I felt a vibration So I put front's on balancer and it called for 12 oz and had a bump in tread so I figure take them off now.

I replaced the Yokohama's I had on mine last year that had on it since 2005.  They were hard as rocks, did not like taking the twisities. if front wasn't sliding ass end was swingin out...

By time I get back the detours for the sinkholes will be lifted both ways and I'll get my road course back..
I love Mopars so much I'm date coding the skid marks in my underwear.

Out enjoying the day today. Some of these farm roads go on forever it seems.
I always look to see what farmers have laying around.  Just don't take pictures you might get a warning shot and I understand that.

Time to do a check up on Max. We have had a great year and put many miles on including some 1/4 mile at a time doing my best at bang shifting(fun).
I had a intake gasket leak sucking oil that I finally cured. The plugs look allot better, plus Mike recommended some hotter plugs even helped more. 3924 Autolite. Usually a ngk or champion fan but these work great.

Here are the compression next post.

Most plugs looked like this. One carbon up a bit.

Imagine some carb tuning could make better.

I was wondering if the oil burning smell was a intake leak or loose oil rings.  Glad just was the gasket..  I had similar problem with that intake and heads, even though it sat flush it still sucked oil up.  Might be able to drop a jet or 2 since it's no longer sucking air from the galley..

Happy Birthday Max. 12-12-66 build date
Customer paid extra to rush it's build to get delivered to Marietta, Ohio. Pottmeyer auto sales.

I wish I knew more from this original owner but it's a dead end.
