Converting New Vehicles to Synthetic Motor Oil

Got yourself a nice new car? And you want it to last a really long period of time? Thinking about making use of synthetic lubricants to obtain the most life out of your investment? Right here's what I advise.

For gas engines, the initial five hundred to one thousand miles must be driven on the factory loaded oil. At this point we advise changing that oil and filter to your selection of synthetic motor oils as well as a high quality high effectiveness oil filter. Altering the factory filled up oil and filter very early removes impurities and also particles left from the production process Currently you might question why so few miles, what about break in?

The reality is with modern-day metallurgy as well as manufacturing methods break-in really does not take as long as it used to. Without being to technological, break in has as much to do with the number of warm cycles (the number of times the engines been cold and hot) as does the variety of miles driven permitting the components to "use in." Place the artificial in at five hundred to one thousand miles, your engine will certainly be just great as well as live much longer too!

Can I just placed synthetic oil in the engine immediately?

Yes, you can and several engines are manufacturing facility filled with synthetic oil.

However since petroleum motor oil of Redline Oils has reduced film toughness it is really far better for breaking in the engine than artificial What concerning the transmission as well as differential(s)?

Essentially there is no requirement to wait. Transmission, manual transmission's and also differentials can be changed today.

If your automobile has a transmission as well as a lot of your driving is city usage altering to a synthetic transmission fluid can significantly extend the life of your transmission.

Think about that with stop as well as go city driving your transmission is regularly changing backwards and forwards via the gears and moving torque lots from dead stops through the transmissions equipments. A large workout for your transmission!

Synthetic automatic transmission fluid supplies a lot better defense from wear as well as the high temperatures of quit as well as goes driving or from pulling hefty lots than conventional oil transmission liquids as well as can greatly prolong the life of the transmission.

Transmission are most quickly transformed on a fluid exchange maker which completely changes every one of the transmission fluid including what's in the torque converter removing the large majority of pollutants at the same time.

Many auto stores as well as oil change centers have fluid exchange machines for altering out the fluid in transmissions and over the life of your vehicle it deserves paying the expense having the liquid changed out. Amsoil inc. presented the very first American oil Institute rated synthetic motor oil in 1972 and is considered the globe leader in synthetic lubrication.

Bringing a Quadrajet four-barrel back to life

Aren’t barn and garage finds wonderful? A diamond in the rough sitting there lost to another time. The good news is you found them and you have an opportunity to have a lifetime’s experience. Two Corvettes asleep all these years. In truth, there’re a lot of them to be found out there. They were hot-rodded, blown up, smashed in accidents and many times just parked as family heirlooms put away for another day and then forgotten.

The downside of a garage find is the deterioration caused by the vehicle sitting around for a long time. Much like we humans … use it or lose it applies to vehicles, too! As such, cars like to be driven. Most garage finds are in pretty bad shape and haven’t been protected from the elements. We know what these elements are: freezing, thawing, humidity, dust and dirt on the wind and ozone and other the elements in the air that make things age. It all finds its way to a stored automobile, even in an enclosed garage. These gems have been sitting for so long, sometimes for decades, to where it’s challenging to get them running again. Some are beyond salvageable and must be torn apart because, unless they have been stored in a dry environment out of the weather, chances are good they are rusted and seized up internally. Game over.

As future articles will point out, the staff at Vette came across two Corvettes (a 1968 and a 1971) that were stored for decades (the ’68 for 37 years and the ’71 for 25) that had been napping in the dry desert for a long time. We’re in the process of returning these American classics to service as driveable automobiles. How you return a vehicle to service when it has been sitting for a long time depends on how it was stored in the first place? If it was parked with a half tank of gasoline the verdict is grim because you’re going to have to get rid of the bad gas and freshen up the fuel system to even get the thing to fire.

There are also engine, driveline and brake system issues that must be handled for safe operation. From the fuel tank to the carburetor you have a lot of work to do. The engine oil and filter must be changed, same with the transmission fluid. Old coolant, if it’s even still there, will have to be changed out with fresh 50/50 coolant. Rotted hoses, all of them, will have to be replaced. Differential lube should also be changed out. It’s a good idea to remove the spark plugs, perform a tune-up, pour a teaspoon of 30-weight oil into each cylinder and slowly hand crank the engine to make sure everything is loosened up. Ideally, you would also pull the valve covers and pour engine oil over the rocker arms and valvesprings to ensure a slippery start-up with minimal metal-to-metal contact. (Another way to get the oil flowing is to grab your handy ARP oil pump primer tool, pull the distributor and spin the oil pump until oil works its way up top.) It doesn’t hurt to perform a compression check, either, just to make sure you don’t have any valves stuck open from the long sit.

We’re beginning this wake-up process by rebuilding a pair of Rochester Quadrajet carburetors from the two Corvettes. We’re at Hot Rods by Dean in Phoenix to ensure this process is performed properly. Each Q-jet will have to be disassembled and boiled out, with their passages and boltholes chased before a complete reassembly and tuning.

Engines don’t run well—if at all—with gunked-up carburetors because automotive fuels, especially today’s fuels laced with destructive ethanol, do incredible damage to carburetors when they sit for a long time. Ethanol damages the die-cast causing excessive corrosion and permanent damage. This is why a complete carburetor teardown and rebuild with new soft and hard parts is so important.

To help us out we visited our local Edelbrock dealer and picked up a pair of Q-jet rebuild kits. From there it was a matter of remove, disassemble, clean, rebuild, install and go for it. Amazingly, both cars responded.

We used an old power steering reservoir to hold fresh gas, and—resembling a military triage center—the gasoline was gravity fed to the carbs on both engines. From here we did change out the engine oil and filter with 6 quarts of AMSOIL products, installed a fresh Optima battery, aired up the tires, and went through some basic electrical checks. We also spun both engines over by hand at first to make sure they weren’t frozen (and they weren’t) and proceeded.

