My 79 loves to have its oil changed at least twice a year and lube the front
end at least that often. Watch your oil pressure since the 1500 engine's
weak spot is the lower end of the engine and a drop in oil pressure has had
severe consequences. I have a weber downdraft and headers on mine, it runs
great in any weather and I drive
it all year round unless there is snow, ice or heavy rain. Good luck and
welcome to the list, there are many very knowledgable people here to help.
