Does anyone have any good pics of the Hydramatic linkage? I'm trying to adjust the linkage per the shop manual. I have found that my manual rod is maxed out on adjustment which will not allow me to adjust it correctly. I suspect the manual lever is bent but I don't want to experiment with bending it until I know for sure what it should look like. The figures in the shop manual don't really help me determine what the lever should look like. Here's a pic of mine. The transmission is in park in the pic.

The lever is up side down in the bracket. Reposition the tab 180 deg and install it into the lever.

Yep. You are correct. I eventually figured that out. It's all good now. This started out as a NSS adjustment project. My reverse lights stayed on in Low too. After I adjusted the linkage I could then adjust the NSS. Reverse lights are good now but the NSS still leaks vacuum going from Dr to N. It's fine going from P->N->Dr, there is no vacuum leak but not so going the other direction. From Dr to N is leaks vacuum then going into P holds vacuum again.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

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!

Who rebuilds original AC  accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year ,  There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A    What  is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

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…
