“I have 3 vehicles with oil bath air cleaners. I really like them.”
I had one decades ago. Hated it.
Yes, manual chokes, and my dad taught me how to drive on an old Chevy wagon with a 3 speed column shifter. Tire iron was under the seat in case the linkage bound up.
Though I never had a step on starter some of the diesel trucks I drove had a step on Jake brake. And a split axle. Lots of related dairy farm stories as well, praise God.
“I have a 1998 version of oil level warning “
Level or pressure?
What car?
As a young man I drove a 64 Ford heavy dump truck with two transmission. Instead of a two speed axle splitting each gear, the second transmission split each gear 3 times. Talk about a nightmare to learn to drive. But I did it. It was an awful lot of double clutching and listening to the engine RPM’s knowing when to do it.
The first transmission was a 5 speed, the second a 3 speed. So in essence it was a 15 speed.
I had a snow blower truck with three transmissions. When blowing snow I put it in low, low, low. It went so slow I could get out, walk up front to the blower, start taking a leak. By the time I was done the trucks cab door would be beside me and I just got back in it.
Level I think. 98 Firebird. The old sending unit prob I think.
Perhaps there is another problem....... Ford and UAW
