Saw this from Chrysler Engineer Dave Zelkowski, had this to say about aftermarket ignition systems- "The ONLY thing they will do for you is lighten your wallet. If there is nothing wrong with the stock ignition components it won't help. If you have some old tired components then it could be a...

This won't clutter a classic interior but will give you GPS navigation, Bluetooth, internet, dash/rear cameras etc. It's a smart rear view mirror. When it's off it just shows time in right corner, swipe it and its a 8" wide display rhat shows the dash cam, swipe again and it shows the rear cam...

I thought I read a smart guys description on reading the points to determine what condensor to use, ie. a pit (-) on the stationary side was too low of a condensor value and a mound (+) was too high? if you got the right condensor/coil you had a longer lasting point setup as there would be...

I have a relay in my Mazda truck that has a unique form factor. It is rectangle, has 6 wells arranged in 2 rows of 3 but they are all parallel tabs. Like cars lined up to stage at the track. BOSCH has some but they are 5 pin in 6 wells and the top center skips =_=. Mine skips the last well on...

Are there any Kenwood audio gurus here? Have an older double DIN w/Garmin nav and the nav screens are all broken links as if there is no map data. It's a 2013 model. Tiny font links say maps are outdated (2013) and new maps are available. I don't care. I want the old (free) maps that cane with...

The stock CD player in so many later models has RES in the lower right corner, it's the base line stereo offering no sat, nav or phone support. Often the radio just stops working (no sound) although the CD and the AUX port work just fine. Many posts on the internet tell you to wire up your...

My review of the 12 pc power steering pump/alternator pulley remover and installer. I bought it to remove a solid gold colored double pulley from a Mopar round back alternator with a solid 17mm shaft that I had 2 of and both alternators were not being used. Opened the box and everything was...

Modding my kids Razor Powerrider 360 motorized drift trike. The controller burned out so I got to rig up something as everyone is backordered. Its a 1 speed controller, just an on and an off with a brake "interrupt" and I don't need the charging circuit as I charge with an external battery...

Anyone run a GM V6 (Silverado, G6, Impala...) that has this staggered 6 coil pack ,,'',, ? Question is do these sockets use standard plug ends? Reason I ask is that these coil packs have the ignitors built in (!, kinda unique for a coil pack) for a much cleaner megasquirt/megajolt install that...

Should I be seeing >13.7 off chevy alternator? My inverter keeps alarming when it goes under 12v.

Who knew? Mopar Red,Blue and Gold OEM boxes from 1972..Red and Blue rev limited!

The RPM limiter and now the retard pills....what is really in there. Is it just a resistor, or a capacitor? Seems you could cobble up a potentiometer if it were a resistor and have a dial-in RPM knob or retard feature. Anyone got one they can throw on a multimeter..or my cool component...

well, more like an "Electronic drop in distributor".....wanna know what makes them tick? A Bosch 4 pin ignition module. Thats about it. Just a module that reads the VR signal of the flying rotor and then drives a coil. remember to use a heat sink compound and a metal bolt/ground from the bolt...

Does anyone have one they can photocopy? I know 'Photofact' made manuals for all types of radios so before I pony up $$ I though I would ask.

anyone know where I can get a clip for this generic Chi-comm "ready to run" HEI distributor? Online sellers dont carry parts. Its about 1 1/8 inches relaxed in its ID. clipped its about 1 3/8

I though we had a few installer here and I wanted to post a question. OG Alpine TDM7534 Head unit: Unit has no ground wire out of the harness so on the bench I hooked a battery charger Neg clamp to chassis and 12V+ to the yellow lead marked ...12V in. Set the charger output to 2A manual and got...

I got 2 but none light up (or work?). Anyone got a schematic for the Bendix/Mopar model 224 (65 A Dodge and Valiant) ? Or any 65 era radio that might shed some light on power path.

Here is a strange one. I installed a stereo head into my mazda (sorry but it may have general interest too) and it works fine until I plug in the antenna lead. then it blows my 10A dash/taillight fuse! This is very strange. I ohmed out the antenna, it has no short between the center conductor...

Not Mopar specific. I have switched 12V power recepticals in my work van that turn off after 10 minutes when key is removed. This does not fare well with my tablet as it almost needs to be charged on a constant basis due to the battery being very weak. My question is: can i safely install a 12V...

My carbed mazda started running like crap, I thought it was ignition so I rebuilt the distributor with new pickup and integrated ecu. Still runs very rough at times, but smooth at others. Im leaning toward a dirty carb now. I looked at opaque filter and its still white, no crap in it. This motor...

My mommyvan alt is making a chirping sound , varies with engine speed. Dont know if it is the bearings or that stupid one way sprag "coupler" on the end that seems to work when I took it off to test, only rotates one way and locks when reversed. Can you lube these bearings without taking off...
