  1. Those of us who have switched from the original 5” x 13” steel wheels and 185 70 13 tires to 15” Panasports or similar with lower profile wider rubber that still fits under stock fenders and then switched from the original school bus steering wheels to a 13” Momo have also experienced the arm wrestling of the wheel at low speeds (without power steering). Any relatively simple solutions to easing the amount of force required to turn these little gems at low speed (or parking)?
  2. Have been considering rubber mount between fuel pump bracket and engine compartment panel. Haven't found quieter pump (Carter). People who have pump in trunk says noise still there, just behind you now. Have louder muffler. Drive faster than I probably should. Will go with pads next. Using later E21 fuel pump underbody is $$ option. Go back to original mechanical pump. Upgraded when went to 2bbl Weber as suggested. Not sure it needs it.
  3. Do you have any data on how much noise reduction is attributable to the pads in front? I have a nopisy electric fuel pump I'm trying to quiet down

    The seats and steering wheel pictured are not for sale by me, from this car. They are available from Scat Procar and Momo. The original seats and steering wheel were sold when I replaced them with the items shown. Regards, corschco

    I own 1566789, the next one on the assembly line and bought it new in Glendale California. Amazing what fates these 2 "siblings" encountered. Mine is an old friend. Not dumped out in the desert.
