    Rhino linning the rear interior.. Any tips...

    I'm thinking of just doing that. I was looking at their site yesterday. Hopefully that dynamat helps keeping the cold out. I know they talk about heat. Which will be good if I do move up to Idaho. They have warm summers too. So dynamat and carpet is what you guys are thinking?

    Cool.. Sounds pretty straight forward. Prepping just consist of roughing up the surface and cleaning it up from what I've read. Thanks 8T6K5.

    Rhino linning the rear interior.. Any tips...

    Starting different when warm??

    Thanks you guys. I'm new and trying to learn with this carb motor. I'm running a carter electric fuel pump. Napa sells it and said it puts out 7psi. So I'm running two inline fuel filters because I was told to run my engine at 6psi. No regulator, I figured the 2 filter would bring the psi some.

    Starting different when warm??

    Okay let me rephrase that. It starts quick but doesn't fire up. So the starter grinds the flywheel because I have the key turned still.. Sorry Bucket hope that's better. When I expect it start like that I give it a little gas and revs right up.. Is that better?

    Electric fuel pump location?

    Ok well a month later and I finally made time for my fuel pump relocation. From the engine bay on the fender well to being mounted in front of the tank with a extra fuel filter in between the pump and tank. I kept the filter before the carb in the engine bay. I went to Napa and found out my pump...

    Electric fuel pump location?

    Well I finally got a chance to take a try at moving the fuel pump from the engine bay to under the truck but ran into something. I have to lines from the gas tank. Most likely one feeds and one is a return. Which is which? I couldn't quite move very good due to me pulling my hamstring days...

    Electric fuel pump location?

    Thanks for the replies HotRodPC and AJI. I will do that but it probably wont be until I get back from my regular run down to Texas and back up to Montana, before I can get back home.

    Electric fuel pump location?

    Fuel Pump Its mounted in the engine bay on the passenger side fender well. It just feels like it does have much power when its at highway speeds. I've adjusted the carb by turning the screws in all the way and out all the way. Then back half way in. Is that correct? Or what kind of tune are...
