The Pilot Sports on my C4 will flat-spot terribly if the car sits for a while. Same is true to a lesser extent with the Kumhos on my Blazer.

Yokohamas on my '63 haven't shown this problem, nor...

This thread is pretty stale now (been a while since I've checked in here), but my experience persuaded me that Stabil didn't solve the problem with Ethanol-laced fuel.

Welcome to the Barn and to the C2 family.

I've never seen any American made vintage 4-speed manual transmission that had a dipstick. Certainly I've never seen one on a T-10.

I don't, but I'm curious about which LEDs you chose, and how they perform. Do they have a vertical cutoff that's similar to the originals?
