Hi,
I own a '76 Corvette, and I have some general questions. First, I'm looking to install a hi-performance HEI coil, such as an Accel Brute Thunder. Do I have to worry about my lo-performance cap and rotor handling it? I've also got Bosch plugs and wires.
Also, I had to tow my car on a front end only trailer, and since I've arrived at my new base (I'm Air Force) I've noticed a lot more play in the steering wheel, whereas before it was nice and tight. How deep would I have to go to tighten it? I've done basic tune-ups and brake jobs and the easy stuff under the hood, but steering column is all new to me.
Last one: My headlamps don't come up completely when i turn the lights on. One will partially raise, and I have to run around to the front of the car to catch it before it drops, and manually drag the other one up. Pretty embarrasing when admiration turns to chuckles from people standing around. I checked a thread before dealing with headlamps but I would like to know how big of a project this would be. I have standard tools. Should I just take it into a dealer?
Thanks much for any help,
Catherine
