Exactly!
And I think I know where you're coming from on gauges. GM does their gauge setup different, and something from the 70's, yeah that probably would have oil or something in it.
So... I spent today using a hacksaw to cut off a new tailpipe over at Parts galore, then got home and used my Dremel to remove the old pipe. Attached is a picture of the old muffler and tail pipe... where you can see my attempts to quiet it down long enough to get the money and time needed to fix it.
New tailpipe came from a 98 Dakota, so it doesn't perfectly match up but I can work with it. It's the right size for the new muffler which is the most important thing. Putting on the new exhaust tomorrow!
Also, seems like I might just need to replace an O ring or some kind of sealing ring to fix the power steering leak, so I'll probably do that tomorrow as well.
Also went online and found out how to reset the computer, so I'll see if that has any effect on acceleration.
