Joe i feel your pain. Had mine all dialed in for a fresh dyno. I went and filled up with fuel. Went 3 miles and the slave cylinder went out. Drove home with no way to disengage the clutch. Hit every light red. All 5 of them plus the stop signs.
On top of that the brakes went out on my pickup yesterday. I tear into it and the part jokey gave me a right when i needed a left.

Ditto, time is running out. Pretty soon there won't be many SQs around and when they are gone so are the parts to keep the few alive.

Finally got her tuned and kinks worked out except the fuel sending unit. Gas gauge is eradic, stays on full until 1/8 of a tank then drops to empty? How involved is it to replace or fix? Any insight would be greatly appreciated, if I can do this myself and get the car back home sooner that would be awesome!!!

Remove all the guff from your trunk, and there is an inspection panel glued down in middle of the spare wheel well. You can (according to the FSM) get the sendout unit out through that, although when I did mine I dropper the whole tank, as I didn't know the inspection panel was there!
Anyway, once you get the sender unit out, it's got a metal covers over the variable resistor, bend the metal tabs back to reveal the inside:
The coil of the variable resistor will probably require a careful clean up, if the tank hasn't been full for a very long time, it'll be a bit corroded. I used a fine brass brush and light pressure. Clean everything up, and make sure it's all making good electrical contact through it's range of motion, should solve your issues.

The shop got the sending unit out and found that one of the rods was bent and wanting to stay in "full" position so hopefully it will just be a little tweak and she'll be all done!!! If not, I'll bring her home and swap out a unit here with StarquestRescue. Thanks for the help.