The ’71 was the first to have its carb rebuilt, and amazingly on the second crank it fired, belched out some foreign matter and blue smoke from the exhaust but shortly it settled down. Bob Kleiner deftly fine-tuned the carb and soon it began to run smoother and quieter … job well done.

Then it was on to the ’68. We were feeling pretty good about our mechanical prowess … well, truth be told, we stood around while Kleiner proceeded to prep the ’68 and then fire it up. Again, a couple of cranks and it, too, came to life. Truly amazing. Well, there will be more on this saga of the non-identical Corvette twins coming back to life but for now they’re (and us) off to a good start.

1. Dean Livermore of Hot Rods by Dean (left) and Bob Kleiner are going to tackle a couple of decades-stored C3 Corvettes in an effort to get them roadworthy once again, beginning with a couple of dusty-crusty Rochester Quadrajet carburetors.

2. This is your basic period Quadrajet at the beginning of tougher federal emissions standards enacted in 1968 with a controlled-vent fuel bowl before GM went to evaporative emissions control. For an atomizer that has been sitting a while this Quadrajet looks pretty good and should be able to be returned to service with ease. The Quadrajet was conceived as an emissions carburetor, not for performance. If you know how to build and tune a Quadrajet, this is a carburetor that will perform very well.

3. Disassembly begins with the removal of the fuel filter at the inlet. The fuel filter’s condition will be a clue as to what to expect inside. Expect to see scale corrosion from ethanol contamination if the car was parked in recent years. Bad fuel kills fuel systems with corrosion and gum.

4. The choke and pull-off assembly are removed next using a cross-slot screwdriver.

5. A handful of cross-slot, fine-thread screws are removed and the air horn comes off. Be mindful of the little tiny pieces that can get lost. Be sure to account for every part.

6. The idle mixture screws are removed next. Mark them and return them to the same location during reassembly.

7. The accelerator pump check ball and fitting are removed next. Place these tiny parts in a magnetic tray for safe keeping. Obviously, the brass isn’t going to be magnetic but you get the idea. There are no unimportant parts.

8. The float needle valve and seat are next, once the float has been removed. We are going to replace the float with a new one from the Edelbrock kit, which has everything for your Quadrajet.

9. The main metering jets are removed next with a cross-slot screwdriver. If you can’t get them loose, soak them with a penetrating lubricant, which is available from AMSOIL or through Summit Racing Equipment.

10. Catch all the vital carburetor parts in a magnetic tray or deep plastic food dish. It is a good idea to take an inventory during the clean-up process to make sure nothing walked off.

11. The main body is separated from the base as shown using a #2 Phillips screwdriver. Expect to have an entertaining time removing the old gasket material. Be mindful not to scratch any contact surfaces. Be very gentle. Scratches and scoring mean leakage.

12. We’ve opted for the Edelbrock Quadrajet rebuild kit (PN 1920) for our restoration. Everything you’re going to need is in this kit.

13. Our Quadrajet has been boiled out and is in pristine condition for assembly. Dunk the carburetor parts and give it 30-60 minutes of high-frequency buzz time. These parts come out looking like new. All the passages have been chased by Kleiner and we’re ready for assembly.

14. The Quadrajet base plate is checked for wear and irregularities. We have a good core. The shaft bushings and throttle plates have been inspected.

15. The idle mixture screws are lubricated with a penetrating lubricant and reinstalled. Gently seat these needle valves, then back them out 1 1/2 turns for the initial start-up. Proper adjustment is achieved after the engine is fired up and gets up to operating temperature.

16. The base gasket is installed next. This is a nice, thick gasket that will not waver in its function. Snug the screws in crisscross fashion, then tighten completely.

17. The choke fast idle cams and pull-off assembly are then reinstalled. The fast idle speed will be adjusted once the engine is fired.

18. The main metering jets have a penetrating lubricant applied to the threads before they are reinstalled. Check to make sure the jet sizing is correct. You want factory suggested jet sizing depending upon where you live (elevation) and engine modifications, such as cam, intake and compression ratio.

19. The float valve seat is installed and snugged; again, using a quality penetrating lube.

20. The new Edelbrock float is installed and adjusted to specifications in the instructions. For the most part, the float level should be perfectly level with the carburetor body’s top deck.

21. The main metering rods and piston are seated next. Again, you’re going to want to know jet and metering rod sizing. Ascertain the proper size before going any further.

22. The main body to air horn gasket is installed along with the accelerator pump piston.

23. The air horn and main body have been mated and we’re on the home stretch. The air horn screws have been snugged crisscross, then tightened. This approach prevents warping. A new fuel filter is installed next.

Need help deciding which drive shaft is right for you?

If your drive shaft is not properly sized for the tire diameter and differential gear ratio along with how & where you drive, you could experience problems with breaking the universal joints or other components in the drive shaft. We don’t want you to have problems.

The following is our suggestion, which requires a little math and for you to be honest with yourself about where and how you drive.

Use this formula; 20,168 divided by the tire diameter then multiply the result by the gear ratio of the differential. For example 20,168 / 37 = 2,234. If the number you come up with is near 2,500 and you do not beat the vehicle, you should be OK with a 1310 series drive shaft. If you drive it hard, we suggest the 1350 series. If your number happens to be less than 2,200, we strongly suggest the 1350 series.

If your number happens to be 2,500 and you do beat the vehicle but want to save a little money, consider this compromise. Run a 1350 on the rear and the 1310 series on the front. Some compromise can be made on the front drive shaft because when the vehicle is climbing a hill where there is more load on your drive train, the weight of the vehicle tends to transfer towards the rear and the front drive shaft is typically less loaded.
