    Dual tank fuel guage question...

    So i have a new to me 97 f250 HD. it has dual tanks, i have never owned a truck with dual tanks before so forgive me if this is a stupid question. the fuel guage doesnt seem to change when i am running on the less full rear tank. so its almost like the guage only shows the front tanks level. i...

    whats the best way to put valve covers on

    i never use sealer on rubber unless a damaged the gasket and need to drive to the parts house for new ones. i always use sealer on cork, it makes it possible to remove the cork gaskets without a scraper.

    76. before 76, every 4x4 had drums i believe.

    whats the best way to put valve covers on

    i use rubber gaskets and no sealer. what i found helps with the floppy rubber gaskets, is to stick the bolts through the valve cover and the gasket that way they hold everything in place, this usually works because the bolt is usually ever so slightly larger than the hole.
