Check Fuel Lines
I have a 70 W30, have owned it for at least 25 years. Someone put a in line filter and rubber hose. Never changed it as long as I have owned it. Decided to change the filter, but then decided to change the line to a metal line. Rubber was bad, but the small rubber lines from frame to fuel pump, looked a little worn, took them off, as they were real bad. I don't drive the car much, and easy to just let things go, as I got older. I'm telling anyone with rubber lines like mine, keep a eye, on them, and maybe just change them non and then. Don't need a fire.

The ones on my car were hard as rock back in the 90s. I can't imagine what they would be like 30 years later. But even back then I don't think ethanol would affect them as they were so dang hard.

I need to do that, I still have one crispy hose on top of the tank. A bud send me some GM rubber, and I want to replace the clamps back to the colored pinch clamps where they have been changed out at the same time while I’m into this.

I actually just changed the front two rubber behind the A arms on mine..both fuel and return were hard as a rock..plan to do the two short ones off the gas tank this weekend..they aren’t original and still pliable but need changed anyway..
