    Manifold Heater for Cold Climates

    I run a Clifford shorty 4v intake and headers on a slant 6. When I got the car I soon discovered living on the coast and temperatures dropped below 55* on a humid day drive-ability was bad, would not idle, and drank fuel like the tank had a hole in it caused by carburetor icing. I used some...

    WHEN TO USE WASHERS DURING AN ENGINE BUILD

    I have often seen lock washers placed between bolt head and a flat washer which makes no sense what so ever. The point of a lock washer is to retard a bolt from backing off by biting into both the head of the bolt which is movable and a solid immovable surface such as a block or such. Use the...

    67 Convertible Top Switch

    Jim Lusk: That is a good option for non-original stock appearing fix. I am still using my top switch in my unrestored 72,000 mi 1982 Mark Cross LeBaron ordered Jan of '82. LOL That is why I made a few behind dash circuit reconfigurations keeping that stock look and function of the 67 Dart.

    67 Convertible Top Switch

    Just an idea: I installed relays to relive the 30 amp load from the top motor dash switch in 2008. Those switches are hard to find, appear to be under sized, and are getting old. Now the dash switch handles very low amperage as a trigger for two relays that do the heavy work. I utilized...

    Goodmark vs AMD vs Sherman vs ??? who makes the best quarter panels?

    I think AMD has two 1/4's, one is full replacement that intersects part way up C pillar and trunk deck filler section at factory seam, and one that is cut just below top crease covering only vertical portion of quarter.

    Check u joints for dry or worn bearings. These will often feel tight, but be worn out enough to vibrate at certain rpm range. I chased a vibration/rumble for a few years that would come and go depending on out side temperature and rpm above 3000; it was front u joint that had one dry bearing...

    Red tenth wheel of odometer indicates this is not original odometer, and was replaced with Chrysler sourced new part reading 00000.0 miles; I would guess by dealer. How do I know this, I had a speedometer problem covered under warrantee in early eighties at ten thousand miles on a new KCar...

    Torsion Bar Issue

    While yo uare at it mic the diameter of both bars, left and right should be the same, and larger than 0.860 inch slant six bar. I’m with others; replace old torsion bars with new parts. I would consider replacing rear springs as well with new units to restore balance between front...

    Plug to Headlight switch

    Thatheadlight switch mess is a result of excessive heat from corrosion and or lose connection. Corrosion acts as a resistancein any circuit; resistance = heat. As forthat switch, it is in a spot that can get wet from leaking windshield or wiperbushing. Also while investigating forwater damage...

    Lingering fuel smell in oil

    After seeingshort trips, never fully up to operating temperature, I suspect this is theproblem. Some rawfuel always finds its way to the oil pan at cold start up, and accelerator pumpshoots before manifold is fully heated contribute to the problem as well as allthe fuel won’t stay in...

    Lingering fuel smell in oil

    Check for carburetordribbling raw fuel into intake manifold after shut down. Summer heat sometimes causes excessivepressure build up in fuel bowl and or boiling of fuel in fuel bowl forcing rawfuel be purged eventually ending up in crankcase.
