Hello,
I'm pretty new here and have a few questions. I have an 86 GMC 1500 short bed that had dual tanks. Previous owner installed a Holley projection system that is a mess, and I plan on swapping over to a carb set up. My truck has dual tanks with a switch on the dash to toggle between them. There are dual electric fuel pumps mounted right near the tanks which the switch also toggles. I hope to remove the elec pumps, add a mechanical and plumb to the carb. As this truck is not driven regularly, I may remove one of the tanks, or at least cap it. On a single tank truck, which side is the tank on, or are they in a different location all together. If I remove the tank, I want to make sure that I remove the secondary as someone else may be able to use it. Is there any other wiring or issues i should be aware of that I perhaps haven't taken in to consideration?
Thanks
John
