    I have nine 72 & 73 musstangs and all are 351 C engines. You should close the choke to get it started. Also loose the cup of gas. My neighbor died when one he was trying to start backfired and burned him. You can take one of the thin plastic water bottles. Put fuel in it and screw the top on. Take a razor blade and cut a slit in the cap and squirt fuel in and if it backfires the flame cannot get to the ruel. I started one that sat 38 years. I have a 73 yellow vert also that I drive about every day.

    That’s a 351 Cleveland

      Your wrong. The 351 Cleveland engine had a oil problem on number 5 rod. There is a work around for that problem it is runs an oil line from the the oil sender with a tee to the front of the engine near the fuel pump. There is a plug that can be removed and hook the oil line there then number 5 rod get the oil it needs.

    LOL, 60 MPH. You sure do not know much about cars. That truck would run 85 MPH all day long. I get a kick out of you guys. I had a 1949 Studebaker and Ford both would run 100 M. P. H. I had a 51 Studebaker that would run 110 M.P. H.
