Well the ole ford passed.  I put a new air pump on with my homemade
brackets.:)
I put on a new stock 1bbl carb and it passed with flying colors.  Thanks to
those that helped.

Next time make sure the fuel tank is almost empty (5 gals. or less) and add
a couple of bottles of Everclear. Guaranteed to pass.

PGA or Pure Grain Alcohol. Some states sell it, others don't (CA for
instance). It's made to be drunk. It looks and tastes like cheap Vodka only
it runs about 180 to 190 proof depending on the brand. I've got a bottle as
we speak. I use it for cleaning my smoking pipes when they go sour.  Put a
bottle of  PGA in a plastic tub with wine, fruit and rum and you've got
Hunch Punch, a great party pleaser at adolescent events. My guess is that it
would destroy the fuel system and play hob with the emissions sensors even
though it burns clean.
