If it is a SP100 that switch is a little Tricky to reset. It is actualy a rocker switch with very little movement. Play with it a little and I...
The motor fires on each cylinder on the second time it reaches top dead center or the second revolution of the crank in theroy. Advancing the...
If it is a #3310 carb, it never had a squirter in the secondary chamber. It should also have a big vacumn diaphram mounted on one side of the carb.
If the part number is 3310 that is not a double pumper even though it does have the big fuel bowl and external float adjustments. It is a vacumn...
Just take it back to place you bought it. If it was a welding supply, bet it won't be the first time they saw a bad spool and they should replace...
I bought several spools of wire from a salvage place several years ago at a "Good" price and it did the same thing. Several of the rolls I was...
Sorry if the scans are not real clear but for the record: these charts clearly show the shocks being installed with more extension distance.
I want to thank those the wrote here about their "can never be bought" Items. Especially those guys who have had their rides since the 50's. I am...
Bottom line is that the shock you mentioned only has a total travel of 2" so if your suspension has a total travel of 4" then the shock is too short.
You actually need more extension length than compression. The shock length is also determined the total distance the suspension travels so a shock...
I think I would be looking at the brake adjustment and the quaility of the flex hoses. Are the brake flex hoses new or used? I have seen plenty of...
I say looking at the storm bird(radaitor Cap ) it is a 1928 Pontiac. Never saw a GM car with 3 bumper rails .
The three grove balancers were on 292 motors but I am not sure if they are still available at the dealer.
HA!HA! Grits I'm gonna be hitt'n the parking lots in the morning too! I was a Star-Telegram paperboy growing up here in the 60's in Texas and...
Chevy heads won't fit. A set of w-30 heads off a 455 are really good. A lot of performance can be gain by converting the heads to screw in studs...
Looks like to me if when you cut the coils, what ever amount the car dropped, if you raised the shock tower the equal amount,you would not need to...
Happy Birthday and Thanks for all your hard work !
SEND the ISKY Timing Gear Set that I paid you for in DECEMBER. I know you said you had some family problems come up??? ok , now your going to...
Do you really think you could build that car( steel body,headlights,paint,upholstry,top) for less money??
If the gentleman was talking about trucks did he forget about the 80's and 90's Chevy trucks or maybe the conspiracy is those were not really...
Did any body ever use Kondor by PPG?
I think the issue here is that even though the 2 part primers will bond to factory lacquer finishes but the factory lacquer primer/finishes will...
Tim, I agree PPG single stage is great and far less primer surface preparation and uncompairable durability and repair ease
I personally stay away from Imron because of the early day versions being Deadly. This may not be true now days but the early stuff required air...
I believe at one time Nason Black was the blackest of blacks ansd I worked for a guy who always wanted to use RM #141 mixing base.As Far as the...
I have been using lacquer paints since 1959 and although I still think there is not a finer looking paint job when done to perfection, especially...
looks good so far keep it coming

Your are right my brain and fingers are not connected and I should have left the Y off. UJ12 is the right one
Sorry I had to do some editing there because the first time I posted it the links would not work. Paul
