Hi again,
We should have the Packard up & running by tomorrow morning. Touch wood. Roll pin replaced. Who knew a $2 part could cause such a headache. One more question, seeing as you guys are so awesome. What weight engine oil would you recommend for operation in a tropical (25-30 degrees c)climate? Our distributor suggested a Penrite straight 40 weight shelsley medium oil. I read on the forums about Chrysler recommending a 50 weight but is that relevant? Any suggestions from the men who know?
Thanks again for all your help. Regards Vik
