The drivetrain is complete (for now) and I am attempting to do the bodywork on my 67 myself in my garage. The problem I am having is that every weekend when I go to pull the car out of the garage I have to spray starter fluid in the carb to get it going. I can see through the clear fuel filter that there is no fuel in the line, but where is it going?? There is no leaks in the braided line from the fuel pump to the carb. There is no leak at the fuel pump either. I can go out to the car hours later and it will start up fine it is a gradual drain down. The only thing I can think of is that since the gas cap does not seal as it should there is no vacuum to keep the gas in the lines?
