's too. Mike Been there done that. http://www.stocktonwheel.com/ 3/4 ton...
Hello, I'm new to the group but have gleaned a lot of good info in the short time I have been lurking. Recently, my wife gave me a '53 1/2 ton pickup for my...
I'm certainly the least of expert of this group yet, I could not agree with you more Jeff. Just explained to my brothers wife, the carburator works just like...
My two cents - any plumber will tell you (at least mine did) that if you raise your water pressure too high (illegally) at the regulator outside your house,...
Well, the toilet won' t blow up but the fill valve may begin to leak until the tank overfills. Just as in a carb, the fill valve (needle/seat assy in the carb)...
Hi Jim ; _WELCOME_ to our olittle group ! . It's not permitted to attach photos (or anything else) to messages but if you jack up the rear end and take a...
