From: Grande Prairie, AB. That's Canada you hoser.
I scooped up an 86 jimmy for 1000 bucks.
Owner said it needed a fuel pump, so I bought one and had help dropping the tank.. turns out one ground wire to the sending unit (?) was cut and another brown one as well. (I think this was from the person who repaired the rear tail light wiring)
We tested it out of curiosity after filling a small jerry can and vrooooom it fired up after priming a few times and cranking.
Needs a new muffler clamp and the GT steering wheel's horn is pooched (no power to the horns up front, passenger horn is DOA anyways), a good cleaning inside
and possably some steering work... just driving it home (2 blocks) I noticed that it wonders a bit... maybe its just me?
And the gas petal is really friggin stiff like there's two springs on the throttle linkage or something.
No biggie. Should be a fun toy
