Re: Unhappy fuel system

My 72 C10 with EEC has tank rust problems too.

I just bought a tank off of rock auto. nice Canadian made but with a few sharp edges. Spectra premium.

I would have bought the Classic Parts tank too but I hear good things about the Spectra tank and did not know where the Classic industry tank came from. The Spectra tank was a sure thing and the difference in price was not worth the uncertainty.

Bought a sender from Classic parts and it came with an o ring seal

also from classic parts I got the a sender retaining lock ring

extra lock ring came with the canadian tank too

have not got around to installing them yet but total cost so far is about 300.00

will be rebuilding the carb again too for about 30 bucks

gues I will blow out the lines with compressed air

fuel pump is new already as are the rubber lines

I hope this puts an end to my fuel problems because it has made my truck very unreliable and me very unhappy
