    Unusual way to bleed brakes. Just might help someone.

    Gravity bleed isn't the same on all vehicles depending on residual pressure valves, stand off valves master and reservoir location,line routes, etc. Also the fluid is moving so slow and with such small volume the air can actually keep moving up the lines as the fluid moves down. In my instance...

    Correct Gear Oil+

    The big deal with GL4 is it is safe for something with brass synchronized. They'd have been right if we were talking about a brass synchro transmission. The transfer case doesn't know the difference. The pressure additives in some gear oils are too sticky, they stick to the brass and continually...

    To make sure we are on the same page. Use a ball smaller than your pipe.Ball inside the pipe hit the pipe above the ball with the hammer, the metal below the hammer will flatten and stretch slightly, stretch,stretch, stretch. A little here a little here, a little here, all the way around and...

    Turn a reciever hitch ball sideways in the reciever. Use the ball as an anvil and use a hammer to expand the pipe. Like a train flattens a penny smack the pipe a few times in on one spot, rotate the pipe and smack it some more.

    Radiator fan and shroud

    I'd say your core support mounts have sagged and your new inserts are s little taller. Maybe the radiator lower mounts are a little crushed also.

    Quadrajet Idle Mixing Screws

    Is the carbureator on or off the car? Off the car, clean and dry I'd try hitting it with propane. On the car I'd use a soldering iron to apply heat use patience and more heat you know mixture screws only effect idle mixture. So push comes to shove leave them alone. Let it be rich at idle.

    Not a fan of gravity bleeding. But using the caliper instead of the master for the pressure source worked and was convenient.

    Disconnect the tach see if it starts. The tach is probably killing ignition pulse.
