      Time for someone else to enjoy the LC like I have. Not wanting to sell it, but life and plans have changed, as they do. I am the second owner and purchased it while I was living in Japan, and imported it myself. This is not the typical JDM as it...

      Thanks - all good advice and I’ll give this a go next and report back. It’s a troopy with a floor and cabinetry so access is out of the question from the top.

      I asked @Box Rocket to draw it up as I described it. We can circle back to this and see how close we get

      How’s everybody doing? ‘88 HJ75 with dual tanks. About a year ago, my rear tank gauge decided that registering at 1/4 tank was good enough. Filled it up to see if a difference was to be made and no change. About a month or so later, my main tank...
