Re: Thermostat Selection in Hot climates (score: 1): Author: Dave & Marlene <rusd@velocitus.net>; Date: Tue, 25 May 2004 16:40:19 -0600; A cooler thermostat won't help cooling if the engine wants to run hotter than the setting. It WILL give you a little more margin for temp rise during a short stop on a cooler day. Engines are more e; /html/healeys/2004-05/msg00640.html (8,656 bytes)

Re: Felt top brake posts (score: 1): Author: Dave & Marlene <rusd@velocitus.net>; Date: Tue, 25 May 2004 16:45:31 -0600; I think the usual procedure is to apply the brakes & adjust the posts to just touch the shoes. Any more would push the shoes out of alignment with the drums. Dave Russell; /html/healeys/2004-05/msg00641.html (6,901 bytes)
