    Brakes creaking? What's the spring the encircles the drum for ? 57 Belvedere

    Check the FSM for where the return springs hook into the brake shoes. If I remember correctly either the front or the backs hook onto the loop like your shoe above. In other words one set the return springs hook into the loops and the other set hooks into the hole in the web that is visible...

    I see nothing in FSM on the door stops and how they work?

    From the factory the bracket on the door jamb that has the pin going through the flat strap is spot welded to the door jam, there is nothing else beyond that. I edited both my posts because I gave you bad information on how the door check works. The detent that I mention is the piece on the end...

    I see nothing in FSM on the door stops and how they work?

    First off there is no spring and the door stop has nothing to do with any of the hinges. If your other doors stay open than I assume you know there is a "detent" at fully open that keeps the door open. Are you pushing it all the way open? I put a thin coating of grease on the flat rod. Mounted...

    Got new gas tank today, how far should the pickup AND float be from the bottom?

    If the pickup and float is 1/2" off the floor and you happen to run your fuel low as the fuel sloshes around it will suck air. If there was water settling on the bottom of the tank it would be only after the car was sitting for a bit and I wouldn't want the pick up in the lowest setting. If...

    Safest lube for gas tank O ring?

    One time I was replacing some o-rings on a Kohler faucet and used Vaseline on the o-rings and couldn't get the parts together. Called Kohler to see if they sent the wrong o-rings and the tech asked what I used to lube the o-rings. I told him Vaseline and he told me Vaseline would make the...

    NS-1 Neutral safety switch, other part #?

    Page 220 in the FSM says tighten switch until electrical contact is made then tighten 1/3-1/2 turn tighter. Make sure transmission is in neutral. Make sure the concave of the spring washer faces the transmission. I thought there was a torque value on these but one did not appear in the FSM.

    The Beloved Red X

    Calling someone a troll and the inevitable proudly proclaiming putting someone on ignore reflects that person's immaturity far more than the failed attempt at an insult that folks think it is.

    The Beloved Red X

    I guess if the above mentioned Bud Light meme made sense to the perpetually angry crowd this one would too, but still don't see the connection that you're trying to make, not that it matters to folks like you. The perpetually angry crowd don't need things to make sense, they just forward...

    The Beloved Red X

    I guess this meme from memesfortheperpetuallyangry.org means something but heck if I know what it's supposed to mean. I'll have to put this one in the "Huh ?" file along with one that was posted awhile back in the Funny Pictures thread that showed a meme of Bud Light Beer as tranny beer or...
