With the 20-50 oil, the pressure is slightly higher at hot idle. The car makes no noises and does run great, but now the oil pressure light flickers, not on bright, at a hot idle in "D". Gauge shows about 10-12 , when I hook up the light it comes on. Wrong sender maybe? Brian I've had new...

No problem exists. All my rocket v8s were under 10 psi, at low idle at stop signs.

Quit worrying, your car is normal.

Specs on the glasspack?
what length and size is that?
Thanks

It looks like the play in the mechanism is where the set screw holds the linkage tight. Is that how its supposed to work? That would 'splain things I think. When I had to force it to open, the set screw would be the first thing to give, and if its not rusted all to hell its not an easy fix to get to...

Found all four vac can fasteners and removed.

I found the adjustment underneath the car that allowed the light to lower flush with the body.

Now the headlight is floppy when its down. Its not held in place like the other.

One problem solved and another uncovered. It still beats driving plastic.

2 questions:
Are you using premium fuel without ethanol?
Do these cars often sit with ethanol fuel in them?

I've got 225/70/R15s on my 66, and feel they are adequate. I already had them new and my car needed tires right away. I'd rather something a tad larger.
