My '73 fastback is running better with it's replacement FI computer, however, I took it on a 20 mile drive the other day and there was smoke coming out of the air vents and rear wheel wells. It appears that both of the valve covers are leaking onto the heat exchangers. Upon further inspection, the pipe connecting the heat exchanger to the box under the rear seat is completely gone on the passenger side!! My heater channels have rusted out, so I'm not too worried about getting heat inside of the car at this point. I just want to get the engine to run as cool as possible without smoking. I could use a lead as to where I can get replacement valve cover gaskets and I'm still very interested in finding a new fuel tank sending unit as running out of gas is never fun!
