Hey Neil, what's you point? I love guys who do check book restorations. Those are the sources for my 'drivers' a half dozen years later. I used to get a little uppity about the folks whose involvemen

Hmmm. I've always thought automotive batteries consisted of cells with each cell producing 2.2 volts when in optimum condition. 12 volt batteries have 6 cells and 6 volt batteries have 3 cells. So, a

You might try getting your discs turned to knock off the slight waviness. But it's usually caused by dust and the demise of asbestos brake pads. They make some blue goo that is anti-squeal that is sm
