Need some electrical help with my ‘68 Plymouth Valiant 100

In my opinion.

If you are driving the car the brakes are #1

The water leak may or may not be an eminent issue. IF coolant is getting into the oil that would be a bigger issue than just leaking out.

The electrical needs better diagnosis. If the alternator being sent is a direct replacement, swapping that is easy and will rule out the alternator as a cause.

There are a lot of what if's here.

So let us know some of the answers


  1. Are you driving the car.
  2. Is coolant getting into the oil

I was driving the car, but once I saw the brake fluid and antifreeze are both leaking, I haven’t been driving it anymore.

I’m unsure if coolant is getting into the oil. How could I check that for sure? The car needs an oil change badly and it’s pretty low at the moment, but not bone dry.
