I would still use non-ethanol fuel in your Jeep simple for the fact that the fuel is in contact with the bare aluminum of the fuel pump and carburetor. The carb and fuel pump kits have rubber parts...

True, it is definitely a security feature. I'll probably keep it in the 3A configuration since the starter was just gone through. It was a learning experience for me that the MB and the 2A didn't...

My apologies for misunderstanding the question. Mineral spirits have been used successfully to pull the dye/paint from the vinyl upholstery.

For the time being, I would recommend that you would make a diaper of Pig Mat or related material to catch any oil that may ooze out when showing. As long as you keep an eye closely to your oil...

The best thing I found to remove paint from darn near anything are the abrasive nylon brushes sold by Horrible Freight. Bmorgil referred to these brushes earlier in discussion with finding the...

The starter and generator are back installed. The starter ended up having a bad switch, even though I replaced it a couple of years back. I searched through my hoard and found the original one to...

I like the F head constipation. Good one LarrBeard!

The oil is a good sign. Hopefully the fuel and coolant were drained to prevent fuel getting old and the coolant from being under strength. Rubber hoses are cheap to replace compared to leaking fuel...

Speedo cables are a maintenance item that nobody thinks of. I went through a couple of speedo cables before I found a good source of NOS cables. So far, and a few years later, it's still working...

Work and life has a tendency to steal time away from projects. It happens. Yesterday was the first day that the Heep has seen daylight in a long time, awaiting the starter and generator to come...

7,500 rpm on the bottom end would definitely make for an oil pan failure. '56, your welds look a lot better than the ones on that intake.

black soot is much better than coolant/rust. As you imply, a carb adjustment is much easier than the alternative.

Amen to that Bmorgil. You can tell that '56's folks did a great job in bringing him up, and instilled a great work ethic in him to boot.

You are well on your way in getting started AJ-MJ. We look forward to tagging along in your progress. 1995 doesn't seem to be that long ago, but it is almost 30 years ago.... Holy cow. But anyway,...

Well said '56.

Usually if you have noise when deceleration, that often tells you that you have excessive backlash on the ring and pinion on the differentials. Dr. Dana can elaborate more on that subject. It isn't...

There is typical more than one way to do things besides right or wrong. I would sure try to loosen the main caps to sneak the new seal out. That will save you some time.

The next question is if the hot rod Kaiser Supersonic head was put on at that time or later on.

Thank you to all who didn't make it home

The Jerry can idea is an awesome idea '56, but like '51 said, you'd have to vent the top of the tank to flow correctly. The Jerry can would be the least intrusive way to extend your milage, and the...

Are you 100% sure that it is engine oil? After I do a service on the Heep, the transmission leaks out the front seal until it seeks the level it likes. It leaks at the bell housing. Just a thought.

Information is pretty limited on the Mustang Rebuilders Inc. There are a few adds on eBay that are dated in the early '60s.

Unfortunately, you can only upload one photo at a time into the attachment manager. Once it's in your manager, you can add four more photos for a total of five.

Not on pavement. I know I locked up the rear 11" drum brakes on the wagon, thirty years ago when a car pulled out in front of me. They were way too close, so I locked up the brakes for a brief...
