Fuel Fluke

My turn Mulli, if you can't see or hear anything rattling around in the old tank it should be good. Make sure the sock on the end of the pickup is good and hook everything up running the fuel line along the frame rail then up into the mechanical pump (electric pump bypassed). Remove the rubber line that goes into the mech. pump and connect about 4 feet of clear plastic hose to it and bring the open end out to beside the front wheel. Then with the fuel tank 1/2 full of gas get a syphoning action going into a pan close to the floor. This practice will ensure the fuel line is clear and watch for bubbles in the plastic line, if there are any indicates a pinhole in the sender tubing or the rubber hoses you're using. Next another fuel pressure guage cuss we're going to make sure the original ain't lying to ya. Next plum in a pressure regulator as close to the carb as possible like the one linked and set for 6-6.5 psi. I've had Holleys float levels bounce around at pressures over 7 especially with a hot engine.
