    Marvel mystery oil did not help, we are now running 100 LL airplane fuel in all cars because ethanol melts tank treatments...maybe the fuel is too clean??

    no numbers now what?

    The frame numbers are not visable because the frame welting, splash aprons and body are over them, if you take these off and can see frame where body sat the numbers can be recovered with a acid/electrolysis process the state patrol uses in Washington state..I have had them do it in past..
