warren.. you need to get some balls. :<) float balls that is, of course.. of all the parts vans ive had come and go, i've never parted out a 88... so it may be 89-91 ..ive got two '89 parts vans here, and they both have the float ball...and two '87 parts vans, and they dont have the float ball.. heres the part number, so you can check if you've got balls.. 251 201 129A for the one w/ the float ball. number is stamped into the neck ..should be visible w/ a flashlight..
