    Brake ground

    Is there a separate ground to the rear brakes somewhere? My brake lights work 98% of the time but then I'll have someone drive by and say there out or one side is out. Trying to eliminate possible causes. Thanks

    Voltage Regulator

    I need to replace my VR 1V1067 everybody seems to be out of stock. Can anyone recommend a something comparable to the 1067? Running MSD so it has to be electric circuitry thanks

    Trying to figure out AFR reading

    So on my 3rd sensor going into bung it seems to be working. Have idle about 13.5, going down road it's between 12.2-12.8 according to chart that's rich. Pulled #2 plug and it's looking pretty white like it's running lean. Who do I trust, fancy new AFR gauge or reading plugs?

    Pulsing dash lights

    Out the other evening for a cruise and turned my lights on and noticed that dash lights were pulsing. I very rarely have car out at night so lights are never on. I shut car off and lights quit pulsing, only when running. Alternator or voltage regulator maybe? doesn't seem to be affecting anything.

    Turn signal cam

    I just replaced the turn signal switch in 65 Dart. When I turn wheel it won't trigger the cancel cam, it's like it doesn't come close to tripping it. Pulled it apart put back on and doesn't appear to make contact. Everything else works, electrical is fine , contacted company ( Classic Body...

    Not charging

    How do you know if it's the VR or the alternator if your not getting sufficient charge? This last weekend we took the 65 Dart down the river for an overnite stay in La Crosse, WI. I knew my battery was getting bad but didn't realize it was really bad till it crapped out half way there. Thought...

    Temp gauge spiked

    Took 65 for quick spin today to test out my " pump it down" fix for my p.s. pump, half a block away and notice my temp gauge had spiked. Went around the block (with my new improved steering :) and checked temp with my heat gun, everything was fine about 165. I unplugged the temp sending unit and...

    Fuel gauge started not working then working about a week ago, now it doesn't work at all. Did the grounding test no movement at gauge, did a test light at sending unit no power. I had sending unit and dash gauges gone thru a couple years ago and re-calibrated and everything worked great till...

    Horn works, doesn't work

    Looked at a bunch of threads first before posting seeing if I could figure this out (no). 65 Dart factory wheel, I've had this off a few times in past years. Installed a new turn signal cam a few years back. Horn worked fine till last summer, now it kind of hit and miss. If you find the sweet...

    HEI ignition

    I just got my Classic HEI ignition running today. Ran great at first, I was checking timing, pulled off vacuum line suddenly it ran like crap. Hooked vacuum line back up and didn't help, then suddenly it smoothed out then back to running bad. Gave it some gas, at about 2500 to 3000rpm it started...

    Hooking up reverse lights

    Installed new Hurst Pro-Matic shifter, instructions for wiring back up lights a vague to say the least. Picture shows shifter with 4 blades, two are for neutral safety which I don't need. I'm holding the plug in from factory floor shift. White wire is hot, purple not sure, ground maybe. I've...

    Gas gauge

    Bad horn?

    Do horns go bad? hit my horn ring and it didn't work. Got the car last fall and now I'm not sure if I ever checked it until now. How would I check it? Tried to test for power but not sure if it only gets power with horn ring pressed down. 65 Dart if interested. Check back later, thanks
