  1. The year of the truck isn't the same year as the motor. Don't know what year the motor is out of.
  2. Ok so does an anyone happen to know the part number for the spacer ? For an l20B. Thanks
  3. Sorry bout my friend in advance haha
  4. So had some time to work on her today and decide which route to go with the fuel system. Fortunately my 2 day old fuel pump had already starting leaking so I ditched it went back to the Manuel like you guys suggested. And she ran great all the way through 4th. So even the issue the previous owner was having is gone now =) Brakes deffentialy need some living tho so that'll be on the list tomorrow as well as registering it so I can take her on the road. I'm using the mechanical pump without a spacer any info on if that will cause any issues?
  5. Yea the only thing is if I switch back to the manual fuel pump is I don't have the spacer that I need. I still need to cut out the floor boards and put in some new sheet mmetal so I've got some time to get her running good. Any idea how of thick of metal I should use for the floor boards ?
  6. One of the diaphragm in the carb actually had a sliver of metal from a screw I think stuck which was holding the diaphragm open. I think it was the accelerator pump. Honestly don't know a whole lot about carbs but I figured either way it would need to be gone through. Gonna borrow a friend's pressure regulator see if that helps too if not I'll just switch back to Manuel like you guys recomended. Thanks for the help. Also I've got a few extra parts including but not limited to a gauge cluster and grill if anyone's interested in trading
  7. Yea I actually got it running the other night for a few seconds. Disconnected the fuel line because it just kept flooding really bad. So let her air out and just ran her with the fuel left in the carb and she ran great while the fuel lasted. Took carb apart and I'm pretty sure I found the issue. So just waiting a the rebuild kit now. And when I got it there was a Manuel pump installed and the old electric was still hooked up not sure what was going on so took off both and installed new electric pump. Gonna throw on a pressure regulator just to be safe tho Carb did have a pretty good amount of dirt tho so ill probably be cleaning out the tank soon too
  8. Sorry for the multiple posts. Phones copy and paste wasn't wanting to let me paste it all in one
  9. Sorry guys forgot to take pics but I did get her running for a few seconds for the first time in a year tho. Carb was bad and was just flooding her. So time to rebuild it or switch to a single side draft. I'll post engine and interior pics tomorow
