I have a related question. What happens if a Booster meant for discs is used on an all drum system? Just curious! Lindsay

The rear port on the master cylinder should be connected to the front brakes and the front to the rear. The factory system with 4 drums and dual master cylinder does not use a proportioning valve. It does use a safety switch which is used to control a warning light on the dash in case of a loss...

Center cap turns counter-clockwise and horn ring is held by three philips head screws. Each screw has a plastic spacer and they also hold the horn switch. Hope this helps. Lindsay

Has anyone solved the inegma? Perhaps should check with the FABO folk. Just an idea. LC

If there has been any possible leakage at the terminal/boots, the boots could have carbon tracks in them. In this case, replacing plugs and cap could lead to continued leakage and carbon tracks on the new plugs/cap. Then new wires could become carbon tracked from the plugs/cap. I would replace...

This is the third time I have begun a response to this Horrific situation. What has happened to Craig is without excuse. It seems to me that (like in so many instances) there is no way to "make it right". I do hope that Those responsable will be punished. Craig needs compensation for the...

The problem here in Canada is the confusion beteeen US measure, Imperial measure and Metric measure. The FSM says 4 US quarts in the oil pan plus 1 US quart in the filter OR 3.25 Imp quarts in the pan plus 0.75 Imp quarts in the filter. This equals 3.79 liters in the pan and 0.94 liters in the...

What car? What Engine/trans? What starter? Lindsay

Never mind! You need a /6!!

Never mind! It doesn't matter!! Lindsay

All good! It isn't those who make mistakes that worry me. It is those who refuse to admit it! LC

Sorry to disagree, but I'm sure SB's are clockwise and B/RB's are counterclockwise. Other than that, good info, Loadrunner. Lindsay

The title of the thread speaks volumes! You "Painted Your First Car". In the first place, how many of us have attempted this, and what were the results? Secondly, you are without doubt your own worst critic. Thirdly, most (if not all) of the beautiful "flawless" paint jobs we see have been done...

I have been using a solid state limiter this year. It works very well, however the old electro-mechanical unit provided an initial pulse of 12 volts to the gauges which allowed the gauges to rise faster. The electronic unit is slower to respond, but will not fry the gauges if it fails. I bought...

I'm forced to use corn fed premium here at $1.72 per liter or $6.91 per US gallon.Tthose prices are in Canadian $, so cheaper in USD, but still I count "smiles per Gallon" and keep on going! Lindsay

I am having this problem also. It began abruptly when I was forced to use ethanol laced fuel. The idea of fuel siphoning/backflowing through a working mechanical fuel pump is next to impossible. A diaphragm pump contains two spring loaded check valves. Either of these will preclude any backflow...

So, now, what warranty does RA offer, and will they honor it? I will be interested to know how this turns out. Lindsay

You said the idler arm pivots up and down where it bolts into the frame. Unless I'm mistaken, the idler arm is held by a bolt through two ears welded to the frame passing through a bearing in the arm. Is the bolt tight, is it the correct size? You mentioned a new idler arm. Is it new, NOS or...

I repaced mne with the RTE unit. It apparently doed not need the condenser and is "safer". It works well, but does not move the gauges as quickly when the key is switched "on". My guess is that the old thermal unit gave full 12v until it warmed up and brought the gauges up faster, wnereas the...

Please clarify, for me, did the rubber insert fail or did the metal frame fail? I installed the rubber inserts from the Trico Classics in my OE frames and they look OK. Must admit, they have only been used once, for a very short time. I try to avoud rain too, but....... My reason for retaining...
