Well, I tried John's suggestion about taking the hot wire connection apart to clean it, but it seemed like I would destroy the whole works before it would come apart.....so I took Rich's suggestion, and sent it off to John Wolf & Company in Willoughby OH for restoration. Got it back today and wow.....it looks like new....

Hooked it up in the trunk (as I detailed in a previous post in this thread) and it works perfectly. And whaddayaknow, the ground wire is long enough to connect to the proper location on the car. They also reused the original ground wire terminal end so the appearance is as close to OEM as possible. Now all I need to do is order a 'sock' type filter for the end that goes in the tank and it will be ready to go back in the tank.
