Hello all, new here and new 59 Thunderbird owner.
Trying to get her back on the road I've run into two (many... those later) problems. Spent all my money on getting her, so I'm hoping to start cheap
First my fuel pump works great but spits out fuel to the side also, I've been looking for a rebuild kit but have only seen the diaphragm, would this potentially be all I need? Can I even rebuild it?
Second, the fuel tank seems great but I get no gas coming out of it, I know there is plenty in there and it isn't the fuel line going to the pump. Is there a filter/screen or anything inside the tank that could be clogged? Could I gently 'rod' through the hole for the fuel line? I don't want to mess anything up and end up getting a new tank so any advice would be great.
Thanks all!
