The reason I brought up the fuel tank is over the years Ive owned a few chevy trucks, three of them all different carbs and engines these three including 69 Im working on had this problem,1967 GMC V-6,51 chevy mild 235. Upon talking to an old timer that was in charge of the state of Mass. highway dept. trucks in the late 50s early 60s his fix for this was a solenoid type valve that shut off fuel when parked.???? I dont know. FWIW the co. I buy carb. rebuild kits informed me because of the fuel,and how much ethanol Im getting in my area I may not cure this. My concern with a thicker insulator, is signal to boosters. Thank everyone for your responses.
