    Yet another dipstick thread! Yay!

    I have a 74 Dart Custom. In July I swapped in a low-mileage (44K) /6 (from a '71) for the dead original. There were no issues. Changed the oil & filter twice in the first week (donor motor had sat for a while) and checked the oil each time. I;ve checked the oil a dozen times or more...

    Located in New Jersey, 08086. Complete system, includes all underhood components & wiring and what appears to be all chassis wiring under dash and through to trunk; dash controls, ducting, vacuum lines, all plumbing. I would buy a new receiver/drier, it's been open to the atmosphere...

    Armrest pads...75?

    Located in New Jersey 08086. I bought this pair of pads on eBay for my '74 Dart. They are not correct. Not sure what year they are for, but after reviewing countless photos they appear to be 1975+. Plastic backing, holes spaced too wide for a '74, and overall they are longer. Asking $30 +...

    6pk2goDemon: thanks for the photo. And thanks to all who have posted. I am selling the car for a variety of reasons, none are the fault of the car.

    Installing Factory A/C in non-AC '74 Dart

    OK, I’ve run into my first major problem with this install: Hosing layout. This is the configuration on the unit. The AC lines line up well with the existing opening for the heater core lines: However, the AC heater core nipples require cutting a new oblong opening. Not only is there...

    Slant 6 Accessories

    Apologies for being a veritable fount of questions...are the fan, fan pulley & shroud gone yet (as well)? I am learning about bits from my thread on installing OEM A/C in a non-A/C car...will take the brackets for $40, let me know how much more plus shipping for as much of the rest is...

    Installing Factory A/C in non-AC '74 Dart

    Ja I read about the fan & shroud (the radiator is from an A/C car...it runs pretty cool at the moment on a 4-blade fan with no shroud). I wanted to be sure there isn't bracket hardware lying around in the piles I have acquired in the past three weeks before I plunk down more for the /6 brackets...

    Installing Factory A/C in non-AC '74 Dart

    I have obtained the entire system, including dash and underhood wiring, and am hoping to be able to add A/C to my '74 Dart Custom. Aside from replacing the receiver/drier, PAG oil instead of mineral, new green O-rings and possibly drilling a couple large holes in the firewall below the...

    Shudder on hard acceleration - 904

    Changed out the 904 yesterday without any problems...there was a leak in the pan; I may have to switch over to a cork gasket. It solved all of the shuddering problems (yay!), although there's still a vibration at idle that drills into the canter of your skull. In P or N, the motor idles...

    I just bought an entire OEM A/C system (including wiring) to retrofit my '74 Dart Custom, but it's from a V8 car...I'll be needing the A/C bracket & pulley assembly to mount it to my /6. Do you still have it?

    Screaming belt after switching out the alternator

    Exactly the same thing happened tome a week ago. Bought a new alternator from Autozone, put it on, screaming, smoking belts, etc. Took the belt off, alt was frozen solid. Took it back the next day...it spun fine. Put it on the tester, it spun for two minutes, but read FAIL. Replaced under...

    Shudder on hard acceleration - 904

    I wasn't sure it was the problem & didn't notice the kickdown was disconnected until after I'd pulled it. I debated changing them both out but figured I'd take the chance. Part of it was I do not have a load leveller or an assistant to help guide in the trans. It wasn't as obvious a decision...

    Shudder on hard acceleration - 904

    I replaced all of these mounts already, sorry I didn't mention in my post... This is a four-door grannymobile...although I have no way of knowing the service or maintenance history, this car appears to have suffered more from neglect than anything else. It appeared entirely unmolested -...

    Shudder on hard acceleration - 904

    Greetings, I acquired a '74 Dart Custom about a month ago. Odometer reads 116K, slant 6 225. When shifted into any gear the car body would vibrate at idle, and shudder violently through the front end & steering wheel during hard acceleration. The shuddering would abate the when the load was...

    Vibration??

    It's not a vacuum leak, I checked for those after installing the manifold. The motor has a dead-smooth idle at 750RPM, the rest of the car vibrates as though the motor was welded to the frame (it has new motor & trans mounts). The real fun starts on hard acceleration. It appears that the 904...

    Vibration??

    Well, replaced the motor over the course of the past week. Motor runs great; very smooth. I still however have: -- vibration at idle (even after setting the timing and the RPMs to spec.) once dropped into any gear. -- hard shudder on hard acceleration, and very hard shifts. During...

    I think my 225 is toast

    The car is remarkably solid & rust-free, a sprinkling of small rust holes on the surface of both lower rear quarters, some light surface rust in the trunk, but none anywhere else.... the right anchor for the trunk torsion bars is bent, I was going to straighten & then stiffen it with a piece of...
