y was 12 months or 12K miles whichever came first. I took him at his word and have always added lead substitute to anything built before 75. that's was when the cats were installed and non leaded gas was mandated so hardened valve seats were necessary. John Kelsey Dayton Ohio TOA#009

Re: needs 73 98 455 engine specs...

eaded gas is OK you should add lead at every tank full. I do I use CD2. If you don't do this look forward to valve problems at relativly low miles. If I run accross those numbers somewhere I'll get them to you cheers John Kelsey Dayton Ohio TOA#009 --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: From:

Re: AC Question

Milton As I remember even with the fan off. It still runs at a low speed. Part of the flow thru ventilation package. I do know that with the a/c on and the fan on real low a weak system will drop the low side of the A/C below 25lbs. evaporator freezing was psssible hope this helps John Kelsey

Re: AC Question

Marty I don't know about the vista but the toronado used a hold in relay and the A/C does in fact stay engaged until the ignition is cycled. Gas was cheap then. Most of us put in a hidden toggle switch to defeat this feature hope this helps John Kelsey Dayton Ohio TOA#009 --- [EMAIL PROT
