"Hi Bill,
I think your best bet would be to replace the fuel pump with a high quality pump, just to be sure the gas flow is good to the carburetor.

I did replace the fuel filter. Haven't gotten around to fuel pump. If the car hasn't run in more than two days, I need to add the gas and it will start by itself for the next couple of days. I am currently replacing the heater core and have started ordering everything to do the whole brake system over and then I will look into the fuel pump. Does your car have a/c?

Hello Robert, I have a 1963 Dedan Deville 4 window and have recently started working on it. Appearance wise, it is an 8-8.5, Runs ok. Mechanically maybe a 7. Trans leaks, heater core is bypassed, a/c don't work, have to pour gas in carb to get it running. Saw you have the same, so I thought I would reach out. The website is great.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed
Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
