I was attempting to remove the drums (finned aluminum)
at the front, but it appears they are riveted to the hub?
I did a search and found a thread concerning a 66 Riviera,
over at v8Buick.com...
If I put the AC/Heat/Vent source switch to Vent mode,
the blower motor blows air as expected - the blower
speed switch controls the blower in all speeds. The
blower motor also works in Heat mode....
Personally, I wouldn't recommend them. Yes, they have many years under
their belt with respect to rebuilding engines and transmissions.
They are also known as Precision Engine, ICT Engines, and...
Put the WD40 in the back of the cupboard ... PB-Blaster is far superior.
A suggestion - don't start a *new* thread when you could very
well have posted right back into the original thread ...
Unfortunately, for my eyes, the image in the "thumbnail" section
is too...
Ask 'em if they have 7/64" hose.
Get a good caliper and double-check the nipple's OD.
Why are you suggesting a high-viscosity oil? Is this for a race application?
50 is an awfully heavy oil for a daily driver. My manual specifies that for
+32*F to use 10w30, 20w, or 20.

That's correct, according to the tune up page in the Reference section on this site.
The relay on my 64 is on the left inner fender, indicated by the
red line I've drawn in this photo ... you should be able to start
at the horns and follow the wire back:

There's a section on sludge in here, but I suggest you the whole article:

BTW - when I mentioned I scanned 64-70 model years, I scanned for
the 1110933 part # for *all* listed engines, not just the 401.
I suggest you put your car's information in your "signature", so
that folks know your car/engine size/carburetor/etc and can
offer accurate answers/suggestions. (Click "User CP" at the

Something odd - the assembly plant...
Agreed.
Here's some scans from my Motor's manual - although it only goes up
to 1970, the procedure should be the same (click for full size images):

If you feel like you need "piece of mind" concerning this, Gunk has a
product called "Lead Substitute", available in most auto parts stores
and probably a discount store, such as WalMart.

Since it's been sitting for 7 years, I'd change the oils/filter and do a proper
check of all the ignition components - heck, if it were my car, I'd simply
replace everything (spark...

a 69 Mustang which showed very minor surface rust (odd for...
Based on the photos, I'd pass.

I can't be certain about the six-digit prefix - I'm fairly certain that
the 7D1060972 is also considered the VIN code and would be found
stamped on the VIN ID Tag at the driver's door hinge. BTW,...
