Matt probably won’t see this, but in case you want to try this. You need to empty the gas tank, get rid of the bad gas, replace the fuel filter (but buy at least two since you will have to replace the first one), then pull the fuel line off the carb and crank the engine to see if the fuel pump is even pumping gas up to the carb. If it is pumping gas, run it till the gas runs clean. Then reattach to carb and see what happens. Yes, you will probably need to rebuild carb. It’s full of little cork, rubber, and plastic parts that are toast by now. Have fun!
pixiniarts, oh yeah. The right way would be to pull the plugs, put a squirt of Marvel Mystery Oil in each cylinder and let it sit for a day to lubricate the cylinder walls and maybe not break a ring if one was stuck. Then pull a valve cover and see if you see sludge or caked oil. Then replace oil with some heavy detergent oil and a new filter. Buy enough to replace it since you won’t want to run that oils for more than a couple hours. To be honest, if it was really sitting for 15 years, I’d just lube the cylinder walls and run some fresh gas so I could run it for a few minutes to make sure it isn’t broke in a big way. I’d still be planning on pulling the engine for at least a quick going through to replace seals and gaskets even if everything else is perfect. Or if you are planning on doing an LS swap anyway, go ahead and fill the bowl with gas and see what happens for the hell of it. Then get busy pulling the motor.
It has a manual fuel pump, so it will not pump fuel if the motor isn't running. Just replace the fuel pump, new fuel filter, dump the sludge out of the fuel tank, rebuild the Holly 650cfm double pump.
It's crazy to see how far Matt has made it in his life. From driving that El Camino everywhere as his daily driver just 10 years ago.. to everything he has worked hard for and earned now. Truly an inspiration!
It is so great to see such an American family come together and take care of stuff. This is what the rest of this country needs to be and learn from!! Thank you for sharing this.
Matt please! Drain fuel tank. Make sure fuel pump works. Replace fuel filter and just spray out the jets with some carb cleaner. Should run after that. That gas is way too old and probably has water in it. you could hydrolock the engine if you're not careful!
Keeping the easy way in mind. replace the fuel filter first, if that doesn't do it, check for fuel getting to the carb, might be the pump. It's a ranch truck, the last thing would be the carb.
Thanks to Mere’s vlog, we were able to see a side of her that we really haven’t seen. Now it makes sense why you two are such a power couple!! Keep up the vlogs, both of you, and above all, THANK YOU for bringing us some semblance of normalcy in such trying times!
Matt, I am in awe. You are an awesome human being and a better man than most. I wish that I would have had a father or an uncle that was half as good as you are to those kids. Mark is smiling down on you in respect God rest his soul. Never change who you are those kids need your positive influence and guidance as you know already. They are lucky to have you, all if them including Mere. Love all you guys and wish you the best always.
Congratulations! You now have to build another fence around your pool because it's required by law in the state of Texas - "residential swimming pools are required to be secured by a fencing at least four feet high, with outward-swinging, self-closing and self-latching gates" . Also, because you have children living at that house, you can now be charged with child endangerment because you don't have a fence around your pool... I'm guessing the next video is going to be a "construction ranch" episode of them build a new fence around the pool.
I've been watching your videos for quite a while now, you make me want to be a better person for my daughter, I wanna be like you but in my own way, you take the term influencer to a new level, i believe you inspire those who look up to you
That 10 year old gas will get sucked up into the fuel lines, fuel injectors, and it will ruin the engine the fuel filter won’t do any help with 10 year old gas I hope he used a red gas can
@@Crazyarnold12 I agree, my point was that even though he did put new gas in, the filter is probably already clogged after cranking. I'd remove the filter, drop the line to the carb directly in a can of fresh gas if the intent is to just see if the engine runs well. no injectors
The good old days when you actually could work on your own car those were the days for sure!! Absolutely growing up so fast and to dang cute, such a great family!!
The Allen key it comes with on the starter shims are for the spacing of the Bendix to the starter. It’s a 1/8th in stick and it should go right between it with no problem. If it’s shimmed correct.
Just pull that bowl off the side of the carb' and free up the float that's in it. That float is most likely stuck closed and not allowing any gas to get in.
@@keepironman14 He may have, but the thing about cleaner is gas has to move through the areas in order for the cleaner to work, and if that float is stuck, which it most likely is, then the gas with the cleaner in it can't get into the carburetor to clean it.
@Howie Felterbush That was my thought as well. He needs to unhook the filter first, hook a hose to it, and insert it into a bottle. Crank the engine over, and confirm that fuel is making it to the carb, before messing with the carb. If it is, then take the Q jet off, pull the bowls, and check the floats. Either way, as it was parked running, likely with no fuel stabilizer, a rebuild or replace would be a good idea, and, if it was me, I'd check the local pull a part, for an Edlelbrock or Holley unit. The hunt and work would make for a good vlog, and show a new generation how the older stuff works.
This kind of homestyle vlog is so fun to watch man. i loved every minute of it! Really awesome to see the great vibes in your family and between u and your wife.

