I've been reading the discussion on spongy brakes, as I've been trying to bleed my brake system for most of this week. It's been too hot to spend a lot of time on it, but I've tried just about everyt

After spending several days trying different things, yesterday I finally got my brakes bled. I knew the hoses were good, since I had just installed new stainless steel braided ones, so I checked the

The only real causes of the poor hanling of the RB cars compared to the earlier models are the increased ride height, and the weight of those giant chunks of rubber and steel hanging off the ends of

If there is some interest, I have the bumpers off of my '79 right now, and some friends that have done some fiberglass and composites work. Maybe we could produce a few sets. Calvin

I have to agree with Charley Robinson on this one. The one thing that every marketing class says is really true. If someone is happy with the service they receive, they'll tell one or two people on a

I'm attempting to replace the front wheel bearings on my wire-wheeled '79, but discovered that I don't own a socket large enough to fit the nut inside the hub. I'm sure someone out there remembers wh

Since nobody who replied actually knew what size the front wheel bearing nut actually is on a '79 wire wheel hub, when I found out I thought I'd post it here. It's 1-3/16, and a short extension is ne

Earlier today I stated that the front wheel bearing nut was 1-3/16". I should have waited until I had it out and cleaned all the accumulated gunk off of it. Now, a 1-1/8" socket fits quite well, when

I can't believe nobody mentioned "Red Barchetta" by Rush. The story it is based on is about an MG, after all. Even if it wasn't, it would still be one heck of a great song. Calvin Krug

IMHO,I don't think the coolant flowing through the manifold would be of much help at startup, since the coolant will be cold. It might prevent vapor lock by carrying away some of the heat absorbed f
