I was reading a post back on page 100 or so. The issue was about gas hoses failing and as it turned out the hoses where not compatible with todays blended fuels.

Today while I was at my better parts house I asked the parts guy if I needed a fuel pump for a 50's or 60's something. Will that fuel pump diaphragm be compatible todays fuel? He did not know, grabbed a parts book, '71 Dodge OK? Yep! Called his guy, the guy said "That pump was compatible". But that does not mean all pumps are.

Check before you drop your coins.

really depends on how long it's been on the shelf, some 50's stuff was made a loooong time ago, some faster moving stuff may be much more recent

Most all that stuff is neoprene and it is pretty much compatable with all sorts of stuff. Something from the 40's down may not be made of it though.


Kicking self for selling off my Taskforce trucks.
Still looking for an LCF or conventional big bolt in decent shape.


As of 10-26-2022, A 55.2 Taskforce long bed now the work begins
