dome light comes on when the door opens. Both batteries are good. Wouldn't start with a boost. I'm going to pull the starter off after trying Kilgons suggestions. Just not looking forward to crawling under it in the rain on a gravel driveway.

Was racking my brain as to what to get the wife for her birthday....A CAA membership

So I was checking the voltage to my fuel tank sending unit and my Daughter was helping by turning the key off and on for me. The next day we were going to go for a ride and the battery was completely dead. Chalked it up to her not knowing to jiggle the ignition before removing the key. Figure...

Was using my digital multi meter and it was all over the place, so iI might have 5.5v but the meter cant react fast enough to changes in voltage. Thanks Mrgmhale for looking that up. Have a new gremlin now so the fuel float will have to wait till I get the car running.

Queck question. is the voltage at the sending unit reduced? Im getting 4.5v at the sending unit.. Figured it should be 12 but then I remembered my bike guage is reduced to 7v Thanks guys.

We spend our time between Branford and Port Elgin

YOU GUYS ROCK! THANKYOU.

Ive had on occasion a glass fuse that was no longer available , so I bought an in line blade fuse holder and soldered the wires to the chrome ends of the blown glass fuse. Worked very well. Hangs out of the fuse box about 4 inches. Easy to change.

You guys are the best. Thankyou for your feedback. Had a good look at the tank and it's got several years of undercoating over the sending unit. Probably original. Was wondering if I should trust the new rubber gasket on an old tank or is there something I should be sealing it with. I was...

Hi guys...My wifes gas guage hasnt worked since she bought the car.. I read the sending units go bad and is probably the culprit. Picked up a new sending unit at a swap meet and was thinking about installing it myself. Of coarse theres no instructions so is there anything I should be aware of...

I've seen it done and was amazed. However that was a new car with a fresh dent. Guy told me the newer the dent the easier to massage out. He charged $75 per dent but that was a few years ago. Most of his business was from car rental places . Don't leave it to long thinking you can get it fixed...

bought ours from NPD but couldnt get it to thread in. ended up chaseing the thread with a utility knife.

My 67 Camero has a 1/4 inch cable around the frame and mount.This was a factory recall fix in 68

Doesnt matter how nicely it bolts up if it doesnt sound right. We have duels with headders and it sounds tinny. Our next exhaust will be much more rumbly

From time to time we reach for the easy spray can to touch up under the hood or some interior pieces so I thought I would share my Rustoleum nightmare with the group.I restore old motorcycles and my paint of choice is Tremclad which is the Canadian version of Rustoleum. Im currently restoring a...

My snowmobile buddy melted a piston. His raceing buddy told him it was because he was buying discount gas. Apparently gas from brand name stations is up to 10% ethonl but gas from the independents can run up to 20%. which I guess must run hotter. As far as your tank, I just lined a motorcycle...

I think the hose clamps off an old washing machine pump are mild steel. Might find something at the applience repair shop.

I'm in Brantford. You?

I've used the brass ferrule from a compression  fitting  with a touch of solder to create the bump on tube

Thanks guys. Not a lot of information on the newer 600cfm holleys on the internet. Found a video of a guy troubleshooting a Demon and he said the same thing you guys are saying.  Pulled the primary float bowl  and checked the needle and seat. Seamed ok to me but I took it to my local speed shop...
