Re: The 283 Rebuild Begins
![]() Saturday we tried to clear the oil line to the gauge - by disconnecting it at the cluster, after disconnecting the speedo-cable. After taking the screws out gave up on trying to get the cluster out, as the plastic was very old and brittle, and came to find out (via a mirror and an LED) the very small line was soldered to the back of the gauge anyway. Don't know if this is normal, but I was trying to get it off to blow through with high pressure air to clear some junk that was obviously clogging the line where it connects to the engine. Ended up taking the tube cutter and hacking about 4" off the other end, with the weird little fitting - and sure enough - when we hit the short piece with air a hard little booger came flying out. Now I've got to find a crimp type sleeve fitting that can grab that tube (about .100 outside diameter - with a tiny little hole) that has a 1/8 in N.P.T. end to go into the block, next to the distributor. Ideas? ![]()

Re: The 283 Rebuild Begins
Put the pipes on...
Running it without pipes will damage the valves, but that's more common in colder weather.
