HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone Im sure we have recovered from the

rigors Of the Holidays and are now ready to face the rigors of

a new year - - 1993

Several TCA members showed at the Tech Session January 16 at

Barry Cunninghams garage One thing about LIFE isthat you are

never too old to learn new techniques and ways to do a mechanical

job There were a lot of advisors on hand for this session

One cylinder head was removed also an engine was removed and reshy

installed with a used flywheel housing and flywheel In spite of

all the mostly good and bad advice the jobs were done over a long

period of time Everyone was congenial and the gals furnished some

sandwiches goodies and coffee Also a few good stories were told

of course out of hearing distance of the gals

See you at the next meeting - Jarluary 27

TECHNOTES 00lJ) TIlE VAR-SOL by Ken Bunnell

Never again will I flush out a Corvair differential with varsol It ndnecl both seals on the pinion shaft the a-rings on the side ca rrier bearing adjusting nuts and the a-r ing on the pinion shaft adjusting nut

This stupid mistake was made when I converted my 64 convertible from q-speed to automa tic As a resul t the powerglide kept pumping transmission fluid into the differential

The 23rd of November the si tuation was taken care of when all new seals and o- rings were reinstalled in the differential You better believe I checked the bearings and races for scratches or pits None were found Bearings and races were in excellent condition So are the sea ls and o-rings To bad I had to spend another eight hours re-doing things Shes in great shape now though

ROCKER ARM WBRICATION by Ken Bunnell

When installing rocker arms new or lIsed check the oil hole in the end of the rocker arm the end that the push rod fits into These holes can be covered with metal flash a t the time of lTIanufacture If your vehicle is an oil hllrner carbon can plug this hole Clean them before using Now provided your push rods are not plugged you will get full lubrication to the top of the valve train

Go t some frozen bol ts like exhaust pipe nuts calise you didnt use brass type see your GN dealer and get a can of general purpose Penetrant and Heat Valve Lubricant part 111052627 Spray it on wait about a half hour and have at it It works
