  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Try RockAuto.

    I think that's the name of the place.

    Worst case scenario, is to have your cleaned and resealed. I think they use steel balls or something to shake out all the crap. But let's see what comes up. Give it a day or more.

    People will chime in and point you in the right direction.

    There are no repro fuel tanks available for 2nd generation Rivs. Your best bet is to have yours repaired, if it is repairable, or replace it with a good 'used' unit. The tanks are the same shape for '66-'70 Rivieras with '69 being the first year for the electric fuel pump which is located in the tank. :TU:

    Seems like i"ll wind up having mine cleaned. There's no rust anyway.
