I had the scout in a rental garage until the owner called to complain, "it's stinking up the entire house (it's really cool, I remember [in my day] ..., great color!)". In part this is due to 40 years of dirt and debris (and it helps that there's no catalytic converter), but mainly it's the smell of gasoline, which spills from a hole somewhere near the top of the left-side tank.
There's a switch on the dash to select between left and right tanks, but the fuel-gauge only displays the right side, and the sender (which sends the level to the gauge) is broken.
Step 1: repair/replace left-side tank, replace fuel filters (3), replace senders (2), new marine tank filler caps (2), and dual-sender circuit.
