Took both Pontiacs on about a 40 mile run to get some burgers and deep fried cheese curds. More of a test for the GTO than anything. Runs just as good as when I parked it in February.

If you have drum brakes in the he rear, try backing off the self adjusters a hair. Sounds like the passenger side is grabbing a little and your actually fighting the clutches in the Posi.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
