    Ideas needed to help kill door rattles

    I put 80 mil Kilmat in both doors a year ago and was amazed at well it worked. I found that the pop rivet in the bracket that is attached to the lower end of the front glass track was very loose and that the little spot weld above it had failed allowing the bracket to flop around on the post...

    Mystery rattle help

The problem was that I followed the directions included with the kit that were verbal only (no dwgs or pictures) and it didn't work... or I interpreted them incorrectly which at my age is a distinct...

    Remote oil filter question

    I'm running a remote oil filter set up on my 496 stroker and I have discovered that the filter does not get hot or really even very warm to the touch after cruising around the neighborhood for thirty minutes or so. I know that oil is going through it and it is plumed correctly so wondering why...
