With the cost of rebuilding/repairing these engines this day and age, putting a “T” in the system and being able to monitor the oil pressure at the engine is a life saver IMO. It’s inexpensive and just a piece of mind.

Friend that’s cheap insurance! The you can rule that variable out. Personally I wouldn’t crank that engine again.

Man.. He will surely be missed!!

Lots of pics before and after

Needs to be put in the archives for others as well. Beautiful pic!!

S30 texted me back a few days ago and said he was under the weather with some flu symptoms.

Definitely swap the calipers! If you have the master cyl loose it wouldn’t hurt to check the depth. When I say apply grease I mean as little as possible. 1/4 turn longer. When you go to mount it you will know if it’s too tight. Long cue tip and a smidgen of grease at the base. I think you Will definitely find it’s the calipers being reversed.

Chime in Gentlemen

From what I see it’s off from the pics shown in the post you provided. Hopefully it could be that simple

Have you tried the “old school hillbilly technique”? Just a blimish of white lithium grease on the Mc piston. Once you find evidence on the booster rod itself give it another 1/4 turn and you should be dead on.

Is it 11:35 on the distributor or 12:35 On the oil pump shaft? I need to go back and look.

Could those possibly have been a rendition of a Appliance wheel somehow?

Ahhhh, You provide more education here!!! And no tuition required 😂😂

Where have you been My friend!!!

Possibility it got flooded somewhere In its life time. Maybe salt water. Wonder what the inside sheet metal looks like.

Ryal’s order three or four different sizes!! Increase your odds!! You can return the other three and pass on the info…🤣🤣

No worries, once you ohm it out you will know right away. These cars have a ton of connections and by the time you’re done you will have a good understanding. IIt takes time and patience. Record everything you check.

What did you find out when you measured the links with your meter?

If those are near the passenger side shock tower I believe they were for the factory AC system. Something to do with the vacuum solenoids/vacuum bottle. My 78 has them and they were not connected. Had the same mess you are dealing with.

Not eliminate, I guess you didn’t understand what I meant. Meaning diagnose another variable in the circuit. As you know every connection on these vintage survivors needs a good visual and measurement so you can move on to the next step.

Did you happen to look at the other items he has for sale it’s insane!!

Thought I saw a thread where someone here made one on a 3d printer. Fairly recent.

I think you might be looking at sound deadening material.

He could have crusty green contacts as well as a bad link. Why not eliminate each leg and put that to bed.

Disconnect and ohm it out
