Fuel system

  I drained the fuel tank previously and started removing the tank and pump. The old fuel is still good for a lawnmower or something, but not for a daily driver.

  The tank is kinda weird, it has underside nuts holding it, but it also has through the trunk floor bolts with and without captured nuts. Then you have to remove the rubber filler neck clamps and the evaporative canister  hose right next to that.


The tank turns out to be in very good condition, just need to clean the inside and repaint.

The fuel lines were blown out with air, making a old stinky mess up near the carbs.  The lines were intact though.


The SU pump.  Power was supplied to it, but it wouldn't run.
The cap got cracked while removing so it may be someone's spare...
For the replacement price of a new SU- I think its getting a newer pump.
