Hi folks. Has anyone plumbed their return into the fuel fill pipe? It's a lot easier than dropping the tank to drill the sending unit and I won't have access to a garage soon. I'm a little worried about a siphoning effect while filling the tank too.
Thanks, Wally
Hi folks. Bit of a weird one lol. I started my engine to let it warmĥ up and all was fine. But a couple of minutes later I heard a whining noise slowly ramping up. Ends up it was the starter. Not enough to engage the ring gear but ended up sounding like she was ready to blow!!! I shut the key...
Hi all. Has anyone used their leftover Por15 fuel tank sealer on the outside of the tank too?. If so, how is it holding up?. This stuff is pricey so no sense wasting it right?
Thanks
Hey folks. I can't find brass synchro ings for my A903 anywhere so I'm going to have to reassemble it as is.
So what kind of additive can I use to give the old rings a little more friction. I'm running atf now but it's still clashing going from first to second And very hard to downshift from...
Hi folks. Just pulled the trans out of my 63 Savoy because of 2nd gear trouble. It's supposed to be an A903 trans and it looks like it is but the 2-3 synchro is not what it's supposed to be. The A903 and A745 had a ring and pin type synchro. Mine has a regular brass ring type synchro assembly in...
Good day folks.
I was going to install a mechanical oil pressure gauge in my Savoy but when I pulled out the old switch I found that the threads are much larger than the later ones, somewhere around 5/8" diameter. Does anyone know the thread and pitch (probably NPT yes?) of these old switches...
Hi all. Looking for info on transmission id. My 63 Savoy has a 3 speed manual in it. I believe it's an A903 but I want to make sure before I order parts for it. Do you know if thrre are numbers on the case that will tell me. Thank you.
Before I drain my trans fluid does anyone know if the speedo cable on these has an inner seal. It seems to be leaking out of the cable above the exhaust.
Thanks, Wally
Hi folks. My Savoy has some beautiful looking red and white bench seats. The mice that were living in it thought they were beautiful too lol. So I need to remove the backrest from the front seat. Does anyone know how to go about separating them?. It looks to me like I may have to remove some...
Hello there. My 63 3 spd manual (NP903
I think) needs bearings. My go to supplier, KING-O-MATIC industries can't find them here in Canada or in the USA. Would anyone happen to know the bearing numbers. The trans is still in the car so I can't get the numbers myself. I'd love to drive it for the...
Hello again folks. My Savoy has a nasty clunk in the front right wheel area when breaking hard in reverse. I'm leaning towards strut bushings even though rhey look good. Any opinions? Thanks,Wally
Hi folks. My 63 Savoy came spareless. I've purchased a wheel and tire and have the jack and tire iron but no bolt or wing nut. Plus, I don't have a clue as to how it all goes together. I would appreciate it if someone could take a picture of theirs for me.
Thanks, Wally
So I've given up on finding a used spare in my neck of the woods. Now I'm wondering what I need to buy for a new wheel. I can't seem to find anything with the proper offset measurements. According to Canada Wheels the OEM numbers are:
14x6" wheel
5 x 114.3 mm pattern
71.5 hub
and -15 -8 mm...
Does anyone know what type of female connectors the headlights take? I'm doing a budget relay upgrade so I'm just going to go connectors without the holders for now. The ones you get in the assorted kits aren't wide enough. Thanks for any help, Wall
Does anyone know how to rebuild the Column? I could use pics/vids before I dive in which I will be doing in a couple of hours in any case. Thanks in advance, Wally.
Hi again people. My 63 Savoy column shifter gave up on me today. Parked the car yesterday and all was fine, got in today and tried to select reverse and something felt funny. The shifter is no longer moving the shift levers. I realize that I have to remove the column to fix it but it's been...
Hi folks. I want to do an oil change on my 62 Savoy but the parts guys keep telling me I should have a spin on filter. We'll I don't! It's a cartridge! What am I missing here? Maybe someone installed an older engine at one point. Anyway, does anybody know what kind of cartridge would it take...
