NOS brand new fuel filter for 1957-1958 Corvettes with Fuel Injection.  Also fits the rare Pontiac Fuel Injection of those same years.

Never used or installed, still-in-the-box AC brand filter #GF130 or also known as #854386.

As obvious in the photos, the original large O-ring has hardened and cracked/broken. 

The small O-ring installed on the filter's top looks fine, but I would always suggest replacing rubber parts that are this old.

Note the small crack in the flange at the opening.  I've seen this before on these filters, and I don't believe that it is any real problem with function, but please be aware of it before purchasing.

Instructions are faded but completely legible (see photo).  Box is shopworn and has handwritten note from a parts counter person mentioned some applications.

2012 Honda Civic faces limited recall for possible fuel leak

Fri, 20 May 2011

Honda is recalling 1,156 copies of the redesigned 2012 Civic because of a potential fuel leak. A mechanical seal in the fuel line on some vehicles was misplaced during assembly, leaving a gap where two segments of pipe attach and allowing for the potential of leakage. No injuries or fires have been reported in relation to the glitch, and most of the affected vehicles are still in inventory and will be fixed before going up for sale.

Ownership costs of traditional versus alternative fuel vehicles

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As gas prices remain high, and an increasing number of automakers roll out plug-in hybrid cars and full-electric vehicles, it's becoming easier to be tantalized with the idea of driving right past the gas station and simply "plugging in." The debate ensues when it comes to cost: These alternative fuel vehicles mean a larger outlay of cash at the onset, but the long-term fuel savings could make the purchase worthwhile. To help straighten out this numbers game, we use the Department of Energy's Vehicle Cost Calculator to compare alternative fuel vehicles with their gasoline-only counterparts. For each scenario, we assumed that our hypothetical owner was able to get the full $7,500 federal tax credit and a $2,500 state tax credit, such as is available in California.

Aston Martin AM310 makes a quiet debut at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este

Tue, 29 May 2012

The Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este is more than a celebration of classic automotive design. It's also a great opportunity to view cutting-edge concept vehicles. This year's event saw the debut of the BMW Zagato coupe concept, and the Alfa Romeo 4C concept took home the concours' coveted “Design Award for Concept Cars & Prototypes.” You'd never know it based on the official coverage (or lack thereof), but Aston Martin also unveiled a concept at the concours.
