    Cracked fuel pump

    The new pump came in this morning. Took me a while to get the new one on. The repop vapor canisters are a real PITA. The little bracket that is used to attach it to one of the fuel pump bolts is nowhere near like the original bracket. At least on the one I bought. When I originally put the car...

    Cracked fuel pump

    Two blocks away from my house, my car died. It felt like I ran out of gas, but according to the fuel gauge, I had some in the car, although not much. I walked home, jumped in my daily driver, went and got gas, and poured it in the tank. The engine would run with fuel poured down the carb, but...

    Gas tank vents

    1968 Coronet RT, 440 basically stock. On this car the tank has 4 inlets/outlets not counting the filler neck. A supply, a return, and 2 vents. One vent goes into the trunk, up the side of the wheel well, and back out. The other one connects to the frame with the open end pointed down. What are...

    pump to carb line

    The very first time I started the engine, since I bought the car, and had the engine rebuilt, was Monday. If you look, I don't have the distributor advance hose attached either. I just wanted to get it started. I fully intend to hook up the PVC valve. Thanks just the same for noticing and...

    throttle cable attachment

    I repeat; show me the post where I say I am going to completely ignore advice. Another incorrect ASSUMPTION. Incorrect ASSUMPTION number three.

    throttle cable attachment

    I have been raked over the coals, I think very unfairly, because of some assumptions, and my virus riddled computer. To start with, show me the post where I say I am going to ignore all advice. I made a couple of statements, which were made only to give more information about the original...

    pump to carb line

    Here is what I did. I bought a short piece of 3/8 line with flares and threaded nuts on each end. I cut off one end, then bent the tube. I put a small flare on the cut off end, and hooked it up with rubber tubing. When you go from a larger pipe, tube, furnace duct, etc., to a smaller one you...

    throttle cable attachment

    I don't understand the meaning, if any, of the previous post. Someone please enlighten me, good or bad.

    throttle cable attachment

    It's what was on the car when I got it. I could easily make it work, if it wasn't too long. I can't remember how it was previously attached.

    throttle cable attachment

    1968 Coronet RT, 440. I seem to be missing something. How does the cable attach to the pedal bracket? Even I know a square peg won't go into a round hole.

    pump to carb line

    1968 Coronet RT. Gas line is 3/8 from tank to engine bay. Should the small line that screws into the carb also be 3/8? It seems the line I have is smaller, so it won't attach to the carb because the fitting is too small.

    Where do these repop vapor separators get bolted to the engine?

    Gas tank lines

    Thank you very much! Mike

    Gas tank lines

    On my 68 RT there are 4 openings on the gas tank after the pickup/sender unit has been put in the tank. Two of the openings are on the tank, and two are on the pickup cap. The four lines are 2 vents (one under the car and one that goes into and out of the trunk) one supply line and one return...
