I had one car (hyundai excel) which had the first cat mounted to the bottom of

Hello,
I would like to ask for some knowledge about a 1973 280. I bought it a
few months ago on craigslist. I'm not sure of how many miles it has due to the

If it has a vacuum pump, I'm almost positive it's fuel injected (D-

I think so, yes. I've done it on a V8.
If so, wouldn't the pistons have to be at top dead center to do job?
Yes. I use a 3/4 drive socket set from Harbor Freight for this,

One of those special down under tools since you can only reach

Baking in the scorching Phoenix sun all day while sitting in a parking
