I may actually have my yellow Fiero on the road by then, but unfortunately I have two appointments on that day, so I can't come.

I have used castor oil like you have on door seals and weather stripping with good results. I wanted to try something new. I don’t see any difference with silicone lubricant soaked in or the turtle wax product applied. Will use castor oil next.

Thank you very much for both. Now, where's my Geritol?

You might to try putting on some castor oil first then putting a synthetic product on to protect it. I used to put that on rubber door seals, the oil seemed to make the rubber a bit softer and made it swell a bit to seal better. However, I am mot a chemist nor did I stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

I have a spare tube and will try Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Tire shine on part of it and silicone spray on part. See what happens.

I've not seen any good products mentioned on any Fiero forums.

I used to work for a chemical company that made janitorial products.   We had a rubber mat cleaner preserver that did a great job on door mats.  Maybe Zep or Selig still offers that product.

It seems as if every air intake tube I have ever seen, including mine, appears dry and "sooty" when touched. Is there a good way to restore these and hopefully make them last a little longer?

I have two in my storage building that burned down.  Came off my cars.  Let me know if you find a place.  I'll call my niece who works at a U-Pull-It type yard and see what she can do.

They won't take them either. I've called a bunch of places, told them I have a shop, I have all the parts cars here, & even offered to give them the VINs. I have 6 or 7 to sell & need the money...
