VCCA Home Forums Thread Like Summary - 1936 Chevy Master

Gentlemen,

I have an original 36 Chevy Master with 6V 207 engine.

yesterday (it happened last week too) my car has stopped after an hour's run,? it felt like it was running out of gas and wouldn't start but after 10 min of wait the car fired up and I quickly got to a gas station, what I notice is that twice I had to gas up 7 gallons of gasoline. I did empty the glass bowl yesterday and I notice on the refill the gas came out reddish in color but once it fired up I was able to get to the gas station 5 miles away(with my fingers crossed) any ideas?

I had the carb rebuilt and I have replaced the fuel pump too.

Thank you

Ok Cheesecloth. The gas tank had a lining, within the time it broke loose due to bad gas sitting inside the tank,
When I took the Gas Tank to Commercial Radiators in AZ, I was told that the gas tank lining had to be burned off with torches before resurfacing the interior, my gas tank was like a dessert once I drain the gas, My gas filter is heavy and full of dirt sand, crazy stuff.


My apologies but English is 2nd language.
