Installing A Fuel System In 1969 Mustang Boss 429 ( How To)

[@georgecartwright5184]

I know this was vary simple for a lot of most car people, but it is nice to see someone taking the time to do the job with care and planning and no power tools.

[@philtucker1224]

Fair comments about using traditional manual hand tools, I still have some of my Father’s and also one or two of my grandfather’s that I intend to pass on to my kids. I have a son and a daughter and five grandchildren so far but the most adept of all of them is my daughter. Live long and prosper 🖖

Gonna be a beautiful car !!!

[@esquire9445]

Is it a good idea to spray a sealer on that gas tank so it doesn’t oxidize?

[@roberthirshfield3571]

Love your perfection in all u do. Love the videos.

[@classics289]

Great video! Years ago alot of the reproduction retaining rings that were available for the sending units were not made right. They were the wrong shap and size and could be made to work but were pure garbage. I'm guessing that problem has been resolved by now? If you are doing this job definately scrutinize your new ring compared to your original.

When I installed my gas sending unit I cut a 45 degree angle on (4) 2x4's. Then I cut the 2x4's to length, front two to one length and the rear two to another length so that when I attached each 2x4 at the 45 degree angled surface to the corner of the gas tank they became (4) legs. At this point the gas tank was sitting on the (4) legs and the opening for the sending unit was parallel to the table which made installing the sending unit a piece of cake, no grease needed. I did it that way after installing it with the tank in the car and I had a leak. 64 1/2 - 68 Mustang have a 16 gallon tank, 69 has a 20 gallon tank and 70 - 73 have a 22 gallon tank.

[@philtucker1224]

Wow! (Big tanks) if you brimmed one of those over here in the U.K. now it would cost almost 300 bucks!

[@nicpary7078]

Very I formative, never tried this from start to finish.

[@hughobrien4139]

The nicest.

[@brokendreamsgarage]

just think someone from the factory did this all day

[@dominiccase6846]

So Ben now that I am at home full time I have two 429s a 1969 to 1970. So instead of finding 10 to 12 junkyard 69 or 70 boss frame and bodies, do you have a replica company you'd recommend that I can go direct with some dynacorn only sells to dealers.

[@philtucker1224]

Ben does anyone manufacture (good) carbon fibre panels for these old Mustangs? What’s your opinion?

[@g89stang]

Hello Ben. Love the channel. I was wondering, why do you use a brass float instead of a plastic one? I have a 57 Thunderbird and the ethanol in today's fuel cause my brass float to fail and sink to the bottom of the tank resulting in a reading of "E" at all times. I put a plastic float in and fuel gauge reads perfect now.

[@petersonrestorations]

Absolutely should only use ethanol free gasoline in anything carbureted. Ethanol gas will eat up a carburetor as well if it hasn’t already

[@g89stang]

@@petersonrestorations I'll have to start looking, but don't think I have ethanol free in my area. Thanks for the reply my friend!

[@saxonstangsetc3201]

I know you said the owner is not going for a concours restoration, but I am surprised that the paint inside the trunk is not glossy. Is that due to using basecoat / clear paint system?

[@petersonrestorations]

Not sure on that, that was the painters decision. I know it’s wrong but I don’t think they knew that

[@fw1421]

Do you put Dynamat in your restorations to quiet them up from road noise?

[@philtucker1224]

Always.

[@fmswatchdo2373]

Need some kind of locking cap? Jealous poopbox camaro and mopar owners might try to sabotage this beauty.

[@philtucker1224]

Ha ha - too many gangster car films buddy 😁

[@elijahhall4997]

Wow again to short

[@philtucker1224]

Try saving one and then watch two together? It will make them seem longer? 😁
