    Modifying my 68 Valiant gas cap...

    I have seen posts about changing the gas caps to a flip style, a more modern with a door, but I wondered if this would work. Remove the "handle" on the cap and add some finger grooves. Do you think there would be enough "leverage" to open the cap this way? I need to find a spare cap to try. :)...

    Does anyone know of a hoist that fits in a 9' ceiling?

    I wanted a 6000 lb Dannmar Hoist, the one that only lifts 4', for my small engine shop. I could use 1/2 of it for lifting tractors and when I needed it for a vehicle I could bolt the other 1/2 down. I am gonna have 9' ceilings. We also have an 09 Ram CC 4x4. Not sure what these weigh but it...

    87 or 89 octane in a new Hemi, does it matter?

    Bought an 09 Ram Hemi last week and was reading the manual and it recommended 89 octane fuel but 87 was fine. We have ran 2 tanks of 87 octane through it with no issues, but what do you guys think?

    How do I fix my sloppy column shifter?

    Since I got my car the column shifter has been like this. I assume there is a spring that keeps the shifter forward? I think there is a roll pin that holds the shifter on, do I pound it out and does the spring go in somewhere there? I do have a parts car that I can use. thanks.

    What parts from a 77 Aspen will fit my 68 Valiant?

    Confused about fuel sender...

    My car last year would pick and choose when the guage worked. Well I just got around to testing it. I believe when you ground out the sender wire the guage should go to full, which it did. So I checked the sender unit and I believe it should read around 9 ohms with a full tank, it got no reading...

    Smelt antifreeze when I turned on the fan...

    I fired up the Valiant yesterday and when I turned the fan on, "steam" came pouring out of it and it smelt like antifreeze. Is this a sign of a bad heater core? Can it be fixed? Any write-ups on the web for changing it if this is what it is? thanks.
