I have this carb spacer I picked up someplace years ago. It looks like a velocity spacer but thinner. Anybody seen or have one?

I need to get the ground strap on. When I have a chance I will get it back on lift and put it on.

All is good now. I drove the car 10 miles today and it ran beautiful.

Some more photos CHOKE?? that was first thing I removed from carb!. Any way after spending all day at Carlisle I drove back got my turkey baster injector and injected fuel into metering rod area. Got it to idle and shot pressure into my tank from air hose. Bam! 5psi and took it on a 2 mile...

I attached a photo above and it is definitely on bottom of tank. I probably need to get some fuel in carb bowls and maybe some in fuel filter then run it and hopefully it will prime. My current fuel line setup

Tank is in everything hooked up. With dry lines carb and fuel pump how much cranking do I have to do get fuel to carb and fuel pressure? Cranked it good 1 min every 20 seconds at a time and nothing. 5 gal in tank.

The 3/8 sending unit without return arrived today and looks like it will work nice. I plan to use the original lock ring. Install will have to wait until after Carlisle.

I figured it was a return. I have no plans going electric anytime soon. I have a photo in my mentioned thread above of the sock on bottom of tank.

I plan to order one also. Glad I found this thread as my 70 Duster 340 did not have this vent/return line and seems most places sell one with it.

New 3/8th sending unit arrived. Fits in tank nice. After doing a search on FABO I found a place that has a no vent/return style so I will be sending this back to summit. $10 lost in shipping I suppose and another week car being down.

I am also replacing my tank on my 1970 Duster (No Fuel Pressure after driving car.) I also decided to go 3/8 line for future motor build. I think we are limited on sending units for 3/8 lines without vent tube. Mine was listed 67-74 A-Body and the vent I assume is for 72 and up. If anyone knows...

Also here are some photos of the inside of the original tank. It dried overnight. Lots of stuff in the tank and unfortunately some of it was from when I had the car in highschool in early 90s in body shop. Some of the stoners were jealous of the car and dumped what was from dust pan into tank...

I will definitely read that thread and hope the one bought from a reputable supplier will match the original one. I have no plans to throw anything away.

Also after inpecting the fuel sender float it looked like it expanded and blew out then filled with fuel.

I ordered one online 3/8th line. $55 shipped. Also waiting on that and the 3/8 clips. I will keep that in mind about the oem lock ring. Year in supplied one with the new tank btw.

Yes I Just installed the new 3/8th stainless line about 30 min ago. Having the hoist made this job easy to do.

Update to my fuel pressure issue. I did some testing today and drove the car a short distance and had no problem today. But with the new tank and 3/8 line sitting in the box I decided to get after removing the tank. Back up on Hoist I had tank out in 30 Min. It is full of trash and pickup is...

I have thought about that also. But intermittently? This no fuel pressure issue was only after driving for a mile or so.

Thanks for that information. I received my tank and lines today from year one and will install them next month. I will make sure the vent line is blown out good that runs next to filler neck.

I will keep that in mind. What would cause a venting issue? The gas cap is a challenger style flip it is a 1970 non ecs tank.

I haven't been able to get it to drop. It only dropped to zero when out driving it. I let it idle the other day at 1000 rpm for 30 mins and drove it up and down my long driveway and back to my shop and no issues.

It was longer then 10 minutes. Fuel line has been that way for many years and never had this problem. Being that it is original tank and lines I ordered a new tank and 3/8 line. Hopefully this will resolve this issue.

It is coming apart for sure. I plan to replace the tank and lines and rubber lines. It has a carter strip mechanical pump around 2 years old. I have a regulator on it set at 5psi.

I finally got my 1970 Duster 340 back on the road after installing a rebuilt 727. I was out testing the thing and 2 times it left me with no fuel pressure after a short ride. I am thinking fuel sock. I get it back in my shop and it will idle for 30 min at 5psi the next day.
