  1. You guys are so good! Transmission and clutch work are impossible without a lift. Jackstands? Weve all done it..but please dont. Archive this one. Great contibutions
  2. Almost certain that was a 218 car.. Once you "rod" it go all the way. But for sure get you a service manual for all necessary specs and diagrams
  3. Booger just got electric fuel pump. Starts like NOW. No need to pump the bjesus out of foot pedal. If you do youre sure to flood it
  4. All good points. Often I check mounting plate nuts for tightness And that gets a double gasket
  5. Bob you are are rock star. That's some skilled work
  6. Sorry to be a duffus, is that a progressive linkage? Or step down?
  7. the fuel line replacement is a great idea as well Your on top of it
  8. fuel pump got lazy on Booger. I added a electric inline fuel pump instead of messing with a replacement. Very happy with results an option to consider
  9. Search out Mike's carb. Rebuild kits are around 45$
  10. You can find a 10-150# 1/2" torque wrench for $45 at the orange store
  11. Use the impact wrench to snug things up, then finish going round the clock with tor-kay wrench
  12. OMG it's like Twilight Zone (You remember, right?) Stuff happens. As pretty as hub caps are they can hide danger. Hand it to Chrysler at least they did opposite threads on wheel bolts. 85 -90 ft lbs please
  13. Just added new fuel line and electric fuel pump. Man what a difference. Booger starts like NOW.
  14. Good point Ivan. Rear main seal and tranny leak can be cornfusing. Leaks arent the worst thing. youll figger it out with the pinky test in tranny
  15. Ivan I donk know wtf that wire was...it should not have been there. But good to see running temp is normal. Now lets get the cholestoral down
  16. Nothing wrong with it. Bump into it while it's running and your sweaty
  17. Who wouldnt love those results? Rough math sez 65mph at 2300 rpm in OD? what Im talkin bout
  18. Very impressive break down... And yes the 49 3.73 with an R10 skips right along at 70 mph (Wish I could find a R10)
  19. Wow lots of work there but doable when you seen other members replace floor pans. For the trunk lid start with French Lake Auto in Ana nadale MN
  20. 50 light years away I installed an R10 to a P18 and used a choke cable for OD. no solenoid. No issues. But I didnt have the Randy Rundle Tech book. If your interested in R10 ODs its a must have. Theres one on Ebay $22
  21. If my washing machine only worked that good..weird
  22. I suppose we need not worry about the simplicity of plain ol 30w motor oil anymore. Cuz ya cant find it. (lest not Yalmart no mo)
  23. Heres the thing 49. Back in 49.. Your car used 30w (probably detergent motor oil) and the 3 sp manual tranny was a no brainer 80-90w and the rear end as well. So lets over engineer everything and decide what worked then is no good now.
  24. Suicide doors? Um I'm no historian but I doubt that's vw. I'll take it
