:)Today I spent the better part of the day working on my '37 Terrapplane. Decided to drain the fuel tank and see what came out. Before I could proceed I had to grind down an 3/8 extensionto fit in the 5/16 plug in the bottom of the fuel tank. Removed the plug, very little gas came out. Hole was not clogged,put in a gallon of fresh gas and let it drain, was clean. Installed the newly rebuilt fuel pump, replaced most of the fuel line from the tank to the carburator, insatalled two filters,one before the fuel pump, the second just before the carburattor. Put some fresh gas in the tank and started the Terraplane. Will put more gas in it later this week and take it for a ride. I was even able to change the headlight bulb without dropping the lens. All I need now is a spare and a rabbits foot and off we can go cruizin. Thanks everyone who gave me advice and encouragment. This is a great forum and thanks again. Arnie
