My 1969 Corvair wastrailered from KY. to OK. on a trailer. Car backed onto the trailer. I took hub caps to avoid some thief an oppertunity to my hub caps.I did have someone else make the haul because my daily driver was not big/large/heavy enough to make a safe haul. Car arrived with dead bugs smashed on the back window, windshield was bug free.

Don't worry about a baby boom; we are all keeping a six distance from each other.I don't know about you but that distance should lower the chance for a baby boom.

Rusters were the norm till Detroit decided to make rusting a much lessor problem. By the 80's cars did a lot less rusting: inner fenders, drainage,holes and I think coating inner sides doors.

American Indians had zero immunity to Bugs/virus from Europeans. The world has zero immunity to Covi 19. Vaccines, I'm sure will come on the market, When? We have been quarantined ( live in retirement community ) , wife,recovering from surgery,was exposed to a positive covid 19 health care worker. Sure are tired of all the cooking & no eating out, but this will end when ti ends.

I have never been able to rebuild the GM window washer.(It's me.I just fail.) I end up ordering a new one from Clarks.

I highly recommend placing the evaporator on the floor of the trunk. Yes it will involve a hole in the trunk floor to exhaust the heat from the condenser; also, an opening for fresh air into the trunk space. Too darn much heat in the engine compartment to install the condenser in the rear end. I used an evaporator from Old air at Ft Worth,TX....Hug evaporator under dash with ease. I had lots of h

95HP,Power Glide, 1969... will run 70 -75 MPH on interstates with ease. I enjoy 50 to 60 best. Engine design reduces engine vibrations is the reason the Corvair can run so darn fast with out problems.

Heat soak, no problem with that. Fuel starvation can occur on hot days at any speed in my opinion.

Detnist in one state may well have to take a state board if he moves to another state. Take this situation, an orthodontist from NY moved to Fl. He had practiced orthodontics 40 years in NY.and he wanted to have the state license where he retired. FL law made him take a standard dental exam covering general dentistry. This is probably a 30 year old story, This is the same problem with driver

I remember a friend with a Falcon 6 cyl. He had to put an extra oil line in to properly oil the valve train. He said the Facons 6 cyl were deficent in valve train oil without the added line. NO idea if he is correct or not.

I found 4.5 filled but 5.0 qts were never a problem. Car burned a qt every 800miles at interstate speeds, other wise did not use oil. I change every 1500 to 2000 miles.. That keeps a low mileage per year driven car well.Ams oil or Brad Penn 10w 30 worked well for me.

Use 34 rear....22 front with no load under the hood......two or two front passengers 69 Monza......works for me. Matt has a good method.

My Corvair has 72,000 miles on it. All numbers read in an even line. I suspect the mileage is correct. however, I'm at least the third owner of the car. I think if the spedo is the big plus.

15% ethanol fuel, so sad! But to the farm industry's delight. Pump the under ground water to 'feed cars' via corn-ethanol, that does not made sense to me. What modern cars are certified to burn 15% ethanol? My 2018 Mazda CX5 is not.

Is timing order correct , correct wires to correct plugs? A guess on my part. You describe something in the traney or engine to my way of thinking. Keep us informed.

My CX5 Mazda has a finger push button to activate and unactivate the emergency brake. Works fine.
