hiya

couple of tec questions

- temp gauge doesn't want to work - is it normally the sensor on the engine and if so best pace to buy or gauge needs repair from peoples experience

- did the 75 model do away from plastic fuel lines in the tunnel or still had them which means i need to replace them

- warning buzzers for door open / key in ignition - are they available ? mine sound pretty sick ( like im sticking a pin in a frog )

cheers in advance

75-76 cars had the fuel pump up front and they went with a black plastic material that was tougher as the feed line was now pressurized as opposed to the earlier cars with fuel pump in the rear sucking fuel through it. The area where lines that see the most deteriorating are where they exit the firewall and are exposed to more heat. SS line kits are available and are safer. The cost about $100 in the states but shipping to NZ will be pricy.
