    Fuel gauge stuck on full

    That could make sense because I bumped the tank a few times with the screwdriver when I was getting the hoses off. How can I find my ground wire though? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    What could this noise be?

    The shop did tell me the shocks could use a replacement, but why do you think that be causing the noise? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Fuel tank leak

    By the way I just wanted to say thanks for everyone's help. This website is an awesome resource and I'm learning a lot about fixing my truck. It's really nice to have all this support for stuff like this that isn't easy to just look up on YouTube. It feels great to know I just fixed that leak on...

    Fuel gauge stuck on full

    So I just fixed my fuel tank leak and replaced the filler hose. Just when I thought I fixed it and left to get gas, I noticed the gauge was stuck on full. No more leak, but now I can't tell how much gas I have. It had a half a tank before the gauge stopped working. I am not sure if this had...

    Fuel tank leak

    So I'm finished replacing the filler hose. I replaced every clamp and kept the old vent hose because it wasn't too bad. Right after i finished, I got in the truck to get gas and noticed the gauge was stuck on full. I know it isn't full because it had a half tank. How do I diagnose this? Is this...

    Where to purchase filler hose?

    Well it just sucks that people think it's alright to fuck with mail. It's a federal offense. I would've been fine if it wasn't for this guy. I did end up getting the part back. But the shipping technically only took 2 days. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    What could this noise be?

    It isn't only when stepping on brakes. How do I check if they put stick on weights? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    What could this noise be?

    Well I had my local shop check the brakes and I assume that requires them to remove the wheels. Unless they didn't then that could be my issue. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Where to purchase filler hose?

    Wouldn't ya know I ordered it from filler neck supply and they have 1-3 day shipping for 7.65 extra. It was meant to come today (took 2 days), but the postal service delivered it to the wrong address and the guy that lives there claims to not have it. Our postal service for my area is fucking up...

    What could this noise be?

    So I noticed this noise after getting my new tires. It was not there when I test drove the truck originally, but that could just be because it's an on and off issue. Sometimes it just completely dissapears and other days it is there again. It almost sounds like it is inside the cab but I doubt...

    AC system help

    Well my clutch is bad as well and has no belt. Is that why my defog won't work? Nothing happens when I touch the climate control button. Maybe my blower fan is just disconnected? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    AC system help

    Well I have a question because I'm confused about how this works. If I want just the defrost and don't care about AC is that possible? I don't care if I'm hot, I just need to be able to see out the windshield if it's winter time or if it's raining and the windscreen fogs. How did old cars defog...

    Where to purchase filler hose?

    I think the I.D on that is 1-5/16". Will that work if the original was 1-3/8"? It's super close but it might not be safe/go on right. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Fuel tank leak

    I tried this and it worked! Great idea! Made it loads easier. Now my biggest problem is finding a filler hose to replace it. I found a new vent hose, but I now need to find where to buy a 1-3/8" hose with a 90 degree bend. Preferably not lmc because I'd like to have this thing driving within the...

    Where to purchase filler hose?

    I just noticed something though. Is the 78 filler hose bigger on one end than the other? I think the tank end is 1-3/8" and the neck end is 1-3/4". It looks like it gets larger but that could just be because it bulged. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Is it for a 78 by chance?

    Where to purchase filler hose?

    I guess to be more specific I didn't want to buy it online. I'm going to need my truck driving within the next few days and I don't think I can wait on shipping from a website. Is there an auto parts store that would have it? I apologize for not being more clear.

    Fuel tank leak

    I thought of that and sliced it, but for some reason it is extremely hard where it attaches to the metal underneath. I'm wondering if there is a hose clip that rotted into the hose and I can't see it from the side I'm looking at. I tried slicing it, and the scratches it made looked like metal...

    Where to purchase filler hose?

    So I'm gonna need to replace the filler hose on my truck. I could order the hose on LMC, but I know the shipping will take forever and I kinda just wanna get driving. I think for the 78 fleetside the I.D was 1-3/8". I don't know how long but I doubt it's any more than two feet. Anyone know where...

    Fuel tank leak

    So I just took off the hose. At least one end of it. I think the hose was my issue. It looks like it has some cracks in it and it bulged around where the neck attaches to it. The neck itself looks totally fine. Now my issue is that I can't get the other side of the hose off. It almost feels like...
