Hi, I'm hoping some of the other members here can chime in on this if they have experience with this. My convertible top motor burned out and while I was replacing it, I noticed the driver's side top cylinder was leaking. I ordered a new one and removed the current one and the bracket that attaches to it would not come off. It is held on with two philips head screws. One side came off with ease. The other completely stuck even after multiple shots of WD-40. Is one of the sides reverse…

On the drivers side on the front near the rad is a small steel box near wires going to the headlights, parking lights etc. It is warm all the time and clicking- even with the engine off and keys out. It looks like a transformer to me. Any ideas what is going on here?

Now that my girl has a new heater core and everything inside the dash looks good, I was wondering.....My AC is blowing cold air but noticed the Air Flow could be better. Does the Transducer control Fan Speed? Is my blower motor ready for replacement? I was also thinking of adding additional Radiator Cooling Fans to help the air flow through the condenser at idle.
Any opinions or options would be welcome.
Thanks

Hi Guys and Gals,
Can anyone please tell me the proper procedure for logging onto the CLC websites Self Starter Online. My general user name and password does not work and the gentleman who is responsible for this has ignored several email requests. He replied to my first question by simply asking me if I've received the email on July 1st? I have replied back to him 4 times with no response. "No I Have Not Received That Email".
Thanks all.
Lou

Hi Everyone, I just installed new reproduction 1964 Cadillac rear seat belts in my SDV. Will these old style seat belts work with a new child seat? Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Thought I would report back on my latest investment in my "rolling bank account". I finally found someone with knowledge of these old rigs that actually cares about whether things are right when they leave his shop
The original radiator had some green spots in it and some of the fins were starting to separate. It wasn't leaking yet, but figured it was just a matter of time. After considering re-coring the original or replacing, I opted to replace. Since I'm not "restoring" the car,…

Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! 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…

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?
