"Thanks Jason!
Actually this is mentioned in Owner’s Manual page 37 but there is no photo.
I always open the cap with right hand and try to fit that to RIGHT SIDE vertically between the door and the chrome frame but usually it does not…"
"Factory Shop Manual is your best friend.
You need to remove the upper stoppers of the windows, then lift the window a bit higher than usual limit, and you can open the screws which hold the chrom trims in place."
"Hi,
you need to put 2 o-rings to waterpump. Some people use gasket sealer there as well."
"balancer not yet in place so you can see the seal saver there"
"It would also be interesting to know where rear suspension "standing height" is at. Here is the Help Page for standing height: Click Here.
Note your car should fall between 5 13/16" and 6 9/16" per measurement procedure."
"No, I have not changed them. HD springs is a good idea."
"Have you replaced coil springs and did you go with the Heavy Duty version? I used the HD springs way back and they seem to support pretty well even with 2 or 3 adults in the back."
"Thanks. I think situations when there are several persons sitting on the rear seat. Rear end is then sagging and needs some extra strength to keep the ride height correct. I have used Monroe MaxAir shocks in 66 and 71 Cadillacs succesfully but can…"

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments 1 Like

In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
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?
