I'm thinking about buying another 1st gen but the guy says its been sitting for about 6 years so I'm thinking I'm gonna need to replace the fuel tank (or at least clean it out) and replace the fuel lines. He says its also gonna need a carb rebuild.

the cheap rebuilt kit is not worth your time.

paper gaskets - needles that stick- pins that are weak

Autozone has Sorensen kits $30

That sounds relatively inexpensive to me. Does it have relatively good instructions? Any advice as far as the fuel system goes?
