I plan on getting the job done this weekend. If there are any other NoVa folks that need the tap, drop me a note so we can arrange a time to drop by.

The small one is listed alone until 84, with size 15 x 1/8". In 85-86 both are listed with sizes, with an X in the qty column for the large one only. In 87 the small one disappears, but the X remains in place - typo I guess. Looks like a transition in the base chassis, as the thread is formed in it, and the location moved from under a bumper cover plug to visible in the air intake- whch I think should be the test - if its end is visible in the grille, it needs checking.

Sorry for the delay of game penalty, I haven't been looking around here much lately and now my PM box is full. I guess because I didn't renew my RL dues or something. Anyhow, I would like to borrow the tool if still Avail. Please email me the instructions for deposit to auzivision'at'yahoo.com (where at = @). Thanks!

Yes I had sent a reminder out - but it didn't get to you - I suffered the same PM overflow fate due to membership issues... (no reminder) so wasn't sure if you'd replied and I'd missed it ...

No harm done or delay - I don't have it back yet - but its expected soon - will PM details to you.

PS clean out your PM folder so I can send it to you

If you can't get the old plug out and you're on the list, get started now, don't wait until the tap shows up.
