  1. Thank you very much for your prompt response and help -I will probably put a tube running downward so it doesn’t spit up -currently having a problem with car overheating due to to fan relay not working right
  2. On my 1983 it has a small white plastic coolant overflow tank - there is on black hose connected to the radiator hose running from the tank with a plastic cap on it. The other end of the tank has no hose just an opening for the hose. Should there be a hose on that and does it function as an external drain to the ground Outside the car or should it be connected to something. Fyi There is an LT1 engine in this car if that makes a difference. Appreciate any help.or advise Thank you

    Gas gauge

    My gas guage seems to be stuck on half a tank no matter how much gas is in the car. normally when it’s full it’s on 3/4 of a tank and when it gets near empty it’s around 1/4 of a tank I was living with that, but now it’s stuck. I don’t know if it’s a fuse , the guage or float in the tank. Oddly once in awhile when I start the car Iit will go to full then back to 1/2. not a mechanic any advice would be appreciated thank you
  6. Dan Booth said this item is the cruise control with vacuum hose he guesses my problem may be the master cylinder gotta appreciate that guy 👍
  7. Plus what is the that nose on the brake pedal? I just checked and it's no longer there. I dont knownwho.touched it.
  8. Once in awhile my brakes don't seem to brake at slower speeds and when backing up. Brake booster is only a few years old. When it happens I put the car In reverse and press the brakes hard like the old time adjustment. Not sure if this is doing any good or not. Could it be anything to do with that little hose connected to the brake pedal? Thanks A83
  9. Thank you both very much - heard good things about Cokers- will check out Vogues
  10. I have some cooper white wall tires on my 1983 Avanti and they're starting to crack even though they Don't have much mileage on them Are cokers any good Any advice would be appreciated Many thanks A83
  11. I think the response indicating the two different bases might be correct . I did use all the same bases but do believe the two bases might work but don’t have a clue what they are - I think someone earlier in the post may have noted them
  12. Thanks I got it out accessing the nuts without taking the seat out - one nut is going to be impossible to get back in the other I did. Thanks Question?????? Does the speedometer have an electrical sensor in addition to the cable ?
