Yea, meaninig quiet.Electric motor
Try some di-electric grease
better yet just drop a chevy in and be done with it.
If I had ever known that AMC had ridiculous problems such as this, I would have never mess with one. I tried to go the cheap route by replacing my 258 with a 360. Plus I got the 360 for free in need of a rebuild so I can't complain too much. But, I should have known that free would equal some kind of bothersome worries. If I had just bought the $400 worth of adaptors for the chevy, I would never worry about my engine eating bearings b/c of poor oiling issues, especailly in an engine with 15-20,000 miles on it. How retarded.
