[1949 Roadmaster Stiff Shift Lever Question]

Are your trans mounts and thrust pad okay? I am no mech, but my mechanic had to replace my thrust pad when he worked over my dynaflow on my ‘50 Super. He said it was not lining up right.  A thought…

Could be that

[1949 Roadmaster Stiff Shift Lever Question]

WD40 is great for drying out wet electrical components .  WD stands for water displacement.  It won't lubricate for very long.  Once the WD 40 evaporates, It will be drier than was before.

  I know,  I know " I've been using WD 40 for years". Well, you've been using it wrong.  Unless you were spraying on wet electrical contacts or circuit boards. 

 

What you need is white lithium grease.

This same symptoms happened to mine a few years ago. Replace the fuel filter.  Poor fuel delivery can cause lean fuel mixture. Lean fuel mixture can cause backfiring and overheating.

good luck with your sale

Why would someone in Germany not have access to this site?

On another site , a fellow was looking for door panels for a ‘55 56R. I recommend this site. He said he didn’t have access to this site from Germany ....

Any of the Dexron are what to use.

For trans and power steering

I don't think there is a type "A" anymore...

How about we restore a Turnapull. This guy built some of the ugliest machinery on the face of the earth. But it got the job done. Often powered by GM's Detroit Diesels.

[Drivers Door Initials 1920's?]

About twenty-five years ago, my dad shows up driving a brand new Ford Explorer. Dad is very proud and wants to show it off to me.

It's a very nice car with leather seats and matching set of luggage.

Then I notice on the front door is a painted script "Eddie Bauer"

I ask Dad, "Who the hell is "Eddie Bauer" ? And why is his name on your car?

You should take it back and have it changed to "Joe Miller"

That was the first time I had ever heard of Eddie Bauer...

I was not suitably impressed

[Odd question sort of asked before.]

That's how I ended up with the Roadmaster.

It was Dad's car.

After he whittled his collection down, the Roadmaster is what was left.

When I changed the thermostat, I used a thin film of motor oil on that gasket, too.

Hi,

my name is Eric and I live in Switzerland. (Sorry for my poor English!)

Last year I had the great opportunity to purchase a beautiful Riviera '65, assembled by GM Swiss. Looks pretty well and is a very good driver (only one owner before me!). Still, there is a lot to do on it, but I have a lot of time to restore it step by step.... First thing will be the whole interior.

I hope to find a lot of good inspiration in this forum and salute all the Buick owners out there!

Greetings from Berne,

Eric

Well, your English is better than my German, French, Italian, or Romansh..

[Use sealer? Yes or no?]

I don't remember what we put on the timing chain gasket. It was forty years ago that we had it off.

On the fuel pump gasket, I use a thin coat of new motor oil.
