I usually take the starter out. If I remember right there's a couple of flats on the hose end, so you can hold it whilst loosening the nut. Don't take the bracket off the car. CR

Have a radiator shop check to see if combustion gases are entering the cooling system. It is done by checking the coolant for carbon monoxide. Cheers, CR

It's the other way around. The problem is the air being drawn in past the worn shafts/bushings. Why else would the grease in those spots be a temporary fix? CR

Paul, I've been there and done that. When the leak past the end of the butterfly shafts gets bad enough, you can't slow the engine down by use of the idle screws. It's like a leak at carb to manifold

There's a big thin washer under the bolt that is keyed to the shaft. Part of it is bent over against a flat on the bolt head as a locking device. You need to get a chisel under this and bend it up aw

Sounds like the tower is pushing the rocker against the washer on the rear of the shaft and locking it up when you tighten the screw. I have a spare rocker assembly, so I took a look at it. Do you ha

Make sure that the washers on the bolts holding both the manifolds on are parallel to the head when you tighten them up. I had to replace a manifold one time and found that the replacement manifold a

On my spare, the screw wasn't fully tightened. It was screwed down to where the flat on each side of the blade was even with the top of the tower. This way, the shaft could rotate a few degrees each

That's the Crane XR-700 now. I had one of the Allisons. I don't remember if the amp broke the current flow through the coil or if it pulsed the coil like a CD ignition does. Take a look on the Crane

An octane boost doesn't mean you'll get more power. Higher octane means greater anti-knock resistance.

Or maybe the coil is partially shorting when hot. The thing is, you have to have all the parts and tools to hand when the car craps out, so you can troubleshoot while the problem exists. CR
