Mobil One on the gear lube.
My 3:31 AMC 15 twingrip had 106,000 on it when I put it in and it still works like new!

Looks like yours too! Shiny rear cover cleaned up the rest. The only difference is I used polished stainless allen/button head bolts, had to reseal it three times, could not get it to stop leaking.
Ended up using the "right stuff" no more drip!

I wanted to raise up the rear end because the tires were rubbing and I didn't want my girlfriend to think she was fat.  So I took AMX39068 advice and had my new leafs re-arched to add 2" to the height.  I didn't rebuild the re-end, but it will be a lot easier to take the rear-end out if I need to since I won't be dealing with 45 years of rusted u-bolts.  Also, I finally got the vacuum wipers working!

So after a lot of traveling, I've finally gotten back to the car and want to start getting the timing down. I seem to be having a problem getting a read on my RPMs.  I have an old engine analyzer which was working, but since I shipped it here to GA from CA, I'm thinking maybe it was damaged.  So for $23 i got what looks to be almost a brand new one off of ebay.  So 2 Craftsman analyzers, set on RPM, low range, new batteries, wire clamped around #1 plug wire and still not picking up the RPMs.  I bought a tach and hooked it up to the coil and it was able to read the RPMs.  I've hooked the timing light up to the #1 plug wire and it's picking it up and flashing it's strobe.  Does anybody have any clue as to what might be the problem with the engine analyzer not picking up RPMs?]]> Wed, 15 Aug 2012 16:34:45 +0000 http://theamcforum.com/forum/1965-american-330_topic33169_post384783.html#384783
