Title: Fuel switch
Post by: Cornfedp on April 24, 2019, 10:52:10 AM

Hello one and all.

I just picked up a project from my son, it's a 1975 factory 454 truck. The one thing that has me wondering is the switch to switch tanks. I've never seen a pull knob used to switch tanks before. Will the gauge work off of both tanks?

yes, in normal operations it should work off both tanks. i know someone covered the pull knob fuel tank switch . pretty sure they covered the operations of it, use the search button. im going to search myself but kind of need to get ready for work

Thanks for the answer and link. It just threw me and I wondered why there would be a choke knob in an odd place. Lo and behold it's for the dual tanks. New one to me.
