[T3] Wiring Harness Needed (was RE: Faulty Fuel Pump)

[Dave Hall]

Obviously not a day to have a full tank of gas!

The kerb weight includes full tank of fuel, which would add around 60lbs.
Sometimes it includes a driver (nominally 75kg - I wish!).
That would add around 200lbs altogether if so.  Your 2160 lbs would come
within those figures if you had a few gallons of gas in the tank and some
tools, I guess.

The figures I've found for the Squareback is 2280lbs empty (kerb  weight,
includes fuel and oil I think), with the Sedan around 50lbs  lighter.


When I had my old 70 Squareback weighed, it was 2160lbs (CAT  scales). I had
to do this, because the lady at the Secretary of  State (DMV) used the wrong
column for it's weight category, and was going  to charge me 15 bucks more
per year to register it (instead of the normal  29 per year). :O In our
state, older vehicles (from the 70's and  earlier) are assessed their fees
by weight, and they have a chart that  they go by. This chart is also used
for titling a vehicle too.
