Thanks for the info Keith. I know it needs at least the main pump but I was going to replace the whole unit (prepump-reservior-main pump) due to the damage and the fact that I want to only do this fix once. The only leery part I feeel is that I've heard that the CIS (?) fuel system for this make is finicky and that the OEM main pump (original to the 84's) had a defect. If I get one from a reputable (sp?) salvage yard how do I know this same problem won't come back to haunt me? I don't mind putting in some money into this thing for new parts if the general consensus is that it's worth it. I feel that the body is in good enough shape for the year but I just don't know if I'm looking at a money pit here. BTW the engine does turn over and all of the saprk plugs look fine and I'm going to do a compression test to see how it has held up. I have a haynes manual which leaves a little to be desired as far as illustrations/descriptions so I'll look into the bently manual. Thanks again for the help.
