Gallons per minute

Posted by PennyPackard On 2019/11/1 9:00:55

Hello,

For frustrating reasons I have to drain and drop the fuel tank again on my 49 Deluxe 22nd sedan (288). What makes it more complicated is that the gas gauge isn't working, something I hope to address while the tank is off. Does anyone happen to know generally about how many gallons per minute at idle the 288 will go through? I have a 5 gallon emergency tank but I'd like to go through as much as possible to avoid unnecessary gas transfers in the driveway.

Thanks!
