Set your points and timing
Yes indeed, but I have discovered that practice doesn’t always make perfect. Only perfect practice makes perfect!
The clutch is activated via a cable and pulley. The cable seems to be properly adjusted. I’m going to try a bore scope to get a better...
Ok, I’m getting bad clutch noise when the pedal is down. The ‘62 M38A1 is powered by a 225 V-6. The problems began after it was put on a static...

Do you have a ballast resistor in series with the coil? If so, that resistor is sometimes electrically bypassed when the starter is engaged....

The front hubs are manual locking and the transfer case is in 2wd so I don't think the front shaft rotates. The vibration only comes in the high...
Ok, after using this site's search engine and a youtube explanation of u-joint technology I think I understand the term "in-phase". The...
I never considered the brake drum as being a possible source of the vibration. I will investigate - thanks!
Thank you for your input - the slop I observed is rotational, and it does seem to be at least 15 degrees or more. I need some help understanding...
I own a 1962 m38a1. The vehicle has been making a vibration when accelerating in 2nd gear as if the u-joints were bad. After replacing the...
