Re: 1970 350 quadrajet questions.

That sounds like a good plan. My '72 truck w/350 QuadraJet sat from the first week of January until about the first week of August. I have to revamp the fuel gauge wiring (3 tanks) so I have no working gauge. I keep a tablet in the glovebox for date/miles/gals. When I took it to fill the first time, straight away once running, it had 100 miles on it and took 15 gallons!! I wondered if I had someone stealing gas or did I have some carb problems. No smell of fuel when near the truck. The next time I got fuel it came out right back at it's normal thrifty 10mpg
