Re: [Chevelle-list] It's ALIVE!!!
If you don't want to drop the tank then syphon out all you can get then add some good premium gas and maybe some additives, I guess. The rubber fuel line at the tank is subject to rot and leak in old cars so you may want to check it or just replace it. I drove my 63 Nova for a couple years before I bought a new tank and I could not believe the crap in the old tank. I guess the filter was doing a good job otherwise it would have stopped up the carb. I live on a lake and every spring the lake is littered with boats that stop running after using last years fuel which usually includes lots of water from condensation. My $.02.

Re: [Chevelle-list] It's ALIVE!!!
Congratulations, Ron. That's a great feeling Bob is exactly right about your oil and gas. If you can have it towed the 8 miles, I would do that and then drop the tank. I have found hair brushes, bolts and other stuff in the tanks I have removed. Know anybody with AAA Plus? They can have you towed up to 100 miles for free!! If that's not an option, at least add/mix some fresh gas to your tank. Good luck.

RE: [Chevelle-list] It's Alive
Congratson two things Kent... 1. Getting your project to "running" status, and 2. Finding an understanding and patient woman!
