    Oil on hoses mystery.

    I blew air for a bit in to a balled up paper towl and didn't see any specs or anything. Perhaps I should let it go a lot longer though. I just held it on for may be a minute. I let the water out about a week before discovering this issue. But tbh I had not let the water out for a long time...

    Oil on hoses mystery.

    Thanks Renton. Yikes! I 100% was meaning to put up the details on the compressor and messed up there. Its an Ingersoll Rand SS5L5 Single Phase I got back in 2011. I've only popped the cap off and stuck my pinky in there. I haven't dug any further than that. Edit: The spools are Flexzilla...

    Oil on hoses mystery.

    I have a pretty big system. Ingersol Rand going to 4 Flexzilla spools. No oil is being purposly introduced. Regulator only. Very recently I noticed a very clear oil all over the lines on the spool. Honestly all 4 spools to some degree, some more than others. Its a "glaze" of it. Also its...

    Spiders in my shop

    I'm recently very interested in this. I was wondering if people often fog-machine their garage to look for leaks or if there are companies to deal with this - I get a lot of spider webs etc... but thats not the part that is bothering me. Something is shitting little white poops all over the...

    Vent window division channel guides

    Funny seeing this as a top post coming here for first time in a while - I can't wait for the new better repros (that are apparently in the works). The straight ones offered right now are not so good. I have them on my 68 440 Sedan and the windows are not easy to roll up and down, especially at...

    1968 Coronet 440 2D Sedan(Post) - Windows hard to open when door closed.

    Too busy to do a good post with photos right now but with investigation we figured some things out. 440/Bee workarounds I saw that the seal is quite different. So what we did was adjust everything a bit like the glass placement etc... overall adjustments. but the big one i think is gluing the...

    1968 Coronet 440 2D Sedan(Post) - Windows hard to open when door closed.

    Focusing on this this week. We are still looking for the best solution. One thing somebody mentioned was if things look proper in my image in the first place. I am currently trying to find pics/videos of the car as it was. The car has new doors and all kinds of work done. So i'm looking at...

    1968 Coronet 440 2D Sedan(Post) - Windows hard to open when door closed.

    Thanks guy! PearlJam: I will talk to him about this. If i recall when I was told about this the worry was that to change it to work better on the back (where the glass rubs on the rubber) we would lose a nice seal on the front. The whole system feels really tight and nice. but feels like the...

    1968 Coronet 440 2D Sedan(Post) - Windows hard to open when door closed.

    We are running in to an issue where both the driver and passenger door windows are very hard to crank down while doors closed. The main culprit is the soft spongy rubber replacement and the window drags hard on it as it comes down. The seal is really nice (but may be too tight?). The car has...

    68 Coronet 440 HT Rear glass interior lower trim problem.

    Hi. We are having difficulties understanding the rear inside lower window trim. I have an image helping to illustrate whats going on. We bought new trim and had the glass professionally installed and now we are not sure how to get this on. From what we can tell it has a section that presses...

    Trying to find 15x12 wheels.

    I am looking for 15x12 wheels with very little backspacing. 5 on 4.5. The rear end will be cut to fit the wheels and I am looking for a deep rim. What is the lowest backspace I would expect on a 15x12? What should I be looking for? I am having trouble finding what I am looking for...

    Autobody - Painting in the Raleigh NC area

    I am looking for recommendations or info for good autobody/painting preferably in the Raliegh North Carolina area (can be a ways out if it is worth it) I realize a good place can be really hard to come by. The situation is a 68 Coronet body in white. So it would be already primed/undercoated...
