2 fuel tank questions – can i use a 76 tank on a 67 dart and is 1 gallon enough

to start the car?

i idiotically routed my exhaust too close to the gas stank and burned holes in the tank. i dropped the tank and realized i had a tank from a 76. i got it to fit in there and put the filler neck on, reconnected the sending unit wire. added 1 gallon (it was completely empty) and the car turns over but doesnt seem to get fuel.
