Hey man, I have a 1978 power wagon and I watch allot of these videos. This one is by far my favorite. That ole dude is having a blast. Thank you sir for putting him there. I hope my kids do that with me. Hats off man!
Likely sender is rotted off and the mechanical fuel pump is an old diaphragm and will need replacing as well. Cool old truck and a nice find. The old vehicles equipped with catalytic converters will get red hot as they get clogged from residue from sitting.
We’re putting a new sending unit and gas tank in the truck as the old one had a crack. This had its catalytic converter deleted at some point in its life and replaced with a much better sounding glass pack.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video as much as we did working on the truck!
AMAZING BODY HAD A 75 SNOWFIGHTER 440 BOX ROTTEN OUT THANKS RUST BELT
Thanks, sounds like it didn’t fight snow as well as it’s name would imply.
@@trentonrogers9155 OH IT DID FINE but the salt on the roads killed it rusted out the body just the way it was in the rust belt
Nice truck, can’t wait to restore our white 1978 Macho PW one day.
They are good trucks, best of luck on yours and thanks for watching!

Who cares if its a shortbed. Its in great shape.
Thanks, it’s a great truck.
To bad it's a shortbed
Short beds are way better looming and are better offroad
