Hello,

You should be able to find 185/65/15 tires and they will not bulge as much as the 195s.

Use 30w (non-detergent, if you can find it) oil in the transmission if it has an overdrive, 90w gear oil if does not have an overdrive.

I only use Castrol brake fluid in both the clutch and brake systems in all of my customers vehicles and it does matter as DOT 3 WILL damage Girling natural rubber seals.
