Gentlemen (and ladies),
I've been a member of this list a LOOONNGGG time
(since around '98, if memory serves). Last week I
shot out a cry for help regarding my '66 327, and what
I thought might be a valve tap or something related
happening at 2K RPMs.
Everyone provided some great input, but 2 folks came
forward suggesting for me to check the torque
converter bolts, as they'd had the same issue and that
seemed to be the problem for them. Well tonight, I
finally escaped wife and daughter and was able to get
out to Long Tall Sally to check the torque converter
bolt status. What I found had me pretty shocked: one
of the three bolts was really loose, and one was
completely MIA!!! I went for the infamous coffee can,
dug out a new bolt and washer, and got everything back
together..
Although I haven't had a chance to do a test run yet,
to confirm this was my issue, it sure sounds like a
pretty good sign. I have to tell all of you that this
would probably have been the LAST thing I would have
suspected to be the problem- But as I mentioned in
the title, you guys definitely know your $h!t, and I'm
really appreciative. Stay Tuned.
Regards,
Jim
