Event Coverage Road trip on Rout 66

Thanks. my spelling and punctuation kind of get a little worse after the third beer.

 

Looks like the problem with the Cadillac was vapor lock and small fuel supply lines. the flex line was tight against the coolant outlet casting on the right head. I rerouted it to give it clearance and will add a small low pressure electric pump back by the tank.

 

Glad it was nothing major.

 

Glad to hear it's a relatively easy fix, Mike!

 

A little update on the fuel issues with the 57, turns out that the 5 to 6 PSI fuel pressure the stock pump puts out is too much for modern fuel in an old AFB carburetor, it overpowers the floats and loads up. ( Might be a specific gravity thing). The car runs flawlessly with the fuel pressure at 2 to 3 PSI that the electric pump puts out.
