Hello We had a little us car meeting recently and there was one with a ́cuda with it converted to Hemi. Then the discussion came on which musclecar was the strongest which was running serially from the band. I was of the opinion that it was the Chevelle SS 454. But I don’t know so much about it. Can anyone of you tell me that ? Would super. Thanks in advance, Martin

Yesterday I had a visit from a Seville driver who complained about the “comic” steering and snares and cracks in it. He had already been missed by the dealer a new steering gear, a new servo and new belts at the price of loose 1800 Euros… When I looked more closely at the joints of the Intermediate Shaft (connection of steering column and steering gear with 2 joints and a telescopic connection in between), it was noticeable that they were really dust-dry. – some smart guy probably cleaned the parts and sprayed them with WD40 or something like that. NO – this is definitely not the right way! So I removed the part, cleaned it and really brutally smeared it with machine grease (intentionally no special grease due to creeping properties) and see – no cracking and snoring, steering is not as bony anymore, but really full and soft and the cracking when braking is also gone. It should be 150. Maybe you should also tell the workshop that they need a full nut for the expansion… So dear Seville driver – at least every 50,000 km the joints are provided with real grease! All 120,000 km I would expand the part to make a reasonable cleaning and to grease the telescope. If possible, you have to replace it because of the game – but that’s what the TÜV says. but, the steering gear has game – is definitely very, very rare and only at running speeds beyond the 250 tkm so – or it was a pure parking vehicle… So far I have only replaced a steering gear (too much work…), but only because the internal sensor was defective and you can not exchange it individually.

Hello, which causes can the backfire have with short load changes at the Chevy TBI? Ignition is correctly set up, TPS too. Vaccum hoses are all new. WHEN you ride gently everything goes only when you give stronger gas it starts to spin and there is backfire, just as if you give short gas shocks in the stand. Thanks for the help.

Hello in the round I’m just about to rework my Big Block Bj 76 and now wanted to grind the valves in. Now an acquaintance told me that it could be that I have hardened valve seats and by grinding in break the coating and that as a result they “burn away” later. Can someone help me? Thank you very much.

Hello, I have to buy a mustang (2013 or 2014) before next year. For financial (and perhaps also a bit for ecological) reasons I think about it after the V6 to the V8. Since I was always convinced, however, a mustang must be a V8 I would like to know the opinion of more experienced mustang connoisseurs. To what extent is the V6 inferior to the V8? Are the over 100 hp more indispensable for sound and driving feeling or is the V6 in Germany d he better decision? Thank you in advance!

Hello everybody, I would need a qualified answer again, because I have a riddle again. I’m just rebuilding a 1955 Chevrolet Apache and I have a question about the gun game on the upper crosscarrier. Must say that the front axle is from a 78 Camaro. I wanted to install the new cans and realized that I certainly have 3mm game. I thought it was funny, then the old ones got and they had the same game. Is it normal that d he have so much game (see picture)?! And if we are already there: Does someone with how much NM they are dressed? Thank you in advance and many greetings, Florian

Hi, I’m thinking about getting a U.S. oldie next year. Often some Dutchmen are offered that are only paid for. I want it in the direction of trans am, c3, Challenger, cuda. The cool things stop What would I have to upgrade with the cars and how does it work with the German papers? Greetings

Hello together, since my 92er Chrysler LeBaron has a gearbox overhaul from the A604, I need the following automatic transmission oil: – MOPAR 7176 ATF+3 or – Pennzoil ATF+3 where can I get the oil??? A request from the Chrysler dealer showed that the MOPAR 7176 is no longer available and the MOPAR ATF+4 must not be used. Normal DEXRON ATF3 must not be used and an oil supplement such as the Lubeguard Black Bottle I do not want to use. from you possible sources of supply or even the oil ? Need for the transmission about 10 liters or 20 liters as supply. Thank you already ! Greetings Danny

Since last WE my Park Avenue of 91 doesn’t want to start anymore. In the evening he doesn’t want to start anymore! Everything goes on, only the engine doesn’t want to start. No click, or try to start. Just nothing else! Everything goes on. Light, ventilation, radio… etc. The starter is ok. So it seems to be the immobilizer itself. With brand new keys tried. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work. -.- Now I saw in the forum that someone had the same problem, and he the Einfac But unfortunately it is from 2009 and without further comment. Now I ask myself the question, how can I bypass the immobilizer? Does anyone have schematics? I’m just really broken up because he is my only car at the moment… Maybe someone can help me here?! Greetings, Marc
