    May be in over my head?

    Thanks for the encouragement. Quick question on “fill the fuel bowl”. How do I do this? I can’t pour fuel into the “throat” right? Is it just down the small tube extending over the throat? Thanks

    I replaced the hose to the sending unit. My next step is what you suggested with the pump. Thanks for the much needed guidance.

    Yes I blew some compressed air thru but maybe I’ll replace the rubber line to the pump.

I have a new tank and filter ready to go in this weekend. Question is, is it okay to blow compressed air...

    New Project '65 Cuda - Gonna need lots of advise

    So I pulled the plugs, they didn't look terrible. I put in new plugs, put a little marvel mystery in each cylinder. Changed the oil and filter. Put in a new battery. I sprayed some starter fluid in the carb and if fired up pretty quickly. Died even quicker. Just as soon as it burned the...
