What is the voltage?
Which part number did you use? 6000, 6084, or 658A? Measure the free height of the spring as well as the wire diameter.
That one wire on the Pside looks looped around and hitting the frame? Did you note mileage before drop off?After? 3 pedals? How old were the...
Did you verify voltage?
155/80 R15 24.8" 185/65 R15 24.4" 195/60 R15 24.2" These flares are usually used when switching to the larger 165/70 R10 19" on a mini. Probably...
Oh yes, Atkinson has been classic racing for years. He campaigns a '64 Falcon Sprint usually. It would be nice to see a hotrod at a track event.
DOGPILE!!! Part reason why the snout is so long is because of the ball bearing wheel bearing design, it needs TLC, it likes fresh grease. It...
Occasionally would get the wrench light on a '10 Escape hybrid, suspected it was the TB, known issue on 08/09 models. But that is proprietary...
Truck already has flared fenders, adding wider aftermarket flares would not take away from the look. Luckily the drifting crowd does so much...
Use welding cable, highly doubt he will ever use all 250A, also the alternator will not last long at peak. So #2 would probably suffice, however...
90s VAF Mazdas are easy, 1.6 is a good engine. Can always bewst these engines. Enkei RPF1!?! SWEET! Those are by far the lightest/cheapest wheels...
FWIW. There are three different MCs for this F bod. Manual Brakes 1" bore Power Brakes 1- ⅛" bore 4 Wheel disc 1- ⅛" bore Dunno. Tried bleeding...
As much as I love to rag on those calipers, I don't believe they are your issue. That particular MC is a bit of a bitch to bench bleed. Lots of...
Never has an image taken me somewhere, so fast, that I've never been to. iwasnteveninnamcat.gif Getting mighty powerful 1989 Street Machine...
Before yanking heads. Squirt oil in the sparkplug hole and see if it increases compression. That would point to cylinder/piston/rings issue. If no...
If you test it like points, see if it's a PI or PII model. PII will forgive you for leaving it on,PI will burn up. If unsure, hook everything up...
HAH! As soon as you said Fridge I immediately thought of the late 50s models. Neighbor was selling his 60 a decade or so ago. Always in the...
Because of time and crank angle. Most spark ignited engines operate at varying speeds and loads, so the timing must also be variable. This is to...
No. I've seen this stated many times, it's wrong. This will start the suspension on a camber losing curve. When a straight line can be drawn from...
Nope, also I kinda goofed this carb is AL, was looking at the pressure washer which has the green plastic carb. This carb just has linkage that...
Lower control arms that are level or at an upward angle(bj higher than pivot), tend to have bad roll centers and will not handle well. Also note...

Long post is long. My parents lawnmower will be the end of me... I rebuilt carb/engine/trans in my Fairmont when I was 17. I've instructed my...
You are keeping the stock drums and wheel cylinders correct? What was the size of the original MC bore? What is the size of the current 'flat...
Crumple up some aluminum foil, dunk it in some clean water, and start rubbing on the rusty chrome surfaces. As long as it's not peeling, it will...
Unless you have records, purchase the timing chain cassettes and head gaskets now. There's a reason those SOHC 4.0s are cheap. Not sure if...
These prop valves are usually called 'compensator' valves. As long as the linkage to it is not mangled and moves freely with suspension travel it...
Cleaned up a Schwinn a couple years ago. Most of the chrome was covered in a peppering of rust. Knurling on the S-6 rims was probably the hardest,...
4.3 in the roller cam TBI era were fairly potent little 6s. I would not be surprised if there was really any difference between a 88-92 4.3 700...
