Im pretty sure its in need of a bit of wiring. The story is its been sitting since 2002 and now that I have her running the dash lights are all off and none of the idiot lights are workjing including the check engine light. She is also running rough. So far I have replaced the injector did a tune up and oil change, and changed out the fuses. Also she has a leak in the clutch system somewhere. Bill

Running and dash lights are on the same circuit. Check your fuses

Seriously? Modesto is 84 miles closer to Oregon than it is to Mexico! So how is anything south of marysville in southern California?

I would differ with that opinion.

From Wikipedia:
"Southern California" is not a formal geographic designation and definitions of what constitutes Southern California vary. Geographically, California's north-south midway point lies at around 37° latitude, near San Francisco; however this does not coincide with popular use of the term. When the state is divided into two areas (Northern and Southern California) the term "Southern California" usually refers to the ten southern-most counties of the state. This definition coincides neatly with the county lines at 35° 47′ 28″ north latitude which forms the northern borders of San Luis Obispo, Kern, and San Bernardino counties. Another definition for Southern California uses the Tehachapi Mountains as the northern boundary.

Now that I can believe. Bill

That is about right. However some people might limp Bakersfield in there too. Generally when we refer to SoCal it is the sprawling urban area down there south of the Grapevine

Lol, if you check a map marysville is in the top, oh say 25% of California, that would make 75% of the state southern California. Math skillz?
