I had an almost new 63 TR3B in 1964. It would start out at 70lbs on the road and as the engine got warm, drop to 50lb. After more miles on the highway, it would jump back to 70lbs. Had overdrive and

Well, I'm not completely without driving fun - I've been fixing up and driving my friend's Karmann Ghia, which is an amusing, though often befuddling car. I won't be too sad to get rid of it and get

I'd use it for disassembly for the most part, especially those nuts which are stubborn to get started or completely off. I do use an air wrench (not impact) for assembly of non critical items, like s

Over the weekend I did my annual oil & filter change on the 60 TR3A. I decided to try some Mobil-1 15w50. I have a bunch of it as I use in in my old 911. I was driving into work this morning in the T

Seems a bit on the low side to me, but likely not anything to be overly concerned about. What reading did you get at cruise before switching to Mobil 1? -- Randall
