[Tigers] Gas tank question

[Ron Fraser]

Andy
	Did you check the advance curve with you ignition tune up?   I
worked on an early Mustang and the distributor advance was hanging up
causing poor idle adjustment and stalling.

	I don't know that there is a best order for pulling the tanks and
tubes.  Once you have the 4 rubber connectors loose the curved tubes should
come right out.

	I would pump the tanks down with a clear view filter before the pump
to see if it collects any particles.  If there are no particles or few your
probably OK.    I would think most of the crude would collect in the main
cross tube.  I know I have some crude in my cross tube because I have a
filter before my fuel pump and I see some crude in there.   I have the cross
tube on my to do list also.

Hey, guys:

I'm still having a stalling problem with my Tiger.  I've performed a
complete ignition tune up and have been through the Holley 465 carb.  I've
also replaced the fuel pump as well.  In short, I'm now down to
investigating further into the fuel system, which means checking for trash
in the tanks. It's been a loooooooong time since I've pulled the gas tanks
out of a Tiger and, frankly, I can't remember the proper order in which the
apparatus is removed.  Do the actual tanks come out first, followed by the
curved pieces of pipe and then the balance tube, OR does the balance tube
come out first, followed by the curved pipes and then the tanks?  Can
someone help jog my failing memory???

Thanks,
Andy Walker
