    72 Fury overflow tank?

    I've got a 360 motor, all original car. Just under the radiator cap there is a small tube that goes straight down and once warm, coolant hits the ground.... I figure the right thing to do is add an overflow tank? How big? Where? Does the type of cap matter? Is it possible I have a bad cap? Thank...

    What's the best plan for this rust at the rear window?

    ...I ended up using some JB Weld and smoothing it as best I could with my dremel. Came out ok. The glass guy came out and replaced the front windshield and couldn't remove the rear glass because it had slipped down enough that he either had to risk the trim or the glass itself. He advised me to...

    1972 Fury Filler Tube Gasket... which direction please?

    I have 3 c-bodies... 72 Suburban with 400 v8, 72 Fury with 360 and 68 Newport with 383... all two-barrel. And I don't know if I will ever afford to fill any of these up for a test. So I just figure 10mpg, watch the odometer and always err on the side of caution. Anyone know what they get in one...

    1972 Fury Filler Tube Gasket... which direction please?

    RESOLVED! I did re-install the grommet and tube. Well, as the car was on an incline in the driveway I was able to spot the real culprit.... The hard line from the tank meets up with the line to the pump right under the passenger seat and that 8 inch piece of hose had a gash in it.... No idea how...

Looks like the ridge on the tube sits inside a space in the seal and I am not sure if I had that right. But I am not sure on the rubber seal if the rounded...

    Can this solve my fuel gauge issue? Ground strap.

    Well Fellas.... I had to trim back a little of the hose to get enough surface on the tank tube and I did my best to scrape some clean metal. I don't know if it worked... I have been using my odometer (assuming 10mpg - is that reasonable with a 360-2v?) and it cost me over 60 bucks to put 10...

    What's the best plan for this rust at the rear window?

    Ok... Before anything else, I used a scraper and knocked off those bubbles. Sure enough, a couple of holes.. I was able to pry the trim up. The goop is dried up pretty good.. I used a screwdriver and the scraper and then wire-wheeled with my Dremel. Shop-vac and then POR15. The trim didn't go...

    Can this solve my fuel gauge issue? Ground strap.

    When I got the car and cleaned the tank out, this piece broke and I didn't replace it... My fuel gauge doesn't work.. I ordered and received this and gonna stick it on soon but I am curious... Is this the ground for the sending unit and therefore required for the gauge to work?

    What's the best plan for this rust at the rear window?

    1972 Fury 4DR Sedan...'m loving my original paint, imperfect as it is... My concern is this rust. My initial plan was to order a windshield (got it) and I spoke with the installer. He will pull the rear window and then I figure I can do something about the rust while he replaces my front...

    1872 Fury III 360 - carb Alternatives?

    I bought a rebuilt carb at O'reilly.. love those guys but the plastic cog(?) connected to the choke is sticking and that makes it a nightmare to warm the car up... I asked for a replacement but it is no longer available to them... They are willing to get me a similar carb but I don't know what...
