    If the speedo "fluctuates" it's a bad speedo gear (not often), dry or bad cable. Neither one requiring more than a half hours repair. Or do u just want a Dakota dash and are justifying it to yourself or the wife? TIMINATOR

    1987 60/40 power seat gear or unit

    I bought a new seat transmission housing, my housing was disintegrated in a bazillion pieces. Apparently I am missing the drive gear that attaches to the coupler (I bought the coupler too). Anybody know where to get one? TIMINATOR

    Power plate install question

    Use studs or longer bolts in all locations, the factory plenum bolts tend to strip out even without the plate. TIMINATOR

    rear differential fluid change

    Keep in mind that the slipprey, low friction, gear oils that promise "more HP to the rear wheels" also diminish the effectiveness of the posi clutches, as do the "anti chatter" posi additives. Lo friction of the gears and bearings, is also lo friction on the posi plates. Exactly opposite of what...

    Cold Case Radiator Top Plate

    Update on my Cold Case radiator! I'm still in the finishing up phase on my Turbo T Limited and now have about 100 miles on it. I came out and found a 6 foot puddle of green under the car. It is naturally the center tube (3 cores) and the radiator shop says the only way to "fix" it is to recore...

    Engine, backfiring and sputtering while using cruise control

    Vacuum leak in the cruise diaphragm? It changes position when it's holding the throttle open and doesn't have vacuum on it unless activated. TIMINATOR

    engine noise

    Add T/A race headers to your buy list. NOT street headers. Detail collector on drivers side and detail pass side welds and where tubes come into common tube. Sometimes the pass side tubes stick into the common tube as much as 3/8". Other than that they are beautiful! I made a heat deflector...

    Head Porting do's and don'ts

    I use T/A race headers as the pass side street header is poop. and not much better than the stock one and has the same serious imbalance on cyl. #6. I also port the transitions and welds too. More difference than porting and the race headers also raise the convertor stall a bit too. TIMINATOR

    Head Porting do's and don'ts

    For an experienced porter, yes. You may hurt the flow or cause the guide boss to eventually crack, or both. You might want to price and check availability before you make up your mind. TIMINATOR
