Post in the parts wanted, many of us have plenty of spares we might donate.
I'll add, having a smaller economy car (I'm partial to the wagons, Focus/Duratec 2.0 L...42 mpg hwy!) is really helpful for parts runs. I even ran my lawn and tree service using a Ford Escort wagon 5sp with a 6' utility trailer for a couple of years. Hauled truck doors, engines, hoods, even an 8' truck bed floor. I shoulda taken photos of that...
HELP!

Re: HELP!
Doesn't sound like too much to get running. But.. if it's been sitting up a long time, other
things may pop up as you start driving it. And you wanna hope the gas tank is not full of
varnish. If it is, take the tank off and clean it out before trying to run the truck. You'll
avoid a lot of hassles..
I wouldn't worry about the interior until you are actually driving it.

Re: HELP!
When I rock the suspension and listen to the gas tank i don't hear any sloshing, which I take as a good sign.NM5K wrote:Doesn't sound like too much to get running. But.. if it's been sitting up a long time, other
