Hello everybody

This is weird: My 1969 Mustang Grande won't start when the fuel level is lower than around 75%. If already running, she's fine.

I have a new fuel pump and lines. Since the fuel gauge hasn't been working for a decade, I've been in the habit of filling up every time I drive. Since I never drive far, I never noticed this symptom until recently.

Is there something stuck in the tank (the old floater)? Lol

Help! Anyone have any guesses?
