Tried playing around with a section of 0-gauge ground wire and wasn't able to make anything work better (or worse.) Was at my starter rebuilders...
Starter grounds through the mounting bolts. Hard for that to be bad. Battery terminal and ring are clean but I'll check the block end and see...
Alright, so my early '70s 460 is a pretty mild build but the stock starter (Lester 3152) has a lot of problems turning it over when slow. It...
I'd sully that back seat. Solo.
I'd bet that pirtek could make one for you for a few bucks.
I don't know enough to be able to tell what's going on. But the craftsmanship is very nice!
Zombie thread. First I've seen it, though. And I'm at the other end of the state from everyone else represented here. Exit 1, I94.
There's cold storage all over the twin cities for dirt cheap. It doesn't sound like you want to do the work to find some, but I usually pay for...
Should have said it, then. Because there's at least 3 people here that told you to bed in your pads correctly that you didn't respond to. I...
This will solve your problem and not require you to take anything else apart. Not sure why you wouldn't be listening to these people.....
Most of the states are trying to crack down really hard on these. The police cameras are now scanning/logging every tag that they see and it...
FWIW, spend the money on the original master. I've put in 3 "modern" ones now and still can't get them to move enough fluid for those big brakes.
I fully approve of your taste. Inside and out is amazing.
Sold?
Was going to go but a friend told me it was pointless if you weren't there by 8am -- and that just isn't my Sunday style. For future...
Friend of mine paints in his shop with a wood stove. When he's done cleaning the gun, opens up the door and sort of throws any left over naptha...
Well, first I hooked up my bleed lines and bent them to return back into the reservoir. Pumped about 25 times and didn't get any fluid. Pulled...
Nope. Brand new. The new one was only $4 more than the rebuilt so I thought I would be safe. Sent from my DROID device using the TJJ mobile app
Well finally had a chance to tinker and the new master from NAPA appears bad. Pumped it on my bench at least 100 times and no fluid coming out....
So how do you make the MDF plate? I just so happen to have a shop full of laser cutting/engraving equipment so I could make these mold plates all...
What did you make the plug out of?
NAPA MBI RH01K is $55. Is that right?!
The wheel cylinders are all new, but how can I tell if they are the "improved" or the "old" style? When I compared them to the old ones they...
Mart -- I've looked all over. Plenty of 1.25" bores but they are all for disc/drum systems. Thanks for checking it out, though! The 1.125"...
Original was 1.25" but I've been unable to locate a 1.25" replacement that is drum/drum. Sent from my DROID device using the TJJ mobile app
Unfortunately, only had a plug for 1 of the holes. The other one is a different size.
$5? I'll be there!
Pedal ratio is the same. The M/C seems to be bottoming out and right when the pedal hits the floor I can see the bracket ever so slightly...
My 3800 has spent its whole life in MN. No rust anywhere except for the cab corners which are gone. Keep us up to date on this one! Sent from my...
CurbFeeler..... You were one of the helpful ones. Mostly. At least it was obvious that you went to some effort to help instead of just coming in...
