Re: Sealed beam question

It was no problem at all actually. They had them in stock. The one they suggested the first time was the correct one. I ordered one today and it will arrive tomorrow.

Sealed beam question

My driver side left sealed beam light went black. At the shop where I get my parts they claim that this light consist of both high and low beam?? Aren´t the outer lights low beam and the inner high beam? Hope you understand what I´m trying to explain!

Re: Idle screw?

That was what i didn´t understand, that fast idle speed ment Cold speed (Engine Cold?). I tried the fast idle speed screw but nothing happened?? and Went on for the other one. I adjusted it so the idle was slightly higher but after been driving for 25 min it was way to high.

One Winner in battery best in test was the Banner Powerbull a battery I never Heard of from Austria. It says only for cars from 1997?? Bosch, Tudor and Varta was also p...

Re: Need new battery

What kind of battery do you think will suite a "summercar" the most. Mine is sitting during the winter at least 5 months a year. Even at summertime the car can be sitting for 2-3 weeks depending on weather. I often tend to forget to connect my tricklecharger when the car sits for a couple ...

Small garage vs 1977 Town car

Don´t do what i did yesterday :shifty: I got to far to the right entering my garage and when I tried to correct it I got even more stuck. I decided not to try anymore and solve it in another way. My idea was to raise it on two jackstands and push the car to the left. When I raised the side by the pi...

New muffler install

It was a while ago since I was here. Since then I replaced the stock muffler with a 50 series Flowmaster Delta force. I gutted the cats and removed the resonator. It turned out ok but I´m still not really happy about the result. I wanted a much deeper and more rumbling sound and inside the car I can...

Re: Gasket between manifold and cat?

Ok! I'll probably try it next week. I will let you know what happens. Btw the idea is to remove the cats for better sound. I doubt that it will be enough though. If not im thinking a flowmaster delta flow 50 series.

Dan Szwarc wrote:They were not designed to be removed or separated. No gasket is a metal-to-metal interface. It usually only seals up when the parts are both brand new. After that, all bets are off.

Go ahead. Take yours apart and show us the gasket. ;-)
but there were no gasket?? Or did i misunderstood?
