Subject: Re: Guess whose got a C3? by bogus on 2014/9/16 19:41:15 since all I care about is the brakes functioning at 100% NOW, and safely, I am going to fix them the most common and easiest way possible. Remember, every dollar spent is a dollar out of my pocket, so to speak, so I must to this "Wheeler Dealer" style. Now, if this was my car to keep, I would do something to upgrade them, but at this point, ain't happening. Does NCRS actually take a brake caliper apart to see if it has an oring in it? That seems risky... It is a Q-Jet, and I wasn't going to do much more than pull the lid off and blast the circuits out. I will check that book out, tho, thanks! I planned on checking the fuel line and filter... the car was parked for a few years, then recommissioned by the original owner, he died, it was driven some, then the brakes went off, and the car has been parked ever since. So the last 10 years can't have added more than 3,000 miles, TOPS... oh, I am also going to check the rubber brake lines. I had a feeling that a wider tire would fit on that rim, thanks for the option! I am going to squirt oil down each spark plug hole, and yes, change the oil.  I am figuring 20-50 Mobil 1 would be the best solution for this vintage an engine. |
