Did a few things today, look inside if you like to help. lol
Did a few things today. 1. I am wheel shopping so I pulled the 8 holes that are on there to check the size they are 16x7.5 et38 with 205/55. The ones I want are 17x7.5 et 35 with 215/45, I think it should work. Can I use the stock lug nuts or should I get some other kind? 2. Since I had the tire off I was able to get under the rear and see how old the fuel filter was, well what I found was not good. I need to find a source for the fuel line from the tank to the others. I also probably should replace the filter, but what about the other parts down here? 3. I checked the spark plugs and they looked terrible. I need some new ones will the bosch f8dc4 be ok? And 4. I noticed that the vacuum line from the breather to the idle thing is not long enough to reach the breather hose, how much would that effect idle and how can I fix it?

None resistor plugs for your engine .Nothing fancy . Also new copper washers on the banjo bolts after you get the replacment fuel pipe .Change the fuel filter while in there . And put a tin of fuel additive in the tank .Other members will help you i am sure

Hanly if the fuel hose is not in stock. then go to an a shop the makes special hose up for hydraulic machines like presses and large lorries .Some one will make you one if you take the pipe for them to remove the special conector .Then they will crimp it in to new hose for you. Other than get one from a pick and pull yard, i thing thats what you guys call it.
