Joe,
How can I tell if my tank in my 1974 ¾ ton is original? I have seen no rust in my filters (yet). I know my supply line is relatively new but I was already planning on replacing my fill and vent hoses. They look old and not like the new hoses that are made for ethanol.

I have not one scrap of the original fuel system left. The tank was ternplate, which will send a ton of rust through the engine until it rusts right through and the hoses were NOT compatible with modern fuel. If you have ANY part of the original fuel system it needs to go now. This included the fill and vent hoses. My fill hose was dissolving from the inside out and sending rubber chunks into the tank.
