I probably pitched it. I had the same problem as the OP. Got mad and tore it apart, oh, it wasn't an orginal, it was a replacement. Got the cap off and there was a very light spring with a rubber washer in there. I agree about not wanting pressure, it's a vent. I have a new vent from...

The replacement ones have a spring and a rubber washer to throttle the pressure.

That's why I hate LED's, glare, the only person that can see is the guy driving them. I try not to drive at night anymore unless I get caught because that's all that's out there.

I tried tightening it down from light to too much, didn't matter. Sanded housing flat, filed the intake, never had these issues that I remember from working at a garage for awhile in the late 60's, early 70's. The o-ringed housing is the fix, I have never had to mess with the damn thing...

Yes, mine leaked with the new aftermarket vent tube. I thought that maybe something was sticking and building up pressure, I was having trouble with the pinion seal at the same time. I made up a pigs tail brake line tube , it works, just haven't gotten around to playing with it again...

Whatever stock gap would be.

There are different size diameter thermostats. Thermostats should not rattle or move around.

Real Gasket worked for me 3 years ago, but when I went to a Flowkooler water pump, it blew the gasket out 2 times in a row. I then changed to a Flashpower o-ringed thermostat housing, no leaks or blowouts since.

Well, yes and no. A car that I bought had an overdrive shifter, I believe. It was a bayonet, they cut a little off the bottom and drilled 2 holes for the comp plus that was being used, but it was still bent wrong, so I took a torch to it and bent it up to the shifter that you want, but you...

They have to be getting power from somewhere. Start looking at a switch would be my guess.

Ya gotta look at them too. My aftermarket shafts, came with the rockers, the notch is up, oil holes down. Just saying that you can't just assume notch is down and good to go.

Understand completely! I only have a couple of friends that I would loan money to, and vise versa. They would do the same for me, because we know going in that I would take care of things as soon as we got home, and they would to. I know exactly what you are saying. Hang in there!

If I have to explain, why.

Looks like a /6 thread question.

Try another source for the u-joint. My guess would be a local driveshaft shop, like Sadler, not sure if they are nationwide or in your location.

I agree, best $20. that she ever spent. Same deal cost me only five dollars, but I just don't loan money , unless it's a close friend at a swap meet and they get caught buying something that they didn't expect.

Okay guys. Thank you for the input!

I was curious, doesn't sound like it's worth it. Wanted something to tag my 3 cars and trailer. Maybe I am looking in the wrong direction. Was under the assumption that they could be tracked like a GPS in a phone, or airplane transponder.

Anyone have any personal advice on Air Tracking devices?

I too faced your same problem with my '72 318. In my case, it was time to overhaul a 50 year old engine. Wasn't really sure what the actual mileage was. For me, it really wasn't worth my time to do all of that cleaning and to renew the gaskets and seals, and not just overhaul it. I could...

Or the 8 3/4 pinion seal?

Might help to know what you are working on.

Did half of that, was going to cut those tabs off this time. Though I haven't had a problem in the past, I obviously am doing something different. Can't continue to do the same thing and expect different results! Thanks for the tip, I had already thought about cutting the tabs and rotating...

Well, I am still waiting to break something with the junk clutch, have'm in two cars, one is a Hemi car, the other is a small block stroker. Guess that I just don't beat the hell out of them enough. Not going back to a 3-finger, and I never was into taking them apart and adjusting them to...

Wouldn't Brewers know? Is a '72 still a Hurst?

Next , is your pan leaking or your rear main seal? I haven't had a problem with the rear main seal before, but do now. Just duplicating what I have done in the past, and it's not working.

Evans or M&H.

They do install without modification! Good luck to you!

I have the Carter mechanical pump on my Sixpack, it's advertised as 6.9-8.1 fuel pressure. I installed a fuel pressure regulator and could tell no difference, so removed it. Not saying that you shouldn't use one.

Yeah, they can't catch anything. I would not say that I have tough fingers, but usually just push them into place., but they can be snotty at times!
