Check fuel line from pump to carb moving lines to replace pump line could be close to or against block or radiator hose picking up heat expanding fuel pushing it past needle and seat.

The times I've seen this problem fuel tank was under pressure vented fuel tank and problem solved.

I have a 69 D100 225. I had a carter one barrel with issues. My son got me a Holly One barrel with vacuum choke. Runs great but I'm not sure what sets the choke, does it still have to be set manually.

Not sure it had to be defect in cam, teeth were splintered.

Check the gear on my camshaft out. Bet you never seen anything like it in a 69 sweptline with a 225. The gear on the oil pump is fine, the nylon gear on distributor is damaged,the camshaft gear is destroyed. That's 8,000 miles on a long block the good news is the builder is taking care of it. Sorry ...

I need help, I have a 1969 d100 with 225 & manuel transmission. I need a transmission mount. Every parts place shows one, but it's the wrong one mine is flat and about one inch thick. All I can find are kinda round and bolt through a drop down cross member, my cross member is straight. I would appre...

Check parts store for an ignition switch

I have very long arms so getting the wheel an extra four inches away really helps. With my arms straighter it is easier to drive, and its only one inch on each side. I don't see any difference in turning and a little quicker steering. For me it's a win win all the way round. I'll keep the original w...

Forgot in last post I'm running a 1969 D100, the most dependable vehicle I've ever owned since 1982 when my dad trader for this truck. She became mine in 1995.

Two weeks ago I installed a 15" grant challenger with a 3 1/2 inch dish.I was tired of wheel being back and not being able to extend my arms. I couldn't be happier it feels like a different truck. Delt with it for 23 years she steers so much better. No more difficult in a parking spot, the best $80 ...

I would start with starter relay. It may not be working properly.

I've only put about 10,000 miles on it ,coming up on having it two years go their web site and watch their videos

I went with s and j engines out of Spokane Washington. For my 69 225,no one else had the block to build. 10years 100,000 mile warranty. I also was able to keep the original engine,just incase I want to do something to it myself.

Did someone lift the truck at some point. That could explain longer lines.

If you jack using front axle do not jack in center. Bends axle enough to effect front-end alignment. Cost me $90 to have my axle straightened years ago.

My 69 d100 drivers side lock was broken and missing parts, I got tired of crawling over seat to lock and unlock door. Found electric door locks on Amazon easy install work great. Mine were $60 but I have seen them cheaper.

Amazon $6/$15

Have you checked your 12v under load key on everything hooked up. I have seen full12v and under load drop to 0v. My 2 cents

You should see black where exaust is coming out, you should also by able to hear it. When I had the same problem the flange gasket was leaking. Also after you find leak make sure you have no holes in firewall, gear shifter gas pedal.

I did mine on the truck. Support vehicle and let axel down. I used a torch and caught old bushings on fire. Push center out, the hard part is the metal sleeve out of the eye. It's time consuming.
