Ok, I am asking for help for some of the "must do's on my list as I am running out of time to do the research find the answers or relying on my memory, which is not working well now that I haven't worked on a vehicle of this era in a few years.
I have tried to add what problems I have run into performing the tasks and their solutions I have used. If I had more tools and equipment as others probably have access to would have made some answers easier. But all solutions I feel give everyone more power to help themselves and other if shared. I hope this info helps others.

I really would appreciate any input and if others have question on their project that relate to common task such as these, feel free to ask or comment.
