Re: Over 25 Years Later, Finally My 71 C-10 Truck Build
We've had nice weather the past couple days, so I was trying to diagnose a problem with the engine. It was starving for gas. Turns out the filter was clogged. With rust. The gas tank got some moisture in it years ago from sitting and I've been fighting it ever since. I think the boot on the pick up tube in the tank may be shot, based on the amount of crap coming through to the filter. Anyway, that tank will be replaced with a blazer style one soon enough.
On a side note, A couple I know had moved out of town. The guy was a mechanic by training, but not occupation. Anyway, he had a ferd 351M and C6 tranny sitting in the garage they vacated and offered it to me just to get it out. I have no use for it, but if I can sell it or trade it for something I need, it's well worth my time. I might be getting a ferd 9" axle for it. We'll see.
