    Truck shuts off 2 minutes while driving on driver side tank

    It takes 20 gallons to fill it and I will fill it in a few days and get back to you. I drained it yesterday evening with a siphon pump after it started stalling in 1 minute. I should put 10 gallons? Or fill up to 20 gallons?

This selector valve is about 6...

    Truck shuts off 2 minutes while driving on driver side tank

    The cap is loosely installed since there is no charcoal canister. The fuel tank did work for over 20 miles and I filled it 3/4 full and now its slightly more than a half tank and shuts off. I can smell gasoline still in the tank.

    Dumbo mirrors

    That wasn't available until the 1979 model year and you could buy one in 1978. Don't do it that is crap. These mirrors are better.

    Edelbrock 750 cfm or 600 cfm carburetor for 454 stock engine.

    It would stall when I'm driving. I start it up and it would stall when I put the transmission in drive. Gotta wait till it cools down for issues to go away.

    Edelbrock 750 cfm or 600 cfm carburetor for 454 stock engine.

    My Edelbrock 2161 intake also takes Quadrajet. It's that the Edelbrock I have has a idle up solenoid. The 750 CFM Edelbrock carburetor is malfunctioning so I wonder if I have too much CFM. When the engine is hot it would stall. See the solenoid?

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I jazzed up the interior. If you look carefully you'll see ham radios, rear view mirror with compass and thermometer as well as billet trim for the doors and dash.
