Why two holes in the cab floor?
Pulled the plug in this cab floor today. Got me thinking that I've seen a lot of trucks with this plug, but never seen the 2nd hole used for anything.
Why did they put in the second hole? I searched but didn't find anything... |

I think I remember them for cab alignment when welding.

That second hole comes in handy when converting to EFI, as you can use it for the return line.

Mine only has one hole. Is it certain years?

One is for fuel line(s) the other for the vent line, which many have since been removed

Re: Why two holes in the cab floor?
My 72 K10 built in Freemont, California and sold in Nevada to a California resident with the smog equipment has those two holes. Been some time since I removed the stock tank and installed the rear tank, but I seem to remember a line going though that hole. A 1" plug takes care of both.
