    Small Bubbles in Transmission Oil

    When I removed the shifter tower to inspect the gears, I notices an accumulation of small bubbles in the gear oil (90w). I promptly drained the oil, which was clean looking.

    Doesn't Want to Restart After Running a While

    My '31 coupe starts just fine and runs well. After it runs 10-15 minutes, it often won't fire up. Cranks fine, ammeter is moving when cranking. I am wondering if the condenser might be getting too hot and shutting down. I have the 'modern' set up with the non-stock points and condenser...
