I had a kinda similar problem years back, trying to remember, on my 59, and it was the headlight relay. I cleaned the connections, and it was fine.... I...
Probably already addressed it, but check the choke, with radical season temp changes, some of the old choke springs need a summer and winter tweak in their...
Paul - Choke working fine. If the car sits less than 5 days, it starts immediately. Still can't figure out why after 1 week it cranks a bit. Fuel bowls (2...
Hi I am a new member. Sounds like another variable besides the gasoline is the carburetor rebuild. Is that right? Is it possible that the floats are saturated...
Thanks for joining, us, new member Scott! Carb rebuild ALWAYS changes the 'personality' of the carburetor, I have noticed. 1958 Fuel-Bowl Floats are BRASS...
I bought my cadillac at the end of last summer. The brakes on it are really hard, but I'm not sure if I need to replace the booster or if the really hard...
