FWIW, I got a deal on a 255-70-15 tire to use as a spare. Found out yesterday that the larger tire will not slide down into spare tire carrier.
Bummer.

Olivier, Did you install Mondello's oil restrictors in the block when you rebuilt it? These will reduce the oil pressure at the sending unit. After installing these on my 442, the oil light comes on when my engine is hot and at idle. Secondly, was the plug reinstalled on the oil gallery at the rear ...

Roland,
The radio is AM/FM, not Wonderbar. I'll have to pull it in order to check it it works. I would prefer to communicate about parts outside of this forum. Please call or email me with your questions or interest.

Here is what I found on my 1966. The step in this CV shaft which rid...

Otto,
Thanks for your reply. I viewed Garland's forum post, but missed the aftermarket coolant tank in his photos. After receiving your personal email, I called Garland and he gave me the Dorman part # 54002 and a suggestion on how to mount it in the car.

Otto, To answer your question: I replaced the heater core. The old one was full of sediment so I wanted to flush the engine out of the heater hoses before connecting them to the new heater core. I had the cap off so that I could add water to the radiator while the water discharged out of the open he...

With the radiator cap off and the engine hot, the coolant surges out of the radiator when I shut the engine off. I lose about a gallon of coolant when this happens. Is this a result of the radiator cap being left off or do I have other issues? Neither of my 2 -'66 Toronados have coolant overflow tan...
