Also getting ready for unStock. New tank, custom cut and sized to fit my strut towers. Old tank with fuel cell had a leaking bladder and since I've retired from racing decided to just go with a steel tank. I cut off the NLA fittings on the stock tank and had AN fittings welded on.

The Fuel Safe bladder used one of their fuel level senders and now I'm back to the stock sender but don't have a pin out on the wires. I have three wires green, brown, and black. Four terminals on the sender. Which goes where? Anyone?

Guessing the terminal with the jumper is chassis ground and the gold terminal is green wire. Brown and black to the other two terminals. Am I close?

Maybe this will help? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

That helped.....I think.
This is what I THINK I should do:

I'll wait to hook it up until after unStock. Hopefully another 914 will be there so that I can see which wires are in the various slots in the connector (Molex?).

Pulling together 7 x 16 911 part number and 951 8x16 part number for someone. Hard to remember all the wheels.
Sending these boys off for refinishing

While the rebuilt engine awaits on the stand, I had the rocker panels removed to see what's underneath there...and, was relieved to find it's all still very clean & rust free....I'm very happy about that! Jack posts have some protective primer on them that I applied over 30 years ago, and they're still very original & strong.

Then, we removed the old original dark factory coating from the wheel wells, including the entire underside belly. It's also very clean & rust free throughout....getting ready to have new protective coating applied.

Started it for the first time since Memorial Day (spent summer in MN, spent last two months recovering from herniated L3/4).

Car fired right up, and the 20+ mile check ride went well. Only the driver-side headlight was AWOL on the first try.

Next few days look good weather-wise.

Must be living right!

Bought a new taillight set - US spec, and a set of euro lenses from Porsche.

Not sure what we will get from a quality perspective.

Not to my 914, but for it. I brought home a new Aluma trailer. This will let me take the 914 to events--and bring my wife along. She drew the line at about an hour for 914 road trips. Too exciting, I guess.

That should tow great- you won't even know it's back there! I would suggest the front panel with or without a tire rack just to save the front of your car, especially after all the work you put into it!

Had a final spin now that the season is ending. Moved it in place for the front end overhaul we have planned for this winter. I never get tired of driving this thing!

Good for you. I have three different fusions and 10+ screws. I know how you feel. Keep pushing for the good fight
