    Gas tank install

    I got the opportunity to do the fun part of this job a second time! I am not sure what caused the grommet to split up the middle at the gas station one night but it made an impressive mess. My new grommet hails from Detroit Muscle Technologies based on some earlier posts in here and I used...

    Gas tank install

    It took 12.3 more gallons before sloshing out the tube. (It s'posed to be 18 ???) No leaks! & my aftermarket gauge says full too! I also used to get a little exhaust in the car with the window cracked open. The new trunk seal must be keeping that out too! Id prolly do this in the winter if Id...

    Well what I read suggested silver with acid core flux and I know that you need the rosin core stuff for electric work

    Sending unit ground strap on stainless

    I bought the stainless one from classic. It appears you have to use silver solder on stainless and I don't have any idea how conducive that is....

    Sending unit ground strap on stainless

    Im finally getting a new tank and lines swapped over to all stainless. I just bent the new sender to match the old one and tested both for resistance. This doesn't work if the meter isn't grounded. Then I remembered not seeing a ground on the old tank when I removed it. The insulator pad was...
