    No fuel...likely the pump but not sure

    Yesterday I finally had the time to swap out the old Carter fuel pump with a brand new one. Started right up, easier than ever. Runs awesome. Took me 2 hours for what prolly should be a 30 minute job for a good wrench. But the results were great, and that's a major win for me. Many thanks...

    No fuel...likely the pump but not sure

    OK I checked the fuel filter and it was clean as clean can be. I disconnected the lower fuel line and fuel was leaking out as soon as it became loose. Evidently plenty of fuel line and /or pump. Seems like the pump needs a rebuild / replacement. Any other trouble shooting I should do first...

    No fuel...likely the pump but not sure

    My 67 resto mod Barracuda is not getting fuel. It wants to start with starter fluid / gas in the carb but won't run. Tomorrow I am going to make sure it has gas in the tank and check the fuel filter. IF it still won't start Id like ideas on what else to try. I suspect it is the fuel pump but...

    fuel sender gauge gasket

    Very helpful 69conv - great tips. I just ran the car a bit and the fuel is now below the sending gasket so leaking until I get the gasket. BTW I got the breather element off by pulling it to the side and it popped off. Had to put lot of pressure on it but it was the answer.

    fuel sender gauge gasket

    That why I’d like to buy the special tools - no sparks. A couple more questions: 1) can anyone tell me where to put oil in this motor? The breather element does not twist off it just spins 2) what’s with the sign? I fill it it up with premium and a full can of octane booster. Is that good enough?

    fuel sender gauge gasket

    All great info, so glad I posted. I'll re-use the old retainer. I'd also like to buy the tool to make it easier. Are they readily available at any auto parts store?

    fuel sender gauge gasket

    It looks like it could be original but its hard to say for sure. My initial thought was the gas tank it is almost certainly original and the retainer and lines all look like they belong. But the undercarriage it too clean it has been redone at some point and not a ton of use after.

    fuel sender gauge gasket

    One other question - will the sending unit slide through the ring or will I need to remove it. Thank you in advance.

    fuel sender gauge gasket

    after owning a 67 Barracuda for 8 years (which I still have) I just picked up 65 as well, very fun to drive! However after filling up the tank, I found out the gasket on the fuel gauge sending unit is leaking. It looks easy enough to replace, but I've never done it before. How do I get the...
