I've been neglecting the car as sits in the garage except to charge the battery here and there but I've been getting back to thinking about this. I was waiting for warmer weather and that's been here so I just have to get to it. I have been working on my '83 Sentra off and on in the meantime and ...

It all worked out for the pieces I needed being there.

Hi, Been a while since I checked in here. Whatever is going on I don't think it's a consistent blockage because of how long it ran after cleaning up the outside of the fuel pick-up, It turned out to be in fine shape overall minus layers of rust on the outside of the outer part of the lines. What was ...

Thanks Petros, It's been a while since I checked in here. My dad and I thought there would be a reason but neither of us had a good idea what it would be. Your idea makes some sense for sure. Maybe that was it. I don't remember right now if that was the section I replaced but since I used rubber ...

Thanks. Credit for that one goes to my dad Still haven't figured the original issue...

Here is the picture from after the rust was removed and it was coated in epoxy.

Well, What ended up happening was I sprayed the pick-up bolts with PB Blaster about every day for a week or so and then they all came out just fine. My dad came for an unexpected but welcome visit and soaked the pick-up in a rust dissolving solution for about three weeks. Yes, Weeks. The directions ...

Here is another. Expires Oct. 25, 2024.

Whew! That was a lot. At least it sounds like you might have it good to run for now.

I don't have an impact wrench at home so I was on the good old ratchet and breaker pipe. I'll probably have to drill the bolt out at least in part, maybe an easy out will get it, maybe not. Hopefully I can keep the threads of the hole in good shape. I sprayed some PB Blaster in there, figured it ...

Yeah, I've been spraying it with PB Blaster every day. I thought I didn't have any when I started with the fuel tank removal so I used WD-40 but then I remembered there was some in my other car. Might have not broken the 14mm bolt if I had used PB on it but those bolts didn't look rusty even and the ...

I knew the risk of one thing leading to another when I pulled the tank... But those lines really don't look good so good I did anyway.
That makes sense for removing the bolts. I'll use something stronger than Wd-40. Sounds like I might be in for a lot of thinking for the lines. Sigh.
Thank you both!

Well, One of the 14mm bolts snapped off when I had it turned about 3/4 in out. And the lines on top look about to be rusted through. How tricky is it to replace them?Possibly without snapping all those little bolts holding the plate on, that would be convenient. I was wondering how it is sealed ...
