    Fuel sender repair

    Alright! That's great! Thanks for letting us know. Yeah, I had to get an original lock ring from someone on this site to get my tank to seal. The new ones are way too thin and flimsy to seal.

    Fuel sender repair

    I hope it works for you. Half a gas gauge is better than no gas gauge. I been there. Didn't like it.

    Fuel sender repair

    I am coming in in the middle of a conversation. But, I had to scrape the paint/rust/stuff off the tank where it meets the strap and did the same for the strap. Once I did this, my gauge works great now, every time. The windings on the sending unit do not conform to mfg specs, so my gas gauge...

    Timing by Vacuum Reading?

    Hey, he's a good buddy. I don't think the vacc timing is a good idea, although the other things may be a mistake, he's not. Other than that, the engine starts perfectly, I'm running 13.5-14 afr, with slightly higher and lower temporary movements, but it is staying pretty much between 13.5-14...

    Timing by Vacuum Reading?

    I have a rather modified engine, high compression, large cam, 408, and I need to know what the best way to time it is because there is no standard measurement for it. I can start with the recommended timing, which is 10-16 Initial, idle in other words, and ramp it up to 34-46 at approx 3000 rpm...

    Fuel pump noise

    I'm thinkin' mine might be from a plugged rear fuel filter. I just replaced it, can't start it yet, the tank is out. But I should have the tank replaced Tuesday, waiting on a sending unit lock ring. I'll post the results. It was making a noise like some weird pumping noise. Not a mechanical tap...

    Fuel pump noise

    Did you find the noise?? I suspect my FP is making noise too. It is a Holley fuel pump. Is it a pumping noise you heard or a mechanical tap or something?
