  1. If ya let MMO sit in the combustion chamber long enough, it'll probably get into the crankcase...so whatever the instructions say to add to crankcase, put half in the engine oil and the other half in the combustion chambers, and let it sit for a couple of weeks...then spin the motor with ignition off to work whatever fluid remains along the cylinder walls, then see if engine will start.
  2. MMO in the crankcase oil could be a magical experience...follow the instructions, **abracadabra** problem solved
  3. That contraption does not look familiar, maybe it was an aftermarket kit that could be had at Western Auto or JC Whitney back in the day. The original drum brakes suffered in performance if they were not adjusted correctly...this doohickie might be trying to compensate for that, kinda like turning up the heat on an arc welder rather than cleaning contamination from the base materials.
  4. vacuum brake assist was not an option on the B-series...I'd definitely like to see that setup to figure out where it came from, who knows what all has been done to customize that buggy over the last 7+ decades

  11. additional information - service station oil change interval

  15. Whenever a control linkage is involved, ya verify if the desired function works before focusing on linkage adjustments. If the transmission can be shifted into reverse without the linkage, then reconnect the linkage and see what the difference in shifter arms is...the linkage may be bent, changing its motion geometry so that the shifter arm is not functioning properly. additional information - Fluid Drive setup The linkage in this Fluid Drive setup has extra steel welded into it, presumably to stiffen this long linkage for better gear engagement.

  17. Sometimes them combustion chamber imperfections can fill up with carbon, kinda like a scab on an open wound...not the best sealing surface for piston rings, but can substantially reduce blowby enough that the extra oil changes per year would still be cheaper than extra machining, and with less downtime

  19. Can the transmission be shifted into reverse with the shifter arms atop the transmission instead of the shifter linkage?
