    1967 7 1/4" axle seals

    Can anyone tell me the part number for the axle seals of a 1967 7 1/4" rear end? It has the retaining bolts on the end, not c clips. Is National 484058 correct? or Centric 41763016? I know that if I can't give them the number at the parts store it's unlikely they will find it. Thanks

    Hooking distributor advance to intake manifold port.

    I'm trying to give my car a budget tune up and enjoy a few drives with whats left of summer. I've been reading/researching and have determined that hooking my vacuum advance to a manifold source is probably the best way to go for my application. Oddly enough what should be the manifold vacuum...

    Charging Voltage?

    Alrighty, I think I may be alright after all. The voltage of the battery before the car was started and after sitting all night was 12.64 volts. Immediately after starting the car it was charging at 14.9 volts, and wouldn't go higher than 15 with increased RPM After the car is warm the...

    Charging Voltage?

    Head unit is removed at this time. I do have an amp, but I assumed it would draw little current without being activated by the remote signal from the stereo. I'll remove the fuse just to be sure. Thanks. (BTW Redfish the new fuel gauge setup works, thanks!) I'll make myself a set of...

    Charging Voltage?

    What is a good way to test the voltage drop across the various points of the hot side? Back probe the connectors? I don't have proper backprobes, but I've always found paperclips to work well. Is there a better way to do it? I got mixed results today. I'm going to start fresh...

    Charging Voltage?

    Load tested the battery, it tested OK. I tried some some tests today and got very inconsistent results. I have a brand new multimeter and brand new volt gauge and at one point I even had 2 different readings between the 2 instruments. I assume one must be a dud. I'm pretty frustrated...

    Charging Voltage?

    So is it safe to run the car like this? Or should I only run the car and test in short intervals? Thanks for the information, it's very helpful.

    Charging Voltage?

    15 volts at high idle. Is it safe to run the car like this to perform testing? I did a few tests but didn't want to run the car very long. Additional ground to regulator does nothing. With the car off I checked resistance across the wire from the alt to the regulator, almost none...

    Charging Voltage?

    Maybe I'm alright. I haven't road tested the car yet, it's showing aprox 13-14 volts idling around the yard, but the car's not warm and may be on high idle. I'll check the ground circuit first. I did the ammeter bypass so the alt runs directly to the battery lug on the starter relay...

    Charging Voltage?

    I've got a 67 Barracuda 273, with what looks to be the original, or at least original style 1 wire alt. (1 wire from the regulator) Read lots of threads on trouble shooting if you're overcharging. I don't remember, however, reading what the charging voltage should be. Can anyone help me...

    2 questions - "Run" only power source/fusible link install

    That's very helpful information, thank you. This is actually where my choke was connected, but I wasn't sure if it was proper or not. I'll run a new wire from the ign terminal on the regulator to the choke.

    2 questions - "Run" only power source/fusible link install

    Run is what I meant. I call the positions of the key "accessory" and "ignition". Not the right terminology I realise, my bad. (I'll fix that up, thanks) The blue wire that runs between the ballast resistor and the regulator is the one you speak of correct? I see now looking at the diagram that...

    2 questions - "Run" only power source/fusible link install

    I'd like to start by thanking everyone. I'm freshening up the butchered electrical in my car and I've got a lot of good info on these forums. First question is where is a good "run" only source to power my electric choke? I had planned on installing a Voltmeter, Oil Pressure and Water Temp...

    Wiper Wiring

    I did just find a picture of a wiper motor online with only 3 connections, the same as mine, so maybe that's the case.

    Wiper Wiring

    I need a hand with my windshield wiper wiring in my 67 Barracuda. The wipers currently work, with a slow and fast 2 speed operation. However I noticed something out of place. I removed the bulkhead connector. There is a terminal in the "d" slot of the bulkhead on the interior side, but the...

    Glove box light? (Barracuda)

    Thanks for the info, and for the diagram. At this point I'm not sure I'll even hook it up. It's not really an essential and it's one more thing to complicate an already overcomplicated system.

    Barracuda Service Manual

    Well it ended up being $40 after the ridiculous shipping and other fees but it's on the way to me. It's an original 1967 Plymouth service manual. I've also found a link to the 67 Barracuda service manual supplement. http://www.asinine.com/cars/67supp/index.html Maybe that can help some...

    67 or 68 Barracuda Instrument Cluster Bezel

    Here is what I have. It's not bad looking, I was just curious to the originality. I didn't know there were so many small differences.

    Glove box light? (Barracuda)

    Thanks for the info guys. I know that any hot feed will work to power it, but anyone know where in the harness it would have originally drawn it's power? I can't find any wiring schematics that depict the dash bulb.

    Glove box light? (Barracuda)

    Does anyone know if a 67 Barracuda would have come equipped with a glove box light? I think my glove box and door may be out of another year Barracuda. My glove box currently has a light, but I can't find one anywhere in the wiring schematic. I'm trying to clean up some of the previous owners...

    67 or 68 Barracuda Instrument Cluster Bezel

    Also In the name of curiosity, my glove box has a small round push button to open it. I believe that the 67's had a square handle or knob from the pictures I've seen. Anybody know?

    67 or 68 Barracuda Instrument Cluster Bezel

    Thanks for the info. Yes PG has them,they're in the area of $400. Thats not even remotly affordable for me right now. I don't mind the 68 one, it's just got a lot of cracks, dimples from over tightening, etc. I managed to make it look allright and hide most of the flaws, I also cut it for a...

    67 or 68 Barracuda Instrument Cluster Bezel

    I have a question regarding the instrument cluster bezels in 67 and 68 Barracudas. My car is a 1967. The bezel that came in the car was for the "roller" style radio, and the car was equipped with a "roller" style radio when I got it. All the pictures I have seen of 67 interiors have the knob...

    Barracuda Service Manual

    Thanks, that's a very generous offer, I appreciate it. However right now I don't really need anything. I just think it would be a good resource to have when starting various projects. There is an original hardcopy on my local kijiji for $20, I should email to see if the person still has it.

    66 Barracuda Park lamps not working

    My grandfater recently aquired a 66 Barracuda. The front parking lamps will not light on either switch posistion. The bulbs are OK, the tail lights light and the front signals function so I'm guessing the problem is either at the switch or a break sometwhere in the wire. Anyone have any ideas...

    67 Barracuda Fuel gauge problems

    Thanks for all the help guys. I think that I can get at the connector to the sending unit easily. I'll give this a try. Would it be a good idea to check for continuity between both ends of the wire first, just to make sure that their is no break anywhere? RedFish, if the gauge is no good...

    67 Barracuda Fuel gauge problems

    Hey Guys, Havent been on here for a while. Hoping someone may be able to give me some tips. I've got a 67 Barracuda, all gauges except for the fuel gauge work. Is there a way to test the gauge without damaging it? Once I know if the gauge itself is functional I can update this post and...
