1975 914 - one thing leads to another!
While working on brakes, I found rust in the recessed area of the driver's floor pan where the pedal braket is bolted down. Apparently moisture has gathered or sat in this low area of the floor pan. I'm going to use a small metal brush to remove as much rust as possible. I'd appreciate advice on any products I could use to remove the remaining rust, and products I could use to coat the area to prevent further oxidation at this location. Thanks, Robbie |

QUOTE I wasn't planning to - is there a reason that I should consider doing that? Did you use any type of product to coat the area to prevent further rust? Thanks, Robbie I would... rebuild it with the brass bushings to prevent binding... it also saves you from having to pull it later when they do fail.... since you'll have the cluster out anyway. there's a lot of products such as POR-15, rust bullet, rust encapsulator... I used Ospho, followed by self etching primer and rustoleum rattle can... |
