Should there be a voltage at the 12 point plug for each of these three guages. My dash lights work. Turn signals work. brake lights. All the lights are working. Iam stumped. Any ideas,Thanks. Frustrated.

Re: [Chevelle-list] winter storage
building an engine in cold temps will result in slightly higher bearing clearances due to the cold crank,rods,etc.I was told .001-.0015 variance.building to tight specs will result in bearing and ring end gap clearances being just a bit too tight - Original Message - From: Jim H. Thompson jimthompso...@gmail.com To: 'The Chevelle Mailing List' chevelle-list@chevelles.net Sent: Wednesday, October 14, 2009 8:46 PM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] winter storage Are you using a quality car cover? Many have a moisture layer. If you raise the car up use jack stands under the boxed part of the frame. I suggest using one layer of cinderblock covered by a one inch piece of plywood under the jack stand since the car is on dirt not concrete. Just use plastic sheeting from the hardware store the same kind that you would use under the house. Since there will not be any liquids in the block the temp does not matter. If the garage is connected to the house consider building a clean room using some 2x4 and plastic sheeting on wall the that is next to the house. You will be surprised how a small space heater will work in plastic lean-to. Also a halogen work light kicks off a bunch of heat.

I have an outdoor car port the ones with metal poles and a tarp on top. My question is there anything to put over the ground to help with the winterization. I have heard of putting down straw or hay but think they would just retain moisture. The ground is clear of any growth and is plain dirt. Is it preferred to put the car on blocks or just let it sit as is on the rubber. Also wondering what kind of problems would I run into if I were to rebuild the engine in the garage while the garage is not continuously heated? I live in eastern Canada and have but a few weeks left. Thanks Lorne 66 Malibu
Re: [Chevelle-list] Timing Light
depends on how much you want to spend.naturally a snap-on or mac light is going to be superior.sears or any reputable auto store will have a decent light;but at lwast not the cheapest one.also,inductive pickup is essential and a light with a dial to set the degrees advance so you just use the TDC on your engine is more accurate good luck - Original Message - From: jww1...@aol.com To: Chevelle-list@chevelles.net Sent: Friday, October 09, 2009 3:39 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] Timing Light Need your suggestions. My Timing Light died on me and I need to replace it. This Penske Light served me well for the past 30 years and I have not paid any attention to the new ones in the market. Please give me some suggestions what to buy. Thanks, Jerry Wells
