    Need advice on how to tackle an issue on my '86 305

    Make the checks @Edelbrock stated. My guess, from your symptoms, cheap junk fuel pump installed.

    Installing a clutch and flywheel into an 81 with a Saginaw 3 speed

    You need a pilot shaft installed to hold the disc centered when you bolt up the pressure plate. Old pilot shaft (input shaft) from another "like" transmission is handy. Not having a spare pilot shaft, you can get a plastic dummy shaft to hold the disc centered. When you go to install the...

    Search for a spare 15-inch wheel or two

    So the tire size does not tell you the wheel width. You are buying wheels.The tire company will recommend what wheel widths will work with that size tire. If you want to match the wheels you have, you also need to know the width. Your truck, 6 cylinder, may not even had those wheels from the...

    K30 DRW Brake Drum Removal HELP!!!

    I disagree with her method of removing the studs. I put the nut back on flush with the top of the stud. I hold a brass mallet on the nut and stud with one hand, then hit it with at least with a 3 pound hammer, or a hammer like @Edelbrock posted. Another tip, when you go to put the axle back in...
