I checked it this past weekend...It's shot. I figured it would be but I was
hoping...didn't want to spend the $42 considering everything else I need to
buy. I'm still working on getting the varnish out of the tank! I've never
seen so much goop! I want to know where it's all comming from! I would
venture to guess that I had a 3 gallon tank to start with and will have an
8.5 gallon tank when I'm through cleaning the varnish out! :o))))

I can't find a new fuel line to tank fitting. are they no longer available?
I suppose I could reuse the old one but I'll need to add a piece of rubber
fuel hose to connect it to the main line.

Are the capillary tubes for the oil pressure gauge still available? The
girlfriend closed the truck tail gate on mine this past weekend and folded
it in half...AAAAggggggHHHHHHHH!! Her thought was oops sorry...just get
another one. I don't see them listed in the catalogs so I'm a little
perplexed about it.

Paul...I did figure out my earlier wiring quandry...I could kick myself in
the head...It was so simple yet I made it so hard for myself...isn't that
the way it always goes.

Thanks in advance to everyone.
