New 2023 episode! The frame work for our 1985 Chevy K-10 is being blasted and painted. We add a new fuel system and assemble it all back together. We get this K-10 chassis on a new set of wheels and tires and add our freshly painted cab.

I don't understand why people install flex fuel line especially with the junk in today's fuel. Factory installed hard line like brake lines for a reason. I have seen people go through on a build and install all new fuel system and then have fuel issues. Hard lines don't break down and introduce debris and junk into your fuel system like flex lines and hard lines won't collapse EVER unless you hit it against a rock while off roading. Some things need upgraded from the factory but this is not one of them. Even a steel braided hose is nothing compared to the hard full metal fuel lines. 🤦🏻

@michaelwhitehead4446 Жыл бұрын

Ethanol is pretty corrosive and the easiest way to use rated line is the newer rubber lines. More stations are using ethanol gasoline, and at some point all of them will. I dont like the rubber lines either since they tend to balloon or break down or rub through. When I was in school we only used flex line when transitioning from a fixed location to a mobile location, or to make a tight bend that a hardline couldnt.

@@bmstylee "plus carbs have been obsolete for several decades." First, you don't know what the word "obsolete" means. Second, even if carburetors were obsolete, what of it? "Those are the same people who would think single circuit, non power assisted drum brakes and manual steering because it's cool because it's "old school"." Anyone can notice the difference between power and manual brakes and steering when driving, but you would have no idea whether an engine was carbureted or fuel-injected simply by driving it. Furthermore, carburetors are relatively cheap, simple, and easy and cheap to repair if something goes wrong with them, which is why they're not "obsolete" as you suppose, i.e., various companies still make new ones and they are still actively developing/improving them too. Compare that to something that's actually obsolete, like, say, a Betamax VCR. No company is making those today, let alone actively developing/improving them. By the way, even when something is truly obsolete; pointing out that it's obsolete isn't a valid argument against using it. If something does what you need/want it to do, that's all that matters, obviously.
