    Mystery brake issue.

    1969 NY, front disc / rear drum. A while back, I replaced the rear brake hose which was restricted due to age. Not long after, one wheel cylinder started leaking, so I replaced them both (they were severely corroded on the inside). What was weird is that the lines bled, but they bled slowly...

    Replacing or rebuilding a Federal PS pump.

    Greetings. I have a Federal pump on my '69 NY (original 440 with only 60K) which is slowly crapping out. It's leaking slightly from the seal behind the pulley, and the shaft has some end play (very little, but you can hear it even with the belt still on). The leak is minor now, but I'm sure...

    Centering the steering wheel.

    Greetings, folks . I have a '69 NY that rolls straight down the road and doesn't wander, but the steering wheel is a bit off to the left. The car does not need a complete alignment, but I would like to center the steering wheel if I could. Is it possible to do this simply by moving one of the...
