My fuel gauge in my 69 with center floor console cluster seems to be working but quickly goes to full when filling and as the fuel is consumed the needle stays on full until there is about three or four gallons then it immediately drops to the half mark and continues downward as more fuel is...

Hello. I own a Gen 4 Camaro Z28 (1996 body on 1995 Z28 motor, suspension, everything... Including wiring). Which leads me to my issue, I finally got the car running and i drove it to a gas station where i preceded to fill the tank completely. But when i went to start the car again the car turned...

Hi has anyone added an Inertia Fuel Pump Shutoff Switch to automatically shut the 12v power to the fuel pump off in the event of a collision? I am thinking of adding a switch to my intank fuel pump installation and mounting the switch in the trunk but not sure if the switch needs to be mounted...

Hi Guys; I have a question for you that I haven't been able to find an answer for yet on the forum and hope someone might have some experience here. I've got a 68 Camaro with a stock tank, recently got on trade 69 tank with an in tank fuel pump to hopefully move to EFI. I can think of two ways...

Hi, new member! Car has a 350 – auto, lightly modified. Car will idle for roughly 5 minutes, then just dies, doesn't bog down, no change in rpm, just quits. Last time car was driven (about a week ago), ran and drove fine for 2 minutes, died and backfired when attempting to restart. That's...

I usually keep about a 50/50 mix of some 110 octane racing fuel and Phillips 93 octane unleaded. I have been using some of the Stabile fuel stabilizer during winter storage. I have found that after sitting for a while and gas evaporates from the carb that when started the jets seem gummed-up...

Hi everyone, Hopefully this is in the correct section. My car has been sitting in a garage with an empty tank for the past 3 years and I recently did some work to the drivetrain to get it running again. The last time I started the car (before garaging it) it started right up. Now, it seems...

Hi everyone I filled up my tank and after a 15 minute drive around the neighborhood, I noticed some gas leaking under the tank when I got back into the garage. Upon further inspection, I can see gas on the outside of the rubber fuel line (between tank and line) on the lip of the tank. Can I...

I've purchased a 00' 3.8l v6 camaro recently, and about three weeks after the purchase I've been experincing issues while trying to start my camaro or while i'm driving. Starting with the starting problems, upon turning the key, the vehicle will turn over for a second and then go right back off...

BBC (big block Chevy) parts. Performance and race parts. 2G Camaro I am redoing a bored and stroked 454 (496) and am making quite a few changes to the engine.

Luckily the wife is away for the weekend, otherwise, she'd be really upset about the fuel smell...I'm not real happy about it myself... My setup is a 68 camaro, 502 crate motor, can only run an electric fuel pump...I have an HP-125 feeding braided & steel lines to Holley 870 carb, no return...

Running a GM 2007 big block 502 with a new Holley 870 double pumper and HP-125 fuel pump in a 68 camaro. Normally I run 93 octane pump gas which of course I can only find in 10% ethanol around me, but I know where I can get 89 octane Ethanol-free gas. (it's a hike, about 11 miles away from me)...

I was driving my 88 (30 mph) the other day and suddenly the car hiccuped, kinda like it was out of fuel, but I had a 1/2 tank. The hiccup was for a split second, then I hit the gas and the hiccup went away. A few seconds later the hiccup came back, then after a few seconds more it happened. I...

Trying to get a 69 interior back to stock condition, and these gauges have to go. If you have 69 originals on any of these -- whether it's the carrier panel, or the console gauge cluster or both -- I'm interested in trades! Let's save each other some money. These gauges all work; and the...

I have what I am assuming is the original gas tank for my 68 camaro. I would like to re-use it but I have no idea where it has been. It was out of the car when I bought it. Any advise as to cleaning the inside of tank and making sure it will all work. Products? tricks of the trade? I am also...

I have read several of the post about trouble shooting gas guage problems...still can't figure mine out. I have a 69 Camaro with console gauges...everything was working fine untill a recent trip and the hand pegged out on full. The hand will drop to about 3/4 after a few seconds with the key...
