Hey 283 man, I noticed your e85 statement. Soon I hope when I have more time, I am going to voice my findings with ethanol fuels. In...
True, if they were built the way they SHOULD be..................they would all be stainless steel. Delorean had part of it right............
Pacer!!!??? Was that not a freakin terrarium on wheels?
I always disconnect, even on older stuff. When a mechanic even TOUCHES the computer in your car, he or she is supposed to use a ground strap...
Back to Johan, very sorry to hear of your troubles. If your weather is like ours, it is snowing today and time to think about putting the truck in...
Well...............one thing about the Chrysler stuff from the K car era...........they were very easy to work on, lots of room under the hood....
I agree.......700-r4 is the answer. Buy a 90-96 Chevy Caprice that runs good, parts it out and keep the tranny..........you'll have your overdrive...

Not really hard at all. If you are doing an older small block chevy, the book 'HOW TO HOT ROD SMALL BLOCK CHEVYS' is a good place to start. Book...

Sounds like you may have 2 problems............worn shifter and something else. Does it make noise only when you are shifting? Noise no matter...
While pondering your rattling noise.....I remembered something that happened in my flatbed truck once. For some odd reason the input shaft would...
I should have been more detailed. I meant to pull the side cover off of the transmission, sorry about that. And........if working on the column,...
