I just found a Petrol 109 yesterday, BRG with a white top. It is originally from Canada so it is def not rust free, but I want it bad.

And whatever you do do NOT run it out of fuel.
If you do you will be in a world of hurt because there will be air in the fuel lines and you will need to get it out by bleeding them as well as the injector pump.
Not fun.
While a pain in the ***, it's not a huge deal. and you can get a couple of replacement fittings for the CAV pumps that make bleeding even easier.

Yeah you have to double clutch between 1 and 2 and I know about running out of gas in a diesel, my buddy did that with the a school bus on the way back from a game and it was a pain to fix on the side of the road with just a leatherman! Thanks again for all of the kind words and I will post more pics of the engine and such as soon as my tax refund gets here and I get it to my house!

Running out of gas with a diesel isn't a big deal. What really sucks is running out of diesel.

Nice! I am going to have to find generic names for everything such as fuel and such. I can't even keep my girlfriends names straight!
