For all 63-96 Corvette owners. You should check to see if the drain hose in your gas filler cavity is clear and draining properly. We see issues with car coming in during thunderstorm season with water in the fuel tank. When the drain hose gets clogged the water can not drain out properly and will fill to the point that the water drains into the fuel tank. 63-69 Corvettes have vented caps so the water pours right in. Later models are sealed caps but most of the seals can still leak slightly due to age. Water is heavier than fuel so any water settles to the bottom where the fuel pickup or fuel pump is. when you try to start the car this water gets pumped into the carburetor or injectors. This can mean a stranded car and a costly repair.
