    Starter Problem 340

    I had the same problem with our 50 Chrysler. Turned out to be the starter solenoid mounted on the stater. The large steel electro-magnetic plunger would hang up from a weak magnetic field after the solenoid was turned off (magnetic sticking). Solved it by placing a THIN piece of rubber on the...

    Car Audio in Early-A bodies?

    I think the factory dash speaker is a 5"X7"-but leave it hooked up to the factory AM radio (they work better that todays am radios). Put a nice pair of 6X9 in the rear deck shelf. If you want to hide the modern stereo use a remote head mounted on a locking hinge so it will flip down from under...

    Help with leaf springs

    Even the stock mopar springs had a extra 1/2 leaf spring on one side to help even out the torque of the drive train. Do you want it sitting level with no one in the car or with a driver? How full is the gas tank?(I think Chrysler wants a 1/2 tank when you adjust the suspension) No car from the...

    Fan question

    Get rid of the stainless steel flex fan. They do break from time to time. Plus they do not work well with a fan clutch. Sand and paint the OEM fan.

    Pounding ground rods in

    Everyones soil is different but I use a water pipe slightly smaller that the ground rod hooked to a water facet. With water going through it it will "drill" its self down with the water going through the pipe. Then pull it out and put the ground rod in with a few taps. Or at least you can find a...

    Timing WAY off after installing different distributor.

    You may be a tooth off on the gear or check closely to see if the nylon gear (at the end of the shaft) has the cross pin in the same location in both distributors.

    Broken down college kid

    When you crank the engine it automatically bypasses the ballast resistor during "start" and the engine should fire but stop as soon as you let the key go back to "run" if the ballast is bad.

    Raw Fuel Out Exhaust

    catch it in a cup as it comes out-light a match and see if it burns-most likely it is water vapor that is coming out and condensing.

    66 Valiant - stranded on road trip

    The headlight switch has a built in circuit breaker that triggers from to much current (heat). After it cools down it will come back on for awhile and then off-then on. You get the picture. If it is being triggered (with the new switch still) then some thing is wrong with your headlights and/or...

    66 Valiant - stranded on road trip

    And did you replace the alternator with one of the same size (current wise) or did you go bigger (more current)? If you went bigger that can be a problem as the old wire harness is not up to the task of the bigger current flow. If I remember your 66 should be about 25-30 amps.

    66 Valiant - stranded on road trip

    A dead short will cause a fuse to blow-NOW. A almost-but-not-quite dead short will take time to blow. A worn through wire on the brake light may do it-or a wire rubbing the brake pedal arm. Or any wire any were in the car that has been pinched or worn. Or a new electrical option put in the car...

    NICE 65 Mustang for sale or trade

    Look just like the one my brother had-in 1969. But he had the straight six with 3 on the floor. It ate trannys-one every year or so due to soft motor mounts.

    Advice. What brand desktop?

    MAC! The last time I had a windows machine it was Windows 98. I have had two Imacs and will never go back. It will run windows if you want-it never freezes-very good(great) with movies. No worries about a virus and I could go on and on.

    Bend yourself or replace ?

    You can use a wire coat hanger to make a "test fit" before you bend the lines-and make very sure that you have a good quality double flare tool-the cheap ones break off the nub that the tubing goes over
