    Which Bilstein to Buy??

    I have the Sports and they work very good, but they work along with other mod's. Just shocks alone won't due very much. Along with the Sports I have poly link bushing for the front and rear sway bars, rubber at the frame . I have a stock front swaybar 3/4" and a 5/8" rear bar. I think the 71'...

    71' fan speed switch on hi.

    I don't know, you would have to take a volt/ohm meter and isolate. You have a short somewhere, could be in the blower motor.

    71' fan speed switch on hi.

    Yes it was the fuse. I think the relay/resistor is on passenger side where the a/c tubes go into the firewall area. The two relays/resistors up near the wiper motor on the drivers side, I'm not sure what they do. Unless I traced the wire wrong.

    71' fan speed switch on hi.

    I'll correct myself, it's a 30 amp in-line fuse. It was popped, I'll change it today and see what happens.

    71' fan speed switch on hi.

    Have a 71'. Fan speed won't come on in hi position of the 4 position switch. I was told it is a resistor in the back of the duct work. Has anybody had this problem and how do you change it. I have a new one. I have searched threads and found none on this problem.

    Sludge/engine rinse.

    Well, no one has said yet that they have not seen results using Sea Foam. Oil,gas and filter techology have improved since my car was made 35 years ago, even in the last 15 years. I don't think you would have seen many cars back then getting 150k milage unless you really took care of the...

    Sludge/engine rinse.

    Your #'s I'm sure are pretty close, so, if so few used a additive how could you get a mersurement on what might happen if more people used it and tracked the results. Maybe 200k miles? I sure if you change your oil every 2k miles the engine would last longer than changing oil every 4k miles...

    Sludge/engine rinse.

    Well that's a good point. I have not droped the pan, so I don't really know how dirty or how much sludge is in the motor. I know before the rinse the oil gauge was straight up 35psi. now it is between 35 and the next little hashmark which I belive is 45psi. Book says 40 at opt. temp. so somehow...

Where it was running 35psi dead on, now 40. Takes 15min.to warm up good, since the intake manifold...

    Sludge/engine rinse.

    In Sept. I changed out my intake manifold to a aluminum one. I have a 71'/270hp/4spd.78k miles, second owner, engine never gone thu. Then I repainted valve covers. When I pulled them off, in the cornners where the head bolts are recess a little, sludge had built up thick enough to scoop it out...
