That answers another of my questions! Dropped the car in for a Valet the day I got it... it came back with the brake light on ... constantly... I know they can be a bit... energetic with the steam lance so they may have damaged a sensor. Also... handbrake does work on rear right wheel and I can't get the spikey wheel to move inside the housing... (you know what I mean... heheh) On the plus side, got the car running last night! Fuel line is working nicely! Thanks for all the help!

And I still need to figure out what you did with this engine, because it will pull up the dublin grade doing 80 in fifth. This little bugger hauls (well, for a non-turbo diesel) :) Actually, I swapped out the rear subframe with one from a gasser in a boneyard, and replaced the suspension links while I was at it. Oddly enough, most of my rust problems under the car went away with that. Now to deal with the body. Might have to keep an eye on that auction, though.
