Well, I feel a bit silly but not really.

You may have read over the past year or so that I was having problems with
water in my gas tank. Got all new hoses and seals for the tank - seemed
better but still the problem showed up.

Well I received a new tank for my birthday (Yay!!!) - we dropped the old on
out on Sat and I found......That the expansion tank on the passenger side
had a problem - the fitting on the top of the tank had separated - I am
quite confident that os where I was getting all the water. Rain and water
fromt he wheels was getting in the top of that expansion tank and leaking
into the gas tank. Looking in the gas tank the unmistakeable rust stain
proves this theory.

I still think I needed a new tank though because something wasn't quite
right with the outlet to the fuel pump - gas didn't flow out of there the
way I thought it should.

So what I've decided to do (for now at least) is I have by passed the
expansion tank on that side - still left the driver side tank operational.
Now I know I'm going to get a bunch of "Don't Do it!" responses - and I
understand it was designed for two but like I said I can always go back and
fix it later on if I need to. I've read posts from folks saying you can do
without the exapnsion tanks and those that say you cannot - I split the
difference and will try it with just one!

Now if I can figure out how to get the line fitting off the old clutch
slaves cylinder so I can put the new cylinder in I'll be golden! Darn thing
is rusted solid - sprayed the crud out of it with PBBlaster over many
days - smacked it good with a hammer - it won't budge. I guess I can put
heat to it but I don't want to hurt that plastic line. ALways something I
tell you.
