    @guthriesmith. Is that one of the NOS diaphragms? If it is definitely try a newer one. They are still made but, in some areas, hard to come by.

    Well, it was leaking when I got it. So, I swapped for a “new” but old one that was still in a box. It was just some aftermarket replacement. Then, I tried a used older one. I think I just need to try an actual “new” new one. My local parts store can get me one Monday.

    Definitely the way to go as far as reliability.

    Nice is an understatement it reminds me of a ‘51 Ford some guy just picked up;)

    Well, seems I will have some rear window trim and a fuel pump tomorrow sometime thanks to @lostn51 :) and my son who is picking them up on his way home. And, if anyone sees a nice red 66 Galaxie with a white top on a trailer headed west on I-40, that is my youngest son and his friends.

    LOLOL!!! I had to go back and look at the pic! I didn’t even notice that. Seems he has been riding back there a little too long! Wish the Galaxie was a year older so I could post the pic now!

    I can likely post the dead guy?
