To prepare for the installation of the Tangerine solid fuel lines, I pulled the tank out of the car. Two large rubber blocks fell out. Now I am trying to figure out where to place these blocks when the tank goes back in. Does anyone know?
Additionally Im am looking for new lug nuts. The car has five-lug fuchs rims. But the seller put mismathed nuts on. Mismatched meaning; the conical part of the nuts do not match the concaves in the rims. I still have some aluminum nuts (from my 911 days), but these used to break. Looking on the web I cant find steel black nuts to match the rims. Does anyone here have a solution for this? |

If you have a helper on one end of the tank, you both can adjust the rubber blocks so the tank sits perfect and the hood closes properly. After getting to this point, carefully mark the tank where the rubber block sits.
The next time the tank is pulled, the rubber blocks can be taped to the tank using the Mark's as a guide. I've been able to drop I the tank back in without help on the first try |
