Re: Avoided possible catastrophe
I have come to use the available neoprene gaskets and 'O' rings wherever I can. I learned back some 30 years ago NOT to over-tighten the gas gauge. When it starts to feel tight, turn a little bit more and leave it. If it leaks then the problem is that something is not seated properly.
I am also going to switch to the Teflon pads for the steering linkage. I missed the 'Wacky Weekend Sale' of these at Mike's a month ago. Now have to pay full price - still I think it is worth it for my 'driver'.
