A while back, someone said he replaced the oil in his tach to keep the needle from jumping around. Does anyone remember or know the viscosity of this oil? I thought he said he used gear oil. Thanks, Victor.

Anyone have any experience with either of these (or anything similar)? <a href=http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=1378&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=627&iSubCat=628&iProductID=1378>Short Circuit Tester</a> <a href=http://www.eastwoodco.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=1411&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=627&iSubCat=628&iProductID=1411>Fault Finder</a> It seems like these could come in quite useful with our old cars.

Hello everyone.....my 71 Z has recently started having headlight problems. It takes several seconds for them to come on and amp gauge bounces around when they are on. However, the lights don't flicker. Suspect a bad relay but switch may be the problem...any thoughts on this??? I have owned the car since 73 and this is a new one on me.

I've had a ongoing promlem with my 83 280 turbo. Driving along at "noload" power the fuel would cut out, if you stepped on the gas it would cough and accelerate properly. I took it to the dealer and after replacing all the sensors he said it was the brain. So I bit the bullet and replaces the computer. And no it wasn't the brain - it still did it. So I stuck it in storage to work on it later, but two years later I had to move it 10 miles to a new storage site. This time although it started and ran fine when I went to drive it any time I got over 1000 rpm it cut out. anyway I put it away for another 3 years then started it and moved it into the shop. The only sensor that…

Hey guys, Im chasing up a Chrysler Dual Ballaster Resistor and am having huge troubles finding one in AUS, so if anyone out there has one or has access to one i would greatly appreciate it. A single Ballaster is no good, it needs to be duel, they were common on 73-76 US vehicles. Thanks
