Fuel pump check valve and other sundry items

[Jay Kempf]

Thanks for the vinegar idea. Hope it works. I would guess it is mild citric
acid that is the active ingredient. Assuming short enough dwell time and
quickly flooding with a lot of clear water that might not damage the paint. 
 
Only a few things left to get now like brake bleeder valves and pads. I am
surprised at my local NAPA and all the Euro OEM stuff they have. Painting my
way to the finish line. After it is driveable and I can get it through
inspection I'll worry about the exterior cosmetics. I can get a matching
pint and go at it. From what I have been reading this car is not clear
coated with modern urethane. Sounds like it is enamel or acrylic.

Jay,
 
Glad to hear you are making progress, always fun to get it back together and
go for a drive!!
 
Use Vinegar to remove the concrete. That works well, don't know why, but it
does.

 Any ideas how to
remove concrete bits? Thoughts I have had are a vibrating engraver to
explode the chips off the surface, muriatic acid, tapping with hammers to
break it up... Nothing has been what I would say, effective as yet.
