Thanks for the advice.

Thanks, Dana!

I have a 65 A100 pickup with a 225 engine three speed tranny. I'm not sure how many quarts of oil it takes. Also, would there be any problems using a 5-30W synthetic in the engine? Thanks

I have a 65 A100 with a slant six 225. I'm confused as to the correct orientation of the dip stick handle. When I put it in one way, the oil reads beyond full. When I flip the handle and install it the other way, it reads oil is low. Is the dip stick in the correct orientation if the markings on...

Thanks for your response. I will check the vent line.

Thanks, I think my vent is attached to the filler neck but will check to see it is not plugged.

Mine is a 65 A100 pickup.

i have an A100 slant six pickup. Two times now after driving, fuel is spitting out from the filler neck. This doesn't happen when filling the tank only while or after driving the truck. Once while I was at a stoplight and a guy told me my truck was spitting out gas, another after a short 5 mile...

Thanks, guys for all the suggestions. I finally got the roll pin out after heating up the shaft and using some masonry drill bits. I had to go through 4 bits but along with the heat I was finally able to drill out approximately half then punch out the remaining roll pin. Can't believe how hard...

Would a carbide bit work in drilling a new hole?

I thought of that and may just have to bite the bullet and disconnect the assembly where I can really bang down on the pin.

I tried punching the pin out but it will not budge and I didn't want to bang on the shaft too hard for fear of damaging it.

I changed out the T-handle on my emergency brake shaft on my 65 A100. The new plastic T-handle also uses a rolling pin, however, I have not had success drilling out the old rolling pin. I even tried to drill a new hole through the emergency shaft and nothing seems to phase the steel shaft. I...

Thanks for the tip. I'll look into that tomorrow.

I did look into a replacement as you suggested, Barbee, but man are the little ones pricey. If you know where I can find one at a reasonable cost I'm all ears.

Thanks AJ. That's what I plan to do.

Thanks Bill.

Thanks guys! I have a 65 Dodge a100 pick up. Sorry I didn't mention that first. So, it sounds like my current starter, though listed for an automatic, would not be a problem using it on my three speed tranny?

Why does it matter if the starter is for a manual or automatic transmission? I have a 225 slant six and rebuilding the engine. I took out the old starter and found that it is for an automatic tranny and I have a three speed manual. I didn't have any issues with it before I removed it. Should I...

I want to replace the starter in my 225 slant six. The one I took out is for an automatic tranny and I have the three speed manual. I didn't know they make a starter for manual transmissions but mine did not have that type. Is it critcal that I buy one for a manual tranny or can I continue...

Thanks Chief. Is there a dodge listing where you got this info from?

Does anyone know the original engine color for a 1965 A 100 pickup? Mine looks to be dark green but I am not sure that was the original color of the engine. Anyone? I have the 225 slant six motor.

Just followed up on these leads but struck out. Dodge dealers only carry parts info dating back to 1984. Guess I'll have to improvise. Thanks again for your suggestions.

Thanks guys. I will follow up on these leads. Much appreciated.

Renewing the tyranny on my 65 A100 pickup but having trouble finding replacement bushings that are worn out on the shift linkage. Any leads on where I could go for this would be greatly appreciated. I have the 225 engine with column shift.

Hey Everyone I'm a new mopar owner having just purchased a 65 A100 dodge pickup. I plan to leave it with the patina look but renew the power train, suspension and brakes. I'm also finding out that parts for the A100 may be hard to come by so I'm hoping this forum will be a valuable source of...
