Well she is finally here.

Lol, the hole in my trunk coincides with the giant hole in the gas tank. If i have to do all that it will be forever till i start it. I have a 500 a month budget, set by the XO.
he said use a boat tank to feed the pump, any fuel can would do though. you could even just duct tape the can to the roof of the car, syphon the fuel (with your mouth, nice) then push the pipe direct on the carb's inlet bypassing the pump. gravity will keep the carb full from there.
neil.
