I am from Ithaca so I know the cold & snow and kind of miss it all. Here in CA its the same old same old basically year round. As far as Tara, she called Tommy Hodges too since he did a lot of work on that car and he confirmed 9 qt goes in. I am glad I am retired and have all the time in the world to fart around, because pouring oil into that car takes about 15 minutes per quart with the small entry at the valve cover. Put it in too fast and it spills out. But like weight training, I rested in between sets at half quart and each quart, ha ha.Oil Input by JanDaMan, on Flickr
I thought that valve cover had a "punch out"? In fact I know that it does so those guys must have done something different to it, like drill a bunch of 1/4" holes in it instead of knocking the punch out, out, or in as it were?
Probably because they bolted on a facy polished gismo that wouldn't work with the puch out?
Humm.
You're retired. Stop playing with that bimbo and take the valve cover off and make a bigger oil filler hole in it.
You can send her over her to me. She can help me here. I'll find something for her to do. Maybe she likes snow? The hot tub is the best part of that scene.
