    Reliable starter relay

    This is my old starter relay, it's a 4 wire version. In my case the contacts failed in the closed position. Car would not stop cranking over unless I disco'd the battery cable.

    Broken valve cover bolt.

    I agree, use a left hand drill. Sometimes the drill will get most of the way through the broken bolt, then the old threads will give way and the bolt will start to rotate.

    Glove box lock install

    1) Make sure the latch on the grey part is closed, as if the glovebox was shut and latched. 2) Insert the key into the new lock all the way. 3) Slide the new lock into the grey latch mechanism as far as it will go. 4) Remove the key from the lock. 5) Depress the tab shown on the far left in...

    Petcock leaking

    Assuming it's NPT, you could try swapping it out with a pipe plug and see if the leak remains.
