I am working on neighbors 961, had not run in a while, just fixing up little things, parts are about $700.
Big items:
Proof meter and cable bad.
Fuel system gunked up
Gas tank sender and gauge bad
Belts were under width and hard
All wiring was torn off and missing
Block and radiator gunked up
Starter needed bushings and brushes
Valve cover leaking, gasket was like hardboard
Power steering hose had been leaking on distributor, cleaned and changed components
Note:
I found a complete gauge set with tank sender on this site, will install when it comes in
Good news:
Engine has good oil pressure and runs good.
Clutch seems good
Alternator charges good
Battery seems good
