Hello Guys! Are you ready for this?
My mechanic doesn't want to dig into the engine unless he gets confirmation that the valve lifters are SOLID. They are, right?
And how about valve clearances. I am stuck at the office and do not have my manuals about me-- would like to get info to him ASAP.
He has a little bit of a case. He worked on my 51 Packard 300 which, as he found out, has hydraulic lifters which the more pedestrian models did not have.
Best to you, and hope someone with a manual is out there.
This is for "Uncle Ernie", my 46 Dodge Buisnessman's Coupe. I can just see it so many years ago, with a turtle full of vacuum cleaners and a hot shot salesman travelling the Great Southwest.....
