Haha! The pilot tool was never the problem. Once Charles got in the engine bay and tilted the motor, it slid right in.

Fuel tank is in good shape now. I have de-sludged it, and now just need to take it to work this week and steam it. We have a 3000 psi pressure washer with a 220 degree burner. That will get the rest out, then I'll flush it with acetone or denatured alcohol and put some fuel and Sta-bil in it.

Potentially the first start could be Sunday. Charles is going to make the wiring for the electronic dizzy and S4 alternator. That is really all that is left, other than topping off all fluids.

Getting a new battery. Vaseline shouldn't be necessary! (unless it becomes sexy time)
