    spark advance

    Answering some questions. Crankshaft degrees on NuRex timing tab. Regular gas 87. Sidebowl Zenith no air cleaner. Plugs currently W 18 Y Champions. They are tan in color, running properly. I can change to 3X for testing. Using premium gas would be a waste of money. When new it was around 65...

    29 Town Car front seating

    Hello all, Can I get any comments on the driver's seating area. Is it similar to other 29 cars, in that someone like me who is 6'2" cannot properly drive it due to my knees being on the dash? Thanks, Dave

I forget where I got the new pos shaft, probably a swap meet. I'm going to get another one, this time from a dealer, where it may be returned...

With this new gas we have to buy, what have you had success with. I was thinking of using the red sealer. Any comments, suggestions would...
