Europa Shift Lever Pivot Bolt & Bushes

Located at the base of the shift lever, the nylon bushings wear out and sometimes disappear completely, causing damage to the pivot bolt itself.  Sloppy gear lever action is usually due to worn out bushes.

And we still have some stock of these ZDDP products:

  ZDDPlus Engine Oil Additive ZDDP

Modern oils are hard on your old engine which was designed to run with motor oil containing ZDDP (Zinc Dialkyl Dithio Phosphate). Unfortunately this additive is no longer used in conventional and synthetic motor oils. 

Just add ZDDPlus to every 4-5 quart oil change and your engine will be protected.  ZDDPlus works with any conventional or synthetic motor oil.  

Closeout price $7.00 per 4-oz bottle


  ZPaste: The ultimate cam assembly lubricant

This lubricant has been specifically developed for the break-in requirements of flat-tappet engines like the Lotus TwinCam.  The special formulation keeps ZPaste on the contact points of the camshaft and tappets, protecting parts from damage during initial start-up.  After dissolving in the oil, the components in ZPaste continue to protect engine parts during break-in. 

You can use this cam lube whenever you have removed the cams for valve adjustments to protect the cam lobes and tappets from scuffing when you restart the engine.  ZPaste will increase the ZDDP level of your oil as it dissolves.

Closeout price $7.00 per 5/8 oz packet
