Don't know about these brands because I've always managed to get the correct replacement when buying them but I do know that for Autolites the lower the number the hotter the plug. Roland

Does anyone know what the dimensions of the business end of one of these T-handles is (I mean the ones for TR-2 & 3s). My snake came with one but it disappeared shortly after I bought the car and I'

I was browsing through the latest Snakebite Bulletin and came across an appeal for a rear fender for a '64 Cobra. No big deal except the address to respond to was only a block away. I could hardly be

Once while I was doing some work on the front brakes of a Healey, I managed to break a fitting by over tightening it. It was Friday evening and everything was closed. The Healey was my only means of

I forgot about the time I "repaired" the broken spring on my '47 Crosley by wedging a piece of 4" pipe between the axle and the frame. I dove it that way for about a year.

As mentioned previously, I once owned a 1947 Crosley. Crosleys were probably the ultimate in the cheap car category of the period. I'm told that one of the more serious short comings these cars had o

Robb, If you don't already have a copy, get the current issue (Oct '91) of Road & Track. There's a good Healey article in there by Peter Egan. Brought back a lot of old memories of Healey trials and

A casual attitude was about all we could afford, hey Dick. Another Crosley story: One day I was driving home from school and the Crosley stalled at a stop light. When I tried the restart the car, I d

The clutch and brake pedals on my snake are made of aluminum. To slightly retard wear and to provide friction, 1/2" holes are drilled in both pedals near their tops and bottoms where a drivers foot t

This incident was so incredibly stupid that I must have been repressing the memory because it only came back after reading some the accounts of other peoples dumbness. Guess it's something like being

The purpose of these bills is to help reduce CA's $16 billion deficit. Presumably that's why they're both in the tax and revenue code. I don't have any more information beyond what was originally pos
