Author: Trevor Boicey <tboicey@isocan.com>
Date: Sat, 21 Sep 1996 20:36:31 -0400
Properly, it would appear that the viscosity indexes are the same, but the measuring temperature is different. So gear oil is "rated" as though it is thicker because it is tested at a lower temperatu

Looking for a Midget parts car to complement mine. Prefer Federal 1975 and on, but would consider others or slightly pre-1975 cars in case I decide I want to go chrome bumpers. I am in Ottawa, Canada

I would like to add at least a front sway bar to my 1975 Midget. The body roll on highway on ramps is pretty comical, I have to grab the tranny tunnel to stay inside the car. My car does not have any

If you just filled it up, my midget works that way. The car gets great mileage anyways, so the gauge doesn't move quickly. But the gas gauge doesn't start falling until after you drive for a while. S
