    Ford 94 carb and vapor lock

    Trying to track down a vacuum leak, would a small tear in float bowl gasket cause no flow? I can force air into tank fill and gas flows good into a jar, hook up to sediment bowl and nothing.

    1936 Model 68 fuel tank

    So no problem using my filler neck if everything seems fine? I saw one comment about needing the sleeve because of fitment, I believe it was the Plastic tank from Tanks that had the issue for one guy.

    Thanks, where exactly did you rest the end of the coil? Will it find its sweet spot on its own? Like.. hey I didn’t pop out! This is it!

    1936 driver side door latch

    The tabs are good, marked in red, the blue area is what I was struggling with. By this picture my spring must have been upside down. The little rubber piece at the striker was also gone, I made one. I’m going to try it again. The door worked perfect before, I would show it to interested parties...
