Thumbs up

Thanx, maybe I'll try the Bosch pads next time .

I well remember these cars when new, the front wheels dusted up terribly .

My '84 Coupe was ruined by stupid hippies in Sta. Monica (near the beach) : they ran it on anything that'd burn and left it sans fuel cap for God alone knows how long .

I've removed the in tank screen a few times, the last few times it's clean as a whistle .

I also removed, disassembled and carefully cleaned the fuel gauge sender as fungus likes to hide in there .

I once got a tank full of coffee colored Diesel from a Chevron station ~ this set me back quite a ways in my never ending fungus fight .

I think (hope) I'm nearing the end .
