The gas cap was the first thing I tried! Just forgot to mention it. I'll take a look at the gasket and washer you mentioned tomorrow. Thanks a lot for your help. I may not get to drive it much but I sure have learned a lot about it!

Where did you connect the vacuum pump? If it was at the output of the flex line, the flex line is suspect. Can you post a photo with the vacuum pump connected?

If you think you have a gas problem, use a little spray ether and if it starts, you found what you have to work on a gas problem is the gas cap a original or a china one, it has to be a vented cap, make sure you have gas in the tank, you can blow out the fuel line disconnect on both ends and blow it out, my be restricted, by rust ot dirt, and view the whole fuel line to make sure it is not kinked or not rusted, or has any holes in it, you can use a vacuum hand held pump, plug one end and see if it wil hold vacuum, this will tell you there is no leaks, in the line, hope this helpd 37Ragtopman, Maine will be interesting to what you find is the starting problem.

Had to go out of town for most of this week. I'll post more on it when I get back and can check a few things.
