Re: Pampered Private - M1009

I got tired of the fuel gauge not working and the exhaust leaks. The manifold collector bolts came right off, I was pumped thinking I was in the clear. I had to remove the rear bumper as the fuel tank shield was welded to the trailer hitch by the po, those bolts fought me for a couple hours. The fuel sender was pretty crusty and tested bad. I also cleaned the little fuel wire disconnect connection. I painted the fuel tank with por15 while it was out, tested the fuel gauge and its now working great. The exhaust kit I got was for a v8 blazer from LMC which fit perfect using the original exhaust hangers (except the little muffler brackets that I deamed unessesary) until I got to the tailpipes which ended up way to low, I got them all tucked up with a bit of fab work.
