It all started about a month ago w/ the fuel pump acting strange so that lead to a NOS solid state SU pump (found on Craigs list)and replacing flex fuel lines which lead me to discover I had the wrong gas cap for my tank and that my tank is non-vented?? Mine is a Nov 69 production and titled as a 1970. That lead to a major rebuild of the carbs which are AUD 135's but should be AUD 405's installed by PO. Well since my brake M/C was leaking and I had a new one it was time to replace the M/C. That's always a fun experience....so since the pdeal box was out I might as well repaint the firewall and deck that were damaged by the brake fluid. What the heck might as well rebuild the clutch M/C & slave. Now w/ the carbs polished and rebuilt some K&N's would look good in there. Just for sport I did reinstall a PCV valve and reset & rebalanced the carbs. Final job was to do a complete lube and fluid check with a top off of the steering rack.
It was good to finally address all the "to do" things and this week it was drive time. She runs great and is a pleasure to drive AND stopps well. It was time well spent!! Looking forward to the summer season!!
