    JB weld may work. Gas will not effect it., but I agree with Nissanman. The factory soldered the connections. The pipes are soldered to a plate that is spot welded and soldered sealed to the tank. I would not heat the whole plate as you will unseal the plate to the tank. I think you would be better to solder the the tubes back. Either way you should pressure test the tank with about 5 psi and check for leaks. You may have to have a local shop do this. Do not apply more air pressure as you can hurt the tank. Welding wire or a coat hanger should dislodge any rust/debris. I would turn the tank up side down and have the drivers side (shallow end) up higher so when the debris comes out it will fall into the tall part of the tank; on the other side of the baffle, were you can vacuum it out thru the sending unit opening or the filler neck. You may need to soak it with WD40 for a while.

    Reddog, look at the Hybird Z >techinical>Engine Components>Ignition and Electrical, " How to make autometer fuel gauge read properly" back on 11-17-2007 smoorenc gives a detailed post on this problem. I have not tried it yet but it makes sense. I am also looking at using Autometer or VDO gauges, but am still working on sheetmetal and rust repair.

    My 72 had this problem, I found two things wrong. The wire coming in to the points was bad and it would idle, and run ok but it would shut off around 45 mph. Also I found both fuel screens in the inlet side of the carbs had a lot of trash in them. I removed them and installed inline filters instead, motor would pull 7000 rpm no problem after that. Good luck

    25 psi is too much. 280 Master is correct with 13psi. If it leaks at 10, better think about using another one.
  15. Double check your bottles and be sure what you put in. It sounds like you have the wrong fluid, redline has many different gear oils in a 75/90. I am looking at using Redline MTL in mine but have not as of yet, I have run MTL in a 82 5 speed maxima and a 85 5 speed FWD maxima with great results. You should call Redline and ask them.
