    Last Sunday, I rallied and did the POR15 tank repair on my car. That stuff is amazing. I also mocked up where I would put my voltmeter and tach. Today, I wired and installed the 2 guages, painted the underside of the tank and started the car to check the guages. I did have to put on an extra long piece of fuel line and run it into my lawnmower gas can. All is right with the world.
    Tomorrow before work, the tank will have set for the prescribed 4 days and i will re-install it... for the 4th and I hope the last time i hope

    I pretty much have had this whole week off. It is awesome. I've been working on my car the entire time, mostly. Me and a buddy did some work at the VFW, repairing a crack in the floor.
    Military life is good when it's good and sucks when it sucks. lol
