Needed to take some pictures for insurance purposes so threw things together for the camera today. Still need to polish up the wheels and the grill shell I had didn't turn out to be as nice as I thought it was. That kinda bites.
Oh ya, and still didn't cleanup and install the rear window, door panels, headliner, and a few other things. The more I get done it just seems the more I still need to work on. Does anybody ever actually finish one of these trucks?

Ha the answer is no, we never finish. I always seen to be going backwards finding a new way to do things better that were already done once.
I am having carb issues, thinking of swapping out my quickfuel out for a new Demon 750 I have in a box on the shelf. Giving me nothing but problems.

Picked up a vacuum gauge today. Going to use it to try and tune my carb. Trying to find a vacuum tree to hook to manifold to hook it up, didn't know there were so many different options.
Had to use some windshield silicone to stop a leak in my rear slider Window, replacement LMC gasket doesn't seal properly.
Been to every pick yard and car wrecker in 200. Kms trying to find a fuel tank vent, no luck.

You mean the plastic vent valve that slips in to the top of the tank? LMC Item #3, part # 40-1955 $12.95 US
Truck Parts and Truck Accessories
Tanks with EEC have a hole in the top center of the tank. A rubber grommet and check valve are pressed into the hole. A line goes from the check valve along the inside of the passenger side frame rail to the engine compartment where it hooks up to a charcoal canister.
Non-EEC tanks don't have this hole. The other difference is the nipple for the breather line that is located right next to the nipple for the filler hose is located 180 degrees opposite.
If you are going from an EEC tank to a non-EEC tank you must also change the fuel cap to a vented style. The EEC tanks are vented through the EEC system and use a sealed fuel cap. Non-EEC tanks vent through the fuel filler cap.
If you run a non-EEC tank and a sealed cap the minimum is you'll have fuel starvation problems, at worst a collapsed fuel tank.
