Disconnect both heater hoses and attach the one going into the heater ( with a new longer hose ) to the place the heater out side hose goes directly into the engine at the back of the engine
Keep a smooth flow to the new hose - no kinks

has anybody installed Jamco lowering suspension?????
I got the 3" lowering kit from them as well however Imnhavig problem with the rear suspension!
The shorter coil is ok BUT the shock that Jamco sent me is literally the same Monroe shock that I had installed previously and it is too long to close the coil, I mean when I'll install it and lower the jack the compressed coil opens up and comes out!
Of course it would be fine if I put the wheel back on and put the car down but I… Continue

So I've started a big project on one of my DeVils. I'm going to replace the suspension with Jamco 3" dropped kit!
Since my rear differential has a leak, I've dcided to take the whole end out and replace the seal along with the gasket! So far it's been a pain with the pinion seal and now with the pinion r flendge that did not go all the way in!
My question is - does anybody know how much fluid does rear differential take???
Shop manuals does NOT specify the amount of the fluid… Continue

Hello
Anyone have a decent radiator and shrouds and hardware for a 1964 Cadillac deville. I have an alum. radiator and I'm deciding on to fix it or back to the original one. If I fix it I won't need parts.
Thanks

I am happy to report that I have successfully replaced the Fresh Air/Recirc door actuator that is located on the blower box-and have done so without having to remove the blower box. I did it by taking out the glove box and attacking it from the back. It took several days, LOTS of patience and some band-aids, but it is done.
