Hi Everyone!
Working on my new project - 1967 Coronet R/T - 440 / Auto - have found a fuel leak coming from the filler neck when I fill the tank up to full.
Looks like it's coming from the 'outer filling vent elbow' - where it connects to the 'intermediate filling vent tube' near the filler neck.
Is there a source for these fuel filler neck hose pieces?
Has anyone had a similar problem? How did you correct it - what did you use?
I am so glad that I found this website - it's been years since I had a MOPAR! Back in the hot rod days - about 30 some years ago - I had several B bodies - '68 Coronet R/T - '69 Road Runner - '69 GTX - '70 Road Runner and a '70 Cuda - all with either 440's or 383's. Those were the days!
Started looking for a 'hot rod' - really was looking for an old Ford coupe - but ran across this R/T instead and so I'm back in the fold!
Ran across a great thread concerning starting problems for a similar car and used that to run down the problem - apparently the starter relay - now it's firing right up as it should.
Thank you all for your support and assistance! I'll post some pictures of this beast in the near future. I sent gunslinger a note - his R/T is what mine should look like - same color - etc. His gives me something to shoot for and motivation to keep at it!
