Re: Fuel Pump Failure

Hi Angel, did you replace the pump with a new one? It may be defective and be losing it's prime. Or you have a pinhole leak in a hose or pipe from the pump to the tank. Check carefully. Where are you located?

Re: Fini - The Last Of A Long Line

My first car was a Renault 5L. Wicked gas mileage, but if there were four people in the car you had to get out and flip a lever to point the headlights down towards the roadway. Hilarious. Put lost of miles on that car. The engine was mounted backwards and the shifter went though the dash.

Re: WTB - Looking for a Tercel!

With a private sale you have to acquire an ITA number that was a complete PITA and costs extra too. I was using a border crossing that was quite small so that may have added to the comp...

Re: ISO Windshield 87

Are you planning on installing it yourself? They were still available a few years ago. A local glass place should be able to order it or at least tell you if they are still available Did you buy Ron?

Re: Fuel Pump Failure

Fuel filter is also new with no restrictions. Yes, I am familiar with that issue xirdneh. I've seen it before. Slimdude: I didn't try that at the time being in a gas station parking lot.

Re: Making some progress!

Wow, what a lot of work! What material are you using for the panels and are you going to use POR 15 as a rust prevention? Curious, have some restoration to do on one of mine.

Re: 4WD fuel pickup line?

Can you post a picture of the two pick ups side by side?

I believe the tubes are silver soldered (different process than soldering) to the cover. You could fabricate a new tube using the old one as a template and solder it onto the new pick up.
