Jason Edge commented on James jacques's blog post fuel line"Frank, per shop manual they recommend approx. 94.5 octane using todays (R+M)/2 pump rating method. For more details Click Here."
Russ Austin commented on James jacques's blog post fuel line"Frank, the compression ratio is 10:1 and that is high compression. Check the return line, and then do a fuel pump test per the book. I suspect a weak pump or a carb rebuild."

I wanted to know if anyone has ever changed the color of the dash pad. I found a black one in the junkyard but my interior is red. Has anyone ever tried dying one and what was the outcome

I have been having getting my car to start then a friend came by and hooked a wire from the coil to the battery and it fired right away. Can anyone tell me if it's the starter or some other electrical problem. Thanks

Thanks

Posted by Ian Osborne on December 29, 2018 at 11:24pm 16 Comments 0 Likes
Lately if I haven't started my '63 in four or five days it seems that the carburetor has gone dry. The starter cranks for an extended period of time and the engine doesn't come close to firing. I have resorted to pouring a little fuel into the carb to save the starter and battery. This gets it started and it runs fine. It also starts fine after sitting a short while - a couple hours or so.
