Great ingenuity!

Gil Cunningham - how much would the judges penalize us in Concours? ;-)

Subject: [Chrysler300] Fuel Pump


OK now. I don't want everybody laughing.  I had some bad luck with
electric fuel pumps, So  while  laying in bed one night thinking about a
universal way to fix the fuel problem.   I got up and went to the garage
and got into my box of old Midget and Sprint car parts.  Low and behold
I still had my old hand operated fuel pump that i used in the old days.
So I took a couple of large sheet metal screws  and attached it to the
outside of my 300F drivers door, right behind the spotlight  and then
ran a rubber hose to a fitting ( I used a tie strap to hold the hose to
the right rear antenna.to hold it up). that I brazed to my gas cap.
Now if I start running low on fuel pressure  I just put the window down
and start pumping the tank to 5 lbs of pressure.  It will last for
almost 50 miles before I have to pump it up again.  I know this is old
fashioned but it works great.   It doesn't look to bad when I polish the
Knob.
