My 1964 429 has a loose water pump pulley. I have taken everything apart four times and still cannot get it to seat tight against the water pump. The shaft on the water pump is still tight with no play. I fear this vibration will ruin the bearings if I do not get this fixed. I am not driving this car until it gets repaired. The four bolts go through the fan blade, spacer , and pulley. They will not go any tighter, yet still the pulley has lots of play. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for any help.

Nothing was replaced, just noticed play in the water pump pulley. It is a non-ac car. Thanks for your advice. Will keep you posted.

I noticed this issue at the end of last summer/fall, but it seems to be getting worse as I have begun driving for the season again. When I drive the car and get everything good and warmed up, if I…Continue

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns.
There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