We need more vlogs from mere. It's nice to see who she really is. Just like Granger's and lunker's wives. She's got some talent for vlogs even though she may be nervous about it. Hope to see more from her but also her running bunker branding. I think a lot of people would love to see what goes on there on an everyday basis
"I haven't owned a carburated car since I was driving this, 10 years ago." Baja Bug: " Excuse me? Are we forgetting something here? I only had 2 of them!"
Don’t worry Matt I burnt my leg on my dirt bike yesterday, quick tip don’t wear shorts when your riding a dirt bike, you drop your bike on you and you’ll get burnt very quickly lol.
Yeah pretty much any excuse to take off his shirt since he started working out more. Nevermind that on a sunny day you actually get hotter without a shirt than with a loose fitting light colored shirt.
Chrisfix has a video on how to clean out the entire fuel system that's really helpful and really breaks it down for the average person. I would probably follow that tutorial to clear out any thing in the fuel lines, injectors, gas tank, etc.
Am I the only one who realize this or not but if I see Lincoln addie and Annie I’m going to be so star struck by them and how they’re like 4 years younger than me and still more popular than me probaly forever

Matt, I've been working on a 78 bronco and have experienced almost all of the problems you've had so far. See if you can disconnect the fuel line from the fuel pump and run a line to a gas can instead of the old gas tank. That will eliminate your fuel problem as you work on it!
Really needs to drop the tank and flush it, replace any rubber lines, inspect and flush the solid lines replace if needed, new filter and pump with a full carburetor rebuild. I personally would just pull the motor and throw it on a stand and go all the way through it. Pops said it was a built motor right. Hopefully Matt didn't stick any valves running that whole can of starting fluid through it. 🤞

🤣🤣 seriously these 2 are the best!!
Matt: "If I only had a lift"
Everyone who doesn't have a lift but knows Matt HAS a lift: :\
Matt, you legally required to have a fence around a pool in Texas. Your insurance company will also require a fence.
Lil Abe is not a baby anymore.
He's growing sooo fast!
My brother bought an El Camino for his daughters 16th birthday. He worked on it with her. Finally got it running. She was so proud.
Your wife's comment about the El Camino was the best laugh I have had all day. A great sense of humor and the dead pan delivery.
Carburetor is probably just gummed up... easy to clean. Fuel filter might also be gummed up.
First of all goes fuel pump though
I'd just replace the carb. because its atleast 10yrs old.
You can probably just clean the carb and replace the gaskets if they are worn or cracked (almost guaranteed that they are)
I'd throw a new set of plugs and wires in too. Just for good measure. It was pretty rough at idle.
Keeping the easy way in mind. replace the fuel filter first, if that doesn't do it, check for fuel getting to the carb, might be the pump.
It's a ranch truck, the last thing would be the carb.
Let us review:

Those cousins are just too cute. Glad they are happy
Matt, I've been working on a 78 bronco and have experienced almost all of the problems you've had so far. See if you can disconnect the fuel line from the fuel pump and run a line to a gas can instead of the old gas tank. That will eliminate your fuel problem as you work on it!
I would probably start with the fuel pump and give the carb a quick cleaning.
How about the fuel filter?
Could be leaking fuel from the lines could be the fuel pump or a fuel filter only time will tell
Really needs to drop the tank and flush it, replace any rubber lines, inspect and flush the solid lines replace if needed, new filter and pump with a full carburetor rebuild. I personally would just pull the motor and throw it on a stand and go all the way through it. Pops said it was a built motor right.
