  1. Is it possible one of the wheel cylinders has the wrong bore?
  2. Normally your fan blade should be half in and half out of the fan shroud.
  3. I knew guys who deactivated their V864. They undid the high gear switch. My Fleetwood Brougham always worked perfectly so I never undid it.
  4. Operating on what 61 Polara said possible contaminated brake shoes. Swap front shoes right to left. Then see what happens.
  5. I have a 58 Edsel Pacer .It has the factory keys. The ignition and doors are one key and the trunk and glove box are another.
  6. I acquired this Pontiac Tissue Dispenser. NOS in box, but I don’t know what year and model it fits. Maybe someone here knows .GM
  7. A Chevy truck would be easier to restore and maintain because parts are readily available. The GMC has a lot of unique GMC only mechanical parts. They had their own engine,driveline and brakes etc. You might have trouble finding parts.
  8. You would put the gauge in the hole in the block where your present oil gauge is hooked up. The hole is probably down low on the block and not far from the oil pump.
  9. Did you hook up an accessory mechanical gauge to it to be sure it really is high?
  10. The bands can be adjusted on that transmission. Someone experienced with this can advise you on this.
  11. Does your pedal setup make a full stroke on the master cylinder? Does the pedal completely release so the mc piston all the way out?
  12. Do you mean the pedal holds after being pumped up? Then loses after being released and then being pressed again and needing to be pumped up again.
  13. This strikes me as a wrong parts combination. Wrong pistons or heads or just an incompatible combination. A wrong timing gear or camshaft. Maybe one of the offset keyed racing timing gearsets that has been installed wrong .
  14. Take off the adapter fittings and reinstall the original caps.
  15. Even if they are a genuine GM factory authorized accessory ?
  16. Are right and left the same? If so maybe 77-79 Bonneville.
  17. How old is "at least ten years" ? What is the build date on the tires ? To me a ten year old bias tire with no cracks would be fine . Twenty plus years might be another story.
  18. 60 Cadillac convertible , 65 Impala non SS, 64 Impala non SS.
  19. My question was for Bryan. Was the intake or engine changed or maybe a four barrel adapter installed ? I wasn't looking for a Lincoln history lesson.
  20. 60 Lincolns came with an Autolite two barrel carburator. Was the intake or engine changed?
  21. My friend had an 87 Eagle. The left rear axle snapped and wheel and brake drum rolled down the street. The car had numerous other problems but that was the most memorable .
  22. I had a 58 Edsel for years. The E400 is the engine's torque rating. It is 361 cubic inch. It is a Ford FE V8 352 bored .060 over. The only engine in the 58 Ranger,Pacer and wagon is the 361 four barrel with high compression and hydraulic lifters.
