Re: wiper linkage bush

There was a bloke selling wiper bush refurb. kits on both Epay and the FB/EK enthusiasts page a couple of years back - they were about $20 a set from memory

Re: Eddie

One of the $50 specials I owned was a HK and it used to do the same thing but I never bothered to find out what it was - it could get a bit hairy in Sydney traffic though ...

Re: Neil's FB Station Wagon

With either method I would make a tank a bit bigger than the fuel tank and completely submerse it - you could do a half at a time though if it will fit into something you already have

Re: Neil's FB Station Wagon

The VE pumps have a built in swirl pot and technically won’t give any trouble- while the tank was open we welded bits of flat sheet with a couple of mm gap at the bottom around the fuel pump and the sender unit float

Re: Neil's FB Station Wagon

If I had my time again Neil I would mount the pump towards the rear of the tank rather than the front - we did fit baffles to limit fuel surge but I think it would have been better as far back as it can go
