EScanlon Posted March 5, 2006 Share #13 Posted March 5, 2006 No worries about that, we can type you through that.Do yourself a favor, open the gauges, clean them out, repaint the insides of the can with a bright white paint (careful of the green plastic lens for the instrument lamp) and you will absolutely LOVE the look. Keep careful track of all the ventilation tubes, their arrangement and positions. Then disassemble, clean inside and out with some good grease cutting dishwashing soap, allow to dry and then repair / patch any cracks / leaks. The end result is a car that ~almost~ smells new.Enrique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pen280z Posted March 5, 2006 Share #14 Posted March 5, 2006 does anyone happen to know what you have to do to the tach to make it operational with a v8? is it something you can do yourself or would a mechanic have to do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
