Thanks! Hopefully I'll be putting the old man back to work soon
The fuel system was the first thing I tackled. Dropped the tanks, rinsed them out with muriatic acid, replaced the crusty/melted sending unit in the passenger's side, and all the rubber lines (gotta love modern gasoline). Eventually want to replace these with polyethylene tanks once I start driving it regularly.
Since the truck had been parked out in the desert for a few years, the rats and rabbits out there had destroyed most of the wiring a few times. Spent a couple of hours cleaning up what was previously "fixed" under the cab. Fuel level senders and tank switch now work.
Got to replace the cab mounts.
