Hey guys, I' ve got a bad fuel reading on my '71. Just bought her recently and getting to know this beast better. Anyway, I need thoughts on troubleshooting a fuel gauge vs. a sending unit. How is best to determine which is the issue? Also, assuming it is the sending unit, does the tank...

Thanks guys. I'll get out there and hopefully figure this out and get some pics.

Hi guys, I'm heading out to play with the new toy tomorrow in it's hidden location from my fiancé and need to do some poking around on it. I picked up a '71 H code a little while back…. (see http://www.7173mustangs.com/thread-lets-keep-this-a-secret-from-my-fiance-please) …..and I need to...

Gee whiz Wally, I hadn't thought of that. Gosh thanks.

Thanks guys. I'm definitely gonna verify TDC with the right tools tomorrow. sicndhed, thanks for the most generous offer of your time via phone. I just might take you up on that sometime. I will put you on my buddy list for now and email you in the future if that becomes needed. Most...

Ok thanks. That sounds like a high probability then for this issue. Big help tonight. I appreciate the input.

Wow! Thanks for the quick reply. SBCs? Didn't know there was rubber in there. I've never been into a timing chain or balancer area. Shouldn't be a problem for me to get in there though. What rubber and can it be replaced and fixed if that's the issue?

Ok so without giving you all the backstory of how I screwed things up or why….here it is. While this is not my Mustang engine, it is a universal engine question that should apply anywhere. It happens to be a '78 Chevy 350. 1. I have verified that the timing pointer on the balancer is...

Very cool. That's right across town from me. Who knew. I need to go see that in person now!

Thanks again for all the welcomes from around the globe! I installed a missing ground wire from the battery neg to the body today. Also checked the other production data. Can't read much other than it was built in KC and 2.75 auto trans. It was cold but tried to start until I flooded it...

VIN 1F05H136068 If I'm not mistaken the car originally had a 2V according to the vin but I may be wrong. Any confirmation or additional information based on the VIN would be appreciated. I've done a small amount of research on that. It now sports a Cleveland 351 4v automatic. No tach and...

The hood scheme kind of reminds me of a jet aircraft paint job. I'm in aviation so I like it. I know it's not original but it's still fits the theme of the car I think.

Wow! Thanks for all the welcomes everyone. Nice to be here. I hope to be around for quite awhile. Here's a couple of pics of what my new (I mean "her") new 71 looks like. Kind of funky side scoops that may need to disappear later but not bad overall.

So it turns out my fiance' is quite a car girl and is in love with Mach 1's of the '71 variety. What a gal huh? We're getting hitched in June in the skies over Albuquerque in a balloon just for fun. I've done the fancy wedding thing and we wanted to keep it simple so there ya go. I was...
