I've had my car sitting since January, everything worked fine back then. Now, I can't get my car started. It almost wants to fire the first couple of cranks, but never actually does. After more cranking, there is no indication that it wants to even start. I'm getting good fuel, spark from...

Just wondering what size exhaust piping I should be running behind a stock 273 2bbl. Been wanting to do a dual exhaust system for a while from the manifolds back. Thoughts on H or X pipe? Is it even necessary with a stock motor like mine? Undecided on mufflers too, any suggestions would be...

My bro just purchased a '71 Dart. He's having issues with his power steering (jerky movement and wandering steering wheel while driving). He decided to replace the old power steering pump with a new one. However, the pulley from his old pump is pressed on, while the new pump from napa is...

Looking for a windshield washer hose T for a '68 Dart. Thanks.

Not mine, but I've seen this one driving around town several times. http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/3237010041.html

Started hearing a new noise from my engine about a week ago (sound was intermittent, didn't always make the noise). Sounded kind of like a coffee grinder running in my engine bay. Noise was definitely coming from the right side of the engine (from in car perspective). I noticed the alternator...

Pretty entertaining ad for a '72 Duster. http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/2362585990.html

Ok, here's a new one. I've posted pictures on this forum many times with zero problems. Now, FABO is saying that since my pictures are above the maximum allowed resolution, I have to manually reduce the res in order to post them. This is the first time I've seen this error message on FABO...

Anyone having problems uploading pictures to their Pic Gallery? Every time I try and upload a pic (after browsing for it), the upload progress indicator just keeps going round and round. The photos in question never upload (waited over 5 minutes). I would like to update my gallery, but I...

I have a buddy who owns a '65 Polara 4-door hardtop (yes, not an A-Body). He's looking for a replacement throttle cable for his 383. He has a 4 BBl Edelbrock and 727 Auto. He can't seem to find one at any parts store, so I thought I'd check on FABO too see if anyone has, or knows where he can...

I've been having a reoccurring issue since May with my car refusing to start after sitting more than 5 days. I used to be able to let this car sit for months at a time and start it up with only one pump of the gas pedal. Now, I can't let the car sit more than 3-4 days, or it won't start...

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/1911359393.html Not sure if this is my old Duster or not, but looks pretty darn close. Car is located near where I sold it (10 miles away). Sold it 7 years ago for $3,000, new owner wanted to restore it for his 16 year old son. There are some minor...

I was looking through some of my Dart's files and came across this invoice. What does "WHITE HAT SPECIAL LESS VINYL ROOF" mean? Is that just Chrysler language for: no vinyl top?

So, about a month ago my Dart refused to start after running fine the day before. I assumed something may be wrong with the ignition. It has an aftermarket electronic ignition transplanted from my old duster. This is the type of ignition that has the magnetic sticky tape that goes around the...

The dart has been acting up lately, i.e. won't start. The only way to get it started, however, is to pour some gas into the carburetor. The car starts, but runs really rough, it doesn't want to idle correctly without pressing on the gas a bit. After a while I can drive it around the block and...

I'm going to repaint the grille on my Dart. The flat black has become a bit faded in spots, so I would like to throw on a fresh coat. Now, since I will be painting it anyway, I was thinking about changing the color scheme. After looking at various Dart's on the internet, I've narrowed my...

Working on the seats next, found an upholstery shop in Portland, Oregon that has the correct fabric and vinyl for my Dart. Found the build sheet under the driver's seat, but I need to piece it back together. As it turns out, there is tape on the underside of the sheet, I guess the previous...

Hello, I'm painting my dogdish hubcaps, just the inserts. I would like to know what to do about the center ring (arrow). Should I paint it flat back, red, or leave it as is? I'm not even sure if this ring was ever supposed to be painted--no signs of residual paint at all. In addition, does...

As the title says, I discovered today after washing my car, that the windshield is leaking. I installed new carpet a few weeks ago, so I wasn't too happy. The leak appears to be coming from the drivers side, just above the lower right corner of the windshield (vertical part). I'll provide...

Hello from California, New to the site, but I already feel at home. Been a fan of Mopar's since I was a kid. I have owned 2 myself ('71 Duster and '68 Dart 270). I sold the Duster back in '03--318, 4BBl, Comp Cam, Headers & Flowmaster exhaust, cragers. Car was in the family since '71. I...

Hello, I have a '68 Dart 270. For quite a while now the fuel gauge has always read about E, even with over half a tank of gas. Now, I've taken the sending unit out to see what the problem is. I immediately noticed some fluid inside the plastic float, I assume it's gasoline. Is that normal...
