    Try to use as little rubber line as you can. The shit deteriorates quickly. I dont trust it. I run about 4in of rubber line on my car total. Until I get a fuel cell and go with AN lines. Just enough to keep the vibration from the engine separated from the rest of the fuel line.

      yeah, rubber cracks with time. Ethanol also eats it up faster than gasoline does.

        ACK. Normally i woldn't mind that price but im getting to be a bit umm... Conservative of my cash now...

        40 bucks is a bit high for me at the moment for gaskets... If it where intakes i might say sure ok if that guarnties me no leaks . But for valve covers?

        ( I will take note of it and plan to get them lator though Thanks mang )


        Ok, so what gauge wire? :P I think i read somewhere 12 gauge but i aint sure :s


        O and thanks mangs

            :P Well i got the rear end boosted up. :P Cant use my ramps cause there in use by my roomie... Hes a bit lazy imo... But he also is old. So i cant just push his little ranger off of them ramps :-/

            Also tried sticking some old tires and rims under there as i have done before but eh... That didnt work either as my jack wont get them up that high Sooo i just got to settle for like a 6inch lift via jack stands. Ugha i hate them things. Fixing to look for my conversation witht he Scott mang As he gave me step by step instructions on how to let the tank down

                Ok, i know im slow buuut eh. I allways take my time when i work. Anyways. I got the filler neck off easy and i got the fuel lines disconnected from the tank. And for any one that will be doing this you will see a round thing inbetween the hard line and the rubber. There is a clip there just take it off and the hard line will seperate from the rubber :P


                Im trying to find where my wires are that i need to disconect .. So i can go ahead and lower this bad boy :P

                  Ok, you can preeety much count that the tank has been droped. Its just stuck God damn muffler folks put the pipes right in the way. So i tried a hacksaw i "Borrowed" Buuut it aint doing shit. Gonna look for a good saw later that i know i have somewhere. Since then though i have gotton the cfi off and im guessing what happens to be a spacer. I didnt think i had a spacer though. Humm. Next up Is going to be the infamous intake bolts :P

                      The fact that they like to brake on a few people :P. Well got a dead baty. so thats stumping me with the dizzy for a bit. Gotta find where the charger walked off to....

                      On a side note just got back from hacksawing off the hangers on the exhsaust. Worked good to drop the tank now if i could just get the tank out from under the car ide be happy

Git the valve covers off got a dead baty, got all the intake bolts off sept one.. which i dont think is actually a intake bolt cause it has some wire go to it.. ( Its in the front drivers side.) Umm.. CFI and EGR crap is all off ofc. Humm... I know there was somethin else. Just cant think of it.. O yea sawed both tail pipe hangers off. that turned out good :P. Cant think of anything else atm hehe. Ill be thinking of how to jack that rear end up enuff for me to get the tank out tonight.

                          I think the original jacks get it high. If you still have yours, you can jack it up and put something under the car to hold it there, then put something under the jack to make it lift higher.
