Well, looks like number seventeen will be a '72 or '73 164. It's been sitting in someone's yard for four years. They think it drove in there. I'd rather drive it out than trailer it. I don't want to go crazy trying to make it run though, it's destiny is to only to sit on my Volvo farm with the other cars so it won't be so lonely.

I'm thinking ten gallons of premium to dilute whatever crap is in the tank, put in a battery and see if it will run. I'm completely unfamiliar with D-jet (164 injected is d-jet right?) Anyone have any other revival techniques I could perform in an hour or two? Any more time than that and it would be easier to fetch the car trailer.

Thanks!
