I have a 91 and it too had one in the tank and on the frame rail. bypass the one on the frame rail and usua...

Re: and its running

i.de say but when you have the gear driven timing it usually sounds like you have a blower and that could be miss leading.

Re: Oil Leaks

hmmm, what broke did it just strip out? I have another one but as you know you really cant change it while the motor is in. there are two other outlets on the oppisite side maybe I can pull that plug and put on the top and run one line on top and the other on the bottom.

Re: tappit?

Im not sure what size the cam is but do know its a radical cam. She rocks sittin at a stop light at an idel. I only run non ethenal premium and usually add gas treatment or octan boost 104. There are two of our many gas station that offer this kind of fuel. Better for seal and pump in the carbs.
