Hello Del, wherever you are. See you finally joined the rest of the undead here in LurkerLand. What took you so long? Props to you for putting up with it as long as you did, undoubtedly you have dispensed valuable advice and the community is grateful. Interesting that your absence...

Have not been here for some time. Mopar projects on the back burner, but I would like to add a comment. This is coming from a guy who has lived in 3 Western Canada provinces. Saskatchewan rules! I was born in Manitoba and growing up in the 60's and 70's, we imagined Saskatchewan to be our...

Pertronix module into Mopar distributor, correct? From the sounds of things, your distributor was not installed correctly to begin with. The rotor will remain synced to the cam position, so rewiring to move #1 cylinder 45 degrees will only produce frustration and backfires. It's not difficult...

Are you using this product? http://www.msdignition.com/Products/Distributors/Chrysler/Ready-to-Run/E-Curve/8388_-_Chrysler_318-360,_Ready_to_Run_Distributor.aspx It has a built in module. You do not use the original Chrysler module. The only wire that is of any use to you is the brown wire...

Seem to have a problem after I got this smartphone. Now when I'm browsing the forum I seem to hit everything that I did not intend to hit. So........ If I visited your profile page I'm not really stalking you!

Are they still on as per their website? http://www.myclassiccar.com/blog/2013/06/20/my-classic-car-is-moving/ I'm too cheap to have cable.

And from the 340 vs 360 thread Busted!

4 AM and this is running thru my head. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Kxr3tV-ieyY&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DKxr3tV-ieyY

My friend, you are all over the place here! A 400 B engine has a 4.34 bore and a 3.375 stroke. Mechanical advantage with this stroke would be .265. Given the same linear force of 1000 pounds this would produce 265 ft/lb. torque. This is bested by the 360 LA! Boring/stroking and gearing...

Yup. X2 Given equal linear force from the piston, a longer stroke will produce a greater force when measured in foot pounds. Reason can be found in the simplest machine, the lever. At 3.31", the 340 has a mechanical advantage ratio of about .26 to one where the 360 at 3.58" has a ratio of...

Missing something here. Did you establish that the nephew owned the truck? Or is this just a presumption? That ICBC title search is looking better. If there are family issues in the way, best to back off.

Wow! Actually, not a big surprise. Sometimes the process requires that a claim must be filed, no matter how ridiculous. Might be interesting to counterclaim for the $148? Now, for some social comment; http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8g6zV-FIxGU&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D8g6zV-FIxGU

I'm thinking you should revisit plan A.:burnout:

Good for you! It's time to take a stand on these ridiculous demands. It's a pretty disturbing trend where corporate customers assume you will be available 24/7 with no thought to your views on the matter. In Canada, labour law used to hold you to a 40 hour week which was considered full time...

Actually, a fifth wheel hitch on a mini truck is not that uncommon. I have one on my Ranger that I use to haul this, 19 foot single axle, nowhere near as crazy as it sounds. I do have an example of my own stupidity. Last summer during my move back to Saskatchewan, I needed an enclosed...

Exactly. I'm not sure why I even read these trainwreck threads. I don't even know what we're talking about although I could form my own conspiracy theories.

Cool truck! You could always send it to me in Saskatchewan. Pretty easy to get title on anything over 30 years old, even from out of province.

Remembering Uncle Abe, Uncle Dick, Uncle Alic, Roddy, who never made it back, my dad and Uncle Bill.

Mike, so sad to hear of you loss and now I will extend that to micamac on the loss of her dad. You have a lot of friends here and we share your loss.

Plugs, wires, cap, rotor. Try the old trick of opening your hood in the dark with the engine running. Bet you find a light show.

Happy # 50!

Did that work out for you? Used to have a 73 similar to yours. Best of my knowledge there is no 4 speed that will bolt in and hook up to that transfer case. Might be able to do something with a transfer case swap. I know of a BWT10 swapped in by a guy with plenty of machining, but it...

This looks like a really good opportunity to torture Frankie.:poke: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IqP76XWHQI0&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DIqP76XWHQI0

7.3 Navistar IDI for me. Don't care if it is in a Ford or cornbinder chassis. Rock solid engine although I'm not exactly in love with the E4OD behind it in my 89 E350 bus. 5.9 12V Cummins is also a great engine. Not only found in Dodge pickups of course. Lots of ag equipment used them as...

One turkey coma coming up! Forecast here in Saskatchewan is for rain today and lots of it. Back to sunshine next week and I hope that holds till the snow falls. Still have lots of work to do on the house. Moving can be such a pain!

Nirvana and Kit Carlson, nice work and good info! I'm cranking up the thanks for both of you. SSD would have been all over this. Kinda miss the bearded guy.

Well, I don't think the ignition switch is causing this. You are going to have to dig in with a wiring diagram and some troubleshooting skills. Only clue in your post is that the wires get warm after the ignition switch is turned on. That would eliminate anything tied to battery constant...

EZ wire should have a customer support number. Probably would be a question for them. Taking a guess, the fan-fan wire is likely designed to work with the fan pwr wire and a switch. If you have things routed differently, the wire may be redundant. Other wire sounds like a power source for...

Loved the fake transistor. Did you reuse this feature? I sure would have! Wanted to add my 2 cents about cleaning out the potting from these boxes. I have had good luck with heating the entire assembly in an oven and digging out the softened bits with a pick.

Little more medical advice for you. Another vote for Omeprazole. That stuff really works. Not over the counter, you will need a prescription. I had acid reflux and heartburn for years and by the time I was treated, I had a vallecular cyst growing in my throat. True to form I ignored it till...
