Re: Gas tank cover for 1918
The cover on my 1917 tourer is sheet metal and hinged at the rear with about a 1" finger hole to lift it up in the middle as well as a hole over the gas cap

I am interested in best performance & dependability. I am a new owner of a 1917 touring car.

Dip stick?
Snyder's sells a oil dip stick kit, so you don't have to go under the car and open the petcocks to check the oil.
Do any of you have experience with one?
Are they accurate?
Any recommendations for or against installing one?
At 83 I don't like crawling under the car any more than necessary.

Re: Engine oil & coolant
Thanks, guys---I appreciate the responses---Looks like I will try 10-30 oil & 50/50 coolant
The last owner told me he used some type of hydraulic oil in it (hope it hasn't done any damage).
