The mechanic raised up from under my hood, he shook his head and said
Your timin' belt's done shrunk one size too small
Those spark plug wires are a little too long
And your main prodsponder's nearly gone
Your injector ports are stripped and that ain't all
The torque converter's runnin' low on torque
And that water pump's nearly down a quart
But we caught it all in time so you're in luck
Happy Friday!

Here is a link to some replacement parts in case you are having trouble finding them: http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3
If you are pulling the engine apart, be sure to replace the piston return springs. Also, there was no mention of the halogen fluid... Better check that while you're at it.

Here are a few more hard-to-find items. These people seem to have just about everything, but I don't see Brick Fluid listed.

Don't forget to change the air in the tires from summer air to winter air before Labor Day.

I hate having to change those muffler bearings.
Just don't like having to crawl under the car.

In all those good parts I saw narry a knibblin' pin. If one of those goes out while you are on the road you are in big trouble.
PatOf course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!

Is that knibbin pin to the left or to the right of the knubbin? I can never remember. A friend installed a knubbee to hold the knibbin pin in but he was running on winter air in July. Long story short -- it didn't work. Originally Posted by Stu Cool

Like Mike/34_40 I have no direct experience with DUI distributors but I trust Glenn's experience. Their TriPower setup (which Glenn Recommended) looks to be OEM pre-HEI size. For your radiator, the...
