  2. Bingo. That was never a 7 of any kind.
  3. Yes do lock the steering wheel in place; I use a scissors jack and some protective material to push up on it from below. As to friction at the tire surface, there are inexpensive means of reducing it. A piece of plastic sheet under the tire is one way. Another one I've heard about is two pieces of linoleum tile with some grease smeared on them. That one sounds a bit messy. I'm sure there are other ways just waiting to be discovered. And of course one can always get alignment plates...
  4. 8 MPG? You may want to pull the dipstick and sniff for gas smell.
  5. Hi, I'm going to contact you via private messaging.
  6. It certainly appears to be a regulator, and fuel makes the most sense. But it also appears as though only one of the barbed tubes is connected to a rubber line. That seems odd if fuel is going through it. Is there a third connection, perhaps on the underside?
  7. I put my tank where the battery mounts, and moved the battery to just in front of the cowl. Different engine, same chassis.
  8. Berks County PA, near Kutztown. Here is a link to pictures. Let me know if it doesn't work. Price? I haven't really done any research so at this point I'm open. https://photos.app.goo.gl/v3AxFkQsUCCASLYv8
  9. Ouch! Good thing the car is so light. My gas gauge reads "full" all the time, probably because there is no sending unit whatsoever. I deal with it by keeping an eye on miles driven. So far so good... 🤞
  10. Let the purist wailing begin... ...oh, wait, that's an Elan thing.
  11. And to think it only took AI ~5 watt-hours of energy to create that.
  12. I have one. Located in southeast Pennsylvania USA. It came out of a 1995 S3. If you're interested reach out and I'll send pictures etc.
  13. An actual event during the Cold War. https://www.hagerty.com/media/car-profiles/this-austin-healey-sprite-escaped-east-germany-twice/
