Re: [Chevelle-list] O/T oil additive
I am not sure of their requirements but the labeling on the bottle states it meets or exceeds requirements of both gasoline and diesel engines. I am not involved with the actual bottling of the oils just the manufacture and blending of different components in their full strength form before they are added to the base oils that is then botled. Hope this helps. John L. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: also is this true?;; Diesel engine requirements are much different that those of gasoline engines. The higher speeds and lower bearing surface-to-power ratios of gasoline engines require oil with higher shear ratings than most diesel oils. Diesels also have higher bearing clearances and that calls for higher viscosity oils. The additional detergents required for soot control actually reduce the effectiveness of added levels of ZDDP found in diesel oils. Also, newer diesel oils beginning in 2007 have greatly reduced their content of ZDDP In a message dated 7/12/2008 8:37:19 A.M.

Re: [Chevelle-list] (no subject)
Pete, I have to agree with Shawn that the MC is at fault here. I was going to mention that there might be air in the line, but if the car was sitting for any length of time then the air could have made it's way back up the line and into the MC therefore bleeding themselves of any air. Even new MC's have been known to fail. Like someone earlier said in this thread s**t happens sometimes. They are machanical and they will fail.

I will be installing an MSD6AL ignition box when I change out my heads.

My problem is this, the diagram shows to hook the switched line from the ignition switch to the red line off of the Pertonix module and to another line from the MSD box, I don't have the diagram in front of me so I don't remember the color of the wire off of the MSD box but I have two wires coming through the fire wall now hooked to the positive side of the coil along with the red line from the Pertonix module. My question is this, do I hook both of these wires to the red line off of the Pertonix module and the line to the MSD box? Sorry for the long winded post and thanks in advance for any help. John L.

Re: [Chevelle-List] tune up
I upgraded to the Petronix Ignitor, not the Ignitor II. The distributor must be pulled to install the first Ignitor that I tried, to check for end play in the distributor because of the use of a magnetic ring under the rotor. I didn't leave it in because I couldn't get it to run with it in, thought it was the Ignitors fault. Got new one in mail and let sit in box on shelf for 5 months. One day I received new Jegs catalog and saw that a different Ignitor module is available that the distributor does not have to be pulled to install, no need to re-time, etc. The new Ignitor has an LS designation in the part number which stands for Lobe Sensor. No gap to check, simply screw onto base plate, feed wires through distributor and connect to coil. Have been using for almost a year with no problems, but sure to follow the directions included very carefully including all checks as you go along.

Tom, I saw on the net that you will be at Cruisin' The Coast this year. Do you know of anyone else from the chevelle.net there. I will be getting there on Thursday and staying through Sunday. Maybe we can hook up out there. John L.
