74 vette bulb change
How do you change rear backup bulb on a 74 vette? From the outside or underneath. Thanks. Bill

Not really. Only takes about a quarter turn to loosen it. If the bulb holder hasn't been off in some time, it can be hard to turn. The last time I changed one of mine, I used a channel lock pliers to grab it and turn.

when my 74 is turned off should my oil gauge go back to zero?

I do not think it goes to zero when you turn it off. But when you turn on the ignition ACC it should go back to zero.

Crawl under and take a look. You need to be able to get a hand up under there.
