65 Barracuda fuel line relocation
Well fix one, find another. I re-located that line on the carb and it looks much better now up front. In further look under the car I found another problem at the rear end. :BangHead:
With the add of the electric fuel pump and sender, there's a vent line that comes off the sender (1/4" nipple on sender). That line is run pretty sloppily over the rear end, around the rear shock, and up to the filler vent tube next to the filler neck. In my '65 service manual, this was just a "free air" vent that connected to nothing and didn't attach to that sender return in '65. (no electric fuel pump originally, obviously). The picture shows the original vent tube that is now attached to the electric pump sender at the tank inlet, for reference.
My question is - is that right? Should that vent line from the sender attach to that vent tube next to the filler neck? And if so, does it matter how it's run? I think the previous owner put it into the hook on the rear end (which is for the hard brake line only, not an additional rubber fuel hose). There is a small fuel leak there in that line because of that so i am going to replace it and just looking for any tips/info...
