Re: Installation of MotorMeter

Yes minimal pressure...but pressure will prevail! I know this question on the Motometer seems simple when compared to the array of more complex issues that can arise when restoring a TC....I have been there & spent endless hours understanding & educating myself, but I am very anal when it comes to g...

Re: Installation of MotorMeter

Sorry, if the rad gets into a full over heating situation (boiling) the overflow tube will handle most the expanded fluid but there will still be some pressure on the underside of the cap...hence why bother with the rubber o-ring that seals the cap to the rad neck?

Re: Installation of MotorMeter

Thanks for the reply Steve. Yes what you say makes sense...however, my new Motometer did not come with a washer so securing it on the underside of the rad cap with just the brass nut against the rubber seal wouldn't tighten it correctly, therefore figured it must go on top of the cap under the meter...

Location of Gas Tank rubber mounting set (5 pieces)

While my gas tank is out being cleaned, sealed & pressure tested, I thought I would install the ‘5 piece rubber mounting pads’ for the tank on the frame rails & the body back board. Can anyone tell me the exact location of the top horizontal rubber pad & the two left/right vertical pads. If my memor...
