1970 EEC in-cab fuel lines question
So I swapped cabs from a 70 to a 69 cab over the weekend. The 69 cab does not have the eec fuel lines but the 70 does. I've tried removing the fuel lines they seem to go up the b-pillar and loop down according to some schematics I've seen. I released the retaining bolt and clip but I cannot get the lines down is it possible to remove them or are they spot-welded in up there somehow? There's one line on the driver side and two lines on the passenger side I believe the two lines on the passenger side is just a loop.
Thanks |

Anybody ever tried this? To remove the lines that go up the b-pillar?

Re: 1970 EEC in-cab fuel lines question
It might be easier to just use the gas tank out of the '69 and delete the vapor canister and its associated equipment. You'd need a vented cap if you do that, as the cap doesn't vent with the EEC system. Or is that not an option?

Re: 1970 EEC in-cab fuel lines question
I want to use the EEC or at least vent the system and use a sealed cap to eliminate odors. I am most likely going to just loop a 5/16 rubber fuel line up the b pillar and then vent it out in the factory location.
