I know we're supposed to be 'the weaker sex' Geof, but geez. Perhaps it's a little-known leadfoot lady's secret, but one of the best ways to keep the twins in tip top shape is to not have power steering. :-D
oh this is great ....i never thought of it as help for the twins ...and i need all the help i can get with that LOL .....i have never had power steering on an A-body .....my B-bodys yes ....but those are way bigger cars too.
i appriciate the idea of efficency with EFI and all that jazz but i keep mine all old school and i drive it everyday....i did upgrade to 73+ electronic ignition.
if you or her learn to tune it properly you should not have any reliability problems ....they worked in the old days ....no reason they shouldnt work now.......its a skill very worth learning
i keep mine tuned and it starts on cold snowy mornings....and when im under the hood guys wonder what im doing in there......but truth is i have given some of my neigbor guys jump starts on cold mornings .......its really funny to see the reaction LOL
but its all about tuning ....properly tuned an original mopar should rarely get sick and call off the day
