Okidoki, thanx! Well the car was parked on flat ground & there was no leak before I came there, clean ground & that's more than ome can say about how it looked when I drove home. Lucky me I have more than one car so as time passes I'll get to it...

Bought my first day after x-mas -78, raced it a lot, fast thing with its slant that I don't have much clue what was in it but I won over a few V8 Mustangs... never liked the ones from -67 & up so exept for a sad -75 I only had the ones from 1960 to 1966. Here's my first: (later on I put a Hemi...

In 2012 I swapped the -77 318 & 904 for -89 roller cam 318 & A500 & replaced all seals, new frost plugs, engine + trans oils & filters & so on & since then it's been doing fine as daily driver with oil & filter changes... I was visiting a friend some days ago & he complemented me on my car...

I have 3 318's, 2 from -89 roller cams in cars & 1 solid from -77 sitting & while I was cleaning the roller lifters in one a guy said roller cam engines are Magnum engines... That pussled me as I never though so, what's the correct answer?

I ohm-measured two not connected modules / "ECU"'s; one original MoPar & one chinese (I think the chinese is called "Standard") & got these results: Anybody else who's done it too & is bold enough to post it here?

Well in my simple mind I reckon I need to know how to measure the ECU non-connected.

One's a -56 New Yorker & one's a -55 Studebaker & yep; it's LPG but runs on gas also if I want.

By "coil tower wire" you mean the one going to the distributor? Done that at first, no spark from the coil, that's where I get pussled since the ballast resistor & coil both do get 12v... & nope; there aint no computer in any of my cars. & one thing I wonder is when people write that the coil...

Didn't see this unti... eh... just now... here are my two:

It's a single resistor & I've put extra ground wire from the module to the engine, sharp starlock washers & all. I don't get spark fronm the coil. & the module / ECU looks exactly like this, even with the text & is new: (no AC & no conv top) & if you re-read my original post there's a question...

The HEI that some ex owner put in died (no big surprise) so I put MoPar original stuff in & it fired right up & ran good! So I drove it a little & then left it but next day it started run bad & then worse & then not at all... So I've been trying 4 different coils & tried all wiring but I don't...

So it does make it easier to understand who responds to if the whole sentence is there, not just the name? I thought "TC" had to do with the overdrive gear in the extra housing at the back & that the rest / front of the trans is just a ordinary 904 or 727 & that that would be where the...

Hmmm... So what you're saying (or rather writing), Ant, is that the overdrive is the reason for the need of +4..?

Ah, that sure makes life a lot easier since not every shop has +4 in stock. :thumbsup:

Ok Kim, it's from -89.
