Replaced fuel line from tank to filter solved cranking without starting issue. Someone then told me to add a quart of automatic transmission fluid to full tank of gas. Is this helpful or will it cause more problems. I appreciate your opinions. Zig

Thank you

I will be replacing the fuel pump. I am not a mechanic and was wondering if I should tackle this myself. I need to replace the base gasket if I'm not mistaken as well. Any imput is appreciated. Mark

Thank you,,,,will be checking floats and fuel pump

Thank you very much

Yes, there was a post regarding this issue some time ago with a pic of someone who fixed theirs by placing a 6 or 7 inch long ground wire from the top of the sending unit to one of the screws on the cover above it. Hope this makes sense.

My fuel gauge is shot. I tried to fix problem by placing ground wire from sending unit to frame but no change. What parts do I need to purchase. Thank you for your responses. Zig

The carbs have been rebuilt and sync'd, a new gear reduction starter placed and solid state ignition, but she takes a while to start.....could it be the sending unit or fuel pump.

Dumb question, but is there a way to adjust gas cable to adjust idle or do I have to adjust the carbs. If carb adjustment is needed, what screw needs adjusting. If I could tighten the gas cable a hair, it would idle perfect. Thank you. Zig

Three months ago I had my carbs rebuilt by a reputable mechanic in the area, He told me that I had almost 5 gallons of water in my gas tank and he had no idea how the truck was even running....Just figured I'd let everyone know. Use that drain plug and check it out. Zig

Will either of these two oil filters fit on the pinz (1974). I've always used a Wix but when you cut into these filters, you can really see a difference in the quality of the two. Thank you.

I believe they are the WA 0491 model, double check with Jim. Hope this helps Zig

Contact Jim at 918 440 8636, he can give you the info needed. They look to have the same bs as my previous Promag wheels.

Cost was like 460.00 per wheel and the tires are 285/75.
