Lmfao!

True story. I worked at an automotive machine shop, "Dennis" was dressing an engine, he broke off a bolt in the block and then broke off a tap in the block! Boss comes over says "I thought we agreed YOU SUCK AT THIS"! Boss goes and gets a diamond edge drill bit and drills out the tap, saves the day.

...or TASTE!!!!

We used to have a saying in the shop. "You let the smoke out of the wire"!!!!

Hahahahahahaha!!!!! I love it!

Not that long ago some high output marine 4 stroke engines had alarmingly small oil pans, it was to save weight, but they probably figured out that they needed more oil capacity for overall better performance. Today's engines have closer to 6 or more quarts, rather than the four, they used to have.

I am with the no odor crowd, both cars are 71s, we always run 91 no ethanol, I'm guessing because both have excellent vapor recovery systems for the time. I changed the tank in the 71, the evap hoses were shot!

Relays can malfunction for several reasons...weak signal from the key switch, weak coil inside to pull the contacts together, dirty or corroded contacts giving an intermittent signal to the starter. After seeing them fail in the marine world many times, I would open them up after acting up...

I realize you stated you were not going to replace it. I agree with the others, it does not look bad. I have found in my 48 years of wrenching, often times you will be worse off changing things that are really better off being left alone. JMHO, John

Seen this exact scenario on (gm) vacume advance HEI pickups.

I switched to solids on my flat tappet 383, I'll probably never ever go back to hyd. Almost no noise. My buddies cant even tell I'm running solids. They are lighter and easier for the spring to control, and contrary to popular belief, don't need constant adjustment.

We were there in '22 and absolutely enjoyed it, ( but 2 hours of the tires screeching from the racing was all we could handle)

I hate not being able to get all my Vodka out of these 1.75L bottles, the pour spout is super easy to remove with my Handy Snap-on brake tool!!!
