Apologies if I've asked this before, but have you got oil reports from further back?
Ropey bearings!
What made you decide to change them now? |
I may have inadvertently used a a few tanks of leaded race fuel at Daytona. Unfortunately I couldn’t find my old reports.
At a 112k and quarantine time motivated the swap. I had started down a path of relishing the car by replaced the half shafts, wheel bearings, full suspension refresh, water pump, plugs, belts, engine mounts, alternator, turner skids plates, replaced the headliner, swapped and replaced all the dash parts, steering wheel, rebuilt and refinished front and rear brakes, replaced all stainless brake lines (two lines had developed a bulge), alternator, all hoses, pinion seal, bushings, Leatheriqued the interior, replaced significant wiring that had deteriorated.
The car has been trouble free for for nearly 100k, and by far the most reliable car I’ve owned.
I’d like this car to last another 100k.
