    Fuel filter vapor lock

    I think it's a vapor lock after the pump. So the fuel goes to the return line instead of up to the carb. I put 2 new pumps on it and they both did the same thing

    Fuel filter vapor lock

    The truck had a clear plastic fuel filter I replaced it with a glass one so I can still see the flow. The truck will not restart when it dies and does not have any fuel in the filter.

    Should I cut more coil?

    In the spring it's gonna get another 350 put in. The current one is with out and has low oil pressure after that was planning on a set of 20's so I'd like it to sit level or slight rake forward

    Should I cut more coil?

    The truck had 56in springs on it in the 52in hanger location(i moved the hanger to the correct location) and figured it might give me a slightly smoother ride. Might still have use it as an actual truck from time to time. I still have to clean the hitch up and paint it
