General Pinto Talk / Lucas Oil Additive

What are opinions on Lucas Oil Additive?
A local mechanic suggested this for our 1978 Pinto.
He also suggested HEET for gas tank.
? Thoughts?

Cool. Thanks. For now I'll make an extension using spade connectors. That should get me by until I find the correct plugs, or you find them. I have one old engine buried in snow and ice that may have the correct ends, but I haven't had the time or good enough weather to go look.

There is an old, closed junkyard that is about 30 miles from me that has a 79 wagon that may have what you are looking for.  It's hard to get access and the owner is really old and had open heart surgery.  I will see if I can get access and see if that connecter is available.  It might be a while as I work out of state and not home too much these days.  It may be Spring before I get a chance to scout it out.

I'm having problems finding the connector ends I need. Anyone have a source? I've tried a couple local parts places and rock auto and eBay. Its the end of the short alternator harness. I already have a new alternator end. I want to build a short extension harness that will use a female and male end like pictured so I don't molest the original harness.

Any idea how many Pinto's will be attending? We are hoping to be there for at least one day as a Pinto Stampede is on our bucket list.

i did not have a Rallye but was already a pinto guy when i found one in a junkyard near me .. i liked the factory tach and took the dash out of it and put it in my regular 80 model car..  25 years ago  i wrecked that car and gave it to a friend who was starting a backyard junkyard .. now i need clutch pedals for my 5 speed changeover and and i went to see him and he had sold everything for scrap years ago .. burned me up .. there are pedals on EBAY but the seller wants much too much for them .. i will make a set if need be ..

No progress to report but there have been signs that Spring is coming.  I know there are several more weeks of Winter, but every day gets us closer to the end.  I am looking forward to working on my project again.  The next major progress will include bodywork and paint so I need it to get and stay warm.  There will be other smaller details I can work on but the major progress will be after paint has been sprayed.

So I was stymied at the alternator wiring last time I was looking at it. I couldn't figure out why the plug at the alternator wasn't matching with any plugs in the wiring harness. Today I took another look. It seems when I put in the new harness pulled from a 2.3 engine car, I didn't look close enough. Best guess is the 2.3 engine has the alternator on the drivers side compared to the 2.8 on the passenger side, and I didn't have a 2.3 engine with an alternator to compare to the 2.8 in the car. So now I may have to reroute the wiring harness, or extend the wires from the alternator plug to reach to the plug on the drivers side. Which is what I think will be easiest... Going to look a little closer after supper.
