Air vents and split rubbers

Post by **hunter70** » 24 Oct 2007, 17:52

Hi
both the dash air vents near the doors are U/S , how the heck are they removed I would appeciate some help here .On my way back from a couple of days away I cought heavy rain and the gearshift got a lot lighter and smoother , it always pays to get down and dirty , although at my age it`s more difficult to get back up , I first noticed the bellows on the gearbox end of the shifter is split , hence the obvious , I pumped in plenty of oil and the gearchange is now very light and precise also I`d read on 80/90 about water getting into the tank via the filler rubbers around the neck , hey ho I found a split there too . I think I`ll have to order some new rubbers .

If you are going to drop the tank then consider the breather pipes as well.. these corrode (if steel) and the rubber parts perish.. 5.6mm fuel injection hose fits perfectly.... dont use 1/4"
