Message	It had a dead fuel injector so I put it in storage and never got back to it. Finally after 8 years I got around to fixing it up, and it runs great. Some areas I had to work on: Gas tank, fuel injectors, fuel filter, new brake cylinder, removed power steering pump and cleaned it with new hoses, had alternator professionally cleaned. New battery (of course). All new plastic clips under the hood (because they're so brittle), and relocating the det sensor because of the stupid rotten connector (only a temp fix). It really just depends on what kind of condition its in. First things first, try and hand crank it to see if it will turn over. No use in putting all that effort into a seized motor. I'll be glad to share my experiences with you. ksto3@yahoo.com If I would have known addiction was this expensive I would have seen a shrink a long time ago. --BadZCar (FL)
