Fuel issues! NEED HELP!!

Recently my truck was sitting still and idling and then just quit running. The engine is turning over but it's not getting any fuel. For as much as we were pumping the gas it should've flooded the engine. However it didn't, you couldn't smell any fuel. My guess is that this is a Fuel Pump problem? A...

I'm sorry I should have been more specific. The engine is a 69/70 290 V8 C6 engine. It's not the original 62 engine.

Power Issues

So I replaced the battery and had the Alternator tested. Everything works fine, BUT I'm still losing juice from the battery. IT KEEPS DYING. After a few short trips, I lose voltage while driving and then the truck won't start. Like I said the battery keeps dying. It basically runs off the charge it ...

So if my door tag doesn't match the numbers on the rail I'm in deep do-do, correct? Not necessarily. I just had this problem with getting an out of state Title inspected and they tried to match the Title VIN with the one on the Plate in the driver side door. Most of the time that has a statement bel...

Where's the VIN

I need to find the VIN number on my truck to compare to the title. It's a 62 UNI. There's a plate on the door with a number similar to the one on the title but there are differences in a letter and 3 numbers. It says on the plate "not for title or registration purposes" Is this still the V...

My alternator is less than 1 year old and it's 140 Amps. I still have the old alternator but i see no need to replace the new one (unless it's bad). Should I just get a new battery? The truck did sit for a few months before i received it. Or should I just hook up jumper cables and let it charge from...

Trouble on Day 2!! HELP!!!

So I was driving into work this morning when I noticed that my engine started losing power and would not respond to acceleration. I whipped out my phone to check my Voltage guage (no interior or dash panel lights yet) and the voltage was about 0. I turned off my high beams, extra set of headlights, ...

Brake Lights.....?

So my father and I noticed that I have no brake lights on my 62 UNI. I know the Governments didn't make brake lights mandatory til 1964.

So my question is: What do I need, and how do I install brake lights for my 62 UNI?

Interior Dial Panl Questions

I got my new slick!! I've notice while driving it that I hardly have any light behind the dial panel to display Speed, Tact, Gas, etc. When I activate the high beams, however, I have plenty of light with the exception of the Tactometer. Is this a wiring issue? Is it a fuse? Should I just replace the...

Speedometer and Odometer Problems

My 62 UNI does not have a working Speedometer or odometer. :(

The Tachometer still is in working order and I can drive by Tach alone, but would like to resolve these issues ASAP.

I'm new to fixing this sort of problem...Any suggestions/tips or flat out what do I need to do.
