Haha, Thanks. Pumped the gas to help it start last week and it started at redline and scared the poo poo out of me. Combined with the squealing serpentine belts, haha. Need to figure out the correct lengths to replace them. I sprayed the linkages with some brake cleaner. I'll give the lithium grease a shot too.



Picked up some louvers. Hoping to get the radio wire harness I need from the same guy soon.
Does anyone know how I can straighten out the bends? I was thinking about taking them off and sandwiching between some wood. Not sure how hard they are to get apart yet. Failing that maybe take it to a body shop to have it repaired.
