Hey Guys, you may recall i pos.ted about buying a 84 Ram Charger about 6 months ago. I had to replace the heads and just dragged my feet, and finally got it running again. I have a question about how it starts. Its not stock, it has a 360 with a Edlebrock Performer, Hooker Headers and a...

I finally ended up putting electronic ignition on the slant. Found a guy on craigslist selling a Mopar Performance kit for $150. Set up went good except i failed to notice they put the hod down bracket bolt hole in the distributor in a different place. I marked the bracket where the bolt...

YAY, just got a Mopar Performance EI set up (orange box, wiring, dist.) for $150 (from a guy with a sweet little Valiant 100) No instructions with it though, Anybody got a site with the best instructions to install, Mopar Performance doesnt have it on their site.

Hey guys, i called Evens about this, but havent heard back. I ordered a 70 Duster Slant 6 engine harness from Evens. When i called them, he said he had not made one for a while. The Duster has PS, no AC, no other options. The original( or the one that is still on it) middle bulkhead...

Hey guys. My 73 has a issue with the charging system. My battery was dead at work yesterday, so i called AAA and they came to test and replace it. I needed a new bat anyway, but he said it was not getting charged. I didnt see the results though. I checked it this morning, car running, bat...

So, i bought a engine harness from Evens, for the 73 Duster. The questions i have is hooking the ballast resistor wires up. My Duster has a 4 prong BR. The Evens has a 2 prong setup. I called them, no answer. The Dusters old harness has .... Upper right green/w red stripe to...

Hey guys, wondering if anyone has a wiring diagram for a 73 Duster with a electric element rear defogger. Mymopar doesnt show any A body with one on their diagrams. My wiring has been hacked and slashed and i am replacing it, the wiring wasnt there for it when i got it, and there was no...

Hey everyone, looking to upgrade the ignition on the 70 Duster also, cant seem to find a good electronic ignition set up. Someone had a bunch of links on the Slant forum a few weeks ago but i thought they were just a petronix set up. Is this all thats available, or is it possible to get a...

The brake lights quit working on the 70 Duster, so i did some test lighting and found the power was going in, but not coming out of the switch. So i replaced it. I got one from Classic Industries. The brake lights work, but now the flashers wont turn off. I finally just took the flasher...

Hi guys, my brake lights are suddenly not operating on the 70 Duster. My tail lights and turn signals do work, so i was suspecting the switch, so i replaced it. Still no brake lights. It got to dark to continue. I know the wires go into the harness and go down to the connector behind the...

I am getting ready to order a new wiring harness, and other underhood electrical stuff for the 73 Duster i just bought. Its getting a new wiring harness and a new ignition box. There is another electrical connection of the right inner fender, its connected to the alternator it looks like...

Really strange issue last night. The Coronet has been running fine no issues. We went to a club meeting, down the freeway and back 2 miles and some street driving if that matters. I got off the freeway, and everying that cool. I was ideling at the light at the freeway exit and the car...

Probably a dumb question. In the instructions for use without a ballast it states: blah blah blah, Remove the resistor and splice the disconnected wires together at a single point. Do they mean splice the brown ignition wire and run it to the coil, or splice both wires on the right...

SO, i was bored this afternoon, ans since i am a glutton for punishment, i decided to mess with the gauges and sending units. I cleaned the ground strap and contact areas on the tank and fuel line, and checked the resistance on the tank unit. I think i had half a tank and the meter read...

Hey guys, searched but no real answer found. I am taking the distributer out this weekend and replacing the points and re-timing. A few sites i have searched seem to state .020 as the gap and timing at TDC. Is this the best for a 71 Scamp 225? Or would a different gap and either...

Some where, some site had instructions on how to make a replacement resistor set up to get rid of a voltage limiter and get your gauges working again. Anyone know where this was?

So, I replaced the Rear Light harness yesterday, took my time, and it actually worked after i was done. When splicing the wires at the kick panel, i noticed a relay of some kind of relay, mounted a little higher above the rear harness connector, checked the diagram, but it doesnt show it on...

OK, so I got my new harness. looking at the car, and looking at the harness, is kind of overwhelming. For you guys that have done it before, where did you start? Did you lable everything, rip the old one out completely, and match the new one with the old harness, or did you start from...

So, as many of you know i have been fighting a electical short on my tail light circuit on my Scamp. The circuit would occasionaly work, but then blow the fuse, i sometimes need to ride the brake pedal in the morning going to work. Well while digging under my dash to change the heater...

So i cam out of work and put the keys in the ignition, no familiar buzz from my annoying buzzer, turn the key, silence. Hmmm, your not foiling me today Scampy, thank god for remote starter switches left in the trunk. What all is entailed in changing a ignition switch in a non tilt column...

My scamp has started blowing the tail light fuse again. i was checkin git out, unplugged the rear harness, and the high beam switch and put another in, it blew right away. Its looking like its the Headlight switch after tracing the wires. Napa doesnt have one, neither does Shucks. Does...

My 71 scamp /6 suddenly will not start. I thought it may be the starter relay, so i replaced it. Same issue I checked the voltage at the Battery, the relay and the starter. All have 12.83 volts. I was trying to search on how to bypass the Ballast resistor, and how to bypass the NSS...

Yesterday, i was cruising to work and hit a multiple bump in the road, saw a little flash under the dash and the lights, clearance, and as it turns out the tail lights went out. I looked at the fuses today and the one that handles the tail lights keeps blowing as soon as i put it in, the 20...

I pulled the voltage limiter off the back of the dash to look at it, it is a 3 pronged one, but there is a 4th wire that comes off the panel somewhere below, does anyone know which slot it goes back into, i couldnt see when i pulled it off. 71 Plymouth scamp

So, i just got a new house with a garage (woo hoo). I was going to arrange the garages stuff, and didnt feel like starting the Scamp. So i unlocked the steering wheel and rolled it out of the garage, the driveway slopes. After 4 or so hrs of doing that and some other house stuff i was...

I want to thank everyone who offered suggestions to my problem today. I went out at lunch after I was told about the Ammeter having all the power from the whole system going to it. I reached under the dash and the connections were loose. i hand tightened them and tried starting, and the...

Ok, before I start this, let me say i am a electical dork, electicity is FM to me. I have been a mechanic since i was 15, now 41, but i have never really understood electical stuff. And the post is long to try to exlpain the car and how it is usually operated. Now, for whats going on with...
