Hello all. new here. I have bought a 71 340 duster There is a funny large tube in the trunk by the fuel filler tube. looks like some sort of storage tube? does anybody know what that is? thanks

 

picture?

 

I dont have a picture but it looks like a storage tube approx 3 in around and 14 in long with a cap. it is mounted on the top of the left rear fender well. i have seen it in other pictures also. Thanks

 

Is it a former drag car? If so could be for BB's for additional weight ballast. Does is have a removable cap on it?

 

Another VOTE for a PIC !

 

Richsimp must have fallen and can't get up ??... !!

 

i have it on my car. I have a 340 duster as well. I have a fuel cell in my trunk and the tube you are describing is the fuel line. If you follow it up to the body of your car it connects to the gas cap area. I have it disabled on my car so there is just an empty pipe. It should be hollow and have an open bottom. Cant guarantee its the same but thats what it is on mine.
