As someone else said, it depends on the car. There was a period when Pat was using our Morris Minor as her daily driver, and we were experiencing some shakedown problems. It turns out that there is a

I'll second that suggestion. Mine is great. Noisy as hell, but works just fine on sheet metal. You'll probably want an in-line oiler for it, and it *will* get the metal oily.

Yeah, they work. They're kind of messy and waste a moderate amount of grease. Not really any cleaner, but I think they probably do a better packing job. There's another sort that I've seen that's a c

What you're looking for are called "pip pins". Here's a decent link: http://www.jergensinc.com/pins2.htm (But, as you'll see, if you'd googled for "ball detent pin", you would have found this, too!)

"Look like" is the key here. Sandblasting tends to remove the sharp edges from the electrodes - and those sharp edges are important for good spark production. I also used to get really tired of remo
