Default Re: newbee - 36 Pickup radiator mod question

David I have copper fuel line on my car and it is fine, there has been a lot of debate over the years on the rights and wrongs of this stuff on this and the old Fordbarn. I would not change it for the sake of it but make sure you have a flexible hose between the fuel pump and where it passes the clamp on the firewall. Nice truck by the way . Perhaps I'll see it around as I'm in Lower Hutt

I had a problem with my radiator frothing away. I tipped some of that radiator cleaner in the system, ran it for a while then flushed it. You should of seen all the crap that came out.
