    How do I locate a leak?

    We've had 2 weeks of daily rain, pouring at least once a day. Today was the first nice day we've had. I wanted to start on the brakes today. So I climb into the car where all my books and parts are stored and into a moldy, musty smell that wasn't there before. It's gross. I discover my owners...

    Backspace and Offset for 13 to 14 inch Switch

    I've decided to change out my rims from 13" to 14" because I don't want to spend $175 or more just for a tire or risk buying old, expired stock from questionable online resellers. I can find rims and tires together for less than $120 per wheel. I've got the economy 68 Plymouth Valiant 100...

    Undercarriage Question

    It's been years since I've worked on a car of any make/model and most of my knowledge comes from reading the Hayes/Chilton/Service manuals. My Dad was a bit sexist when it came to car repair instructions. I've got all 3 books for my 68 Valiant and can't find the answers. There's repair...

    Windshield Wiper Linkage Access

I've got the service manual, a Hayes, and a Chilton book but all 3 say to go up under the dash but do not tell me what I need to remove to get it out. I know there are hoses blocking my way. I can just reach the passenger side...

    Tire & Wheel Question 68 Valiant

    My owners manual states I should have 6.50 - 13 tires and 5x100 rims my car for its engine & body combo. I don't know what rims I have, the tires on it are 185/80R13 and conversion tools online say I should have 175/80R13 but when I look up replacements for those 2 sizes they say "For Trailer...

    Hello! First time Mopar owner, in Ohio

    I just got my first Mopar. It's a 1968 Plymouth Valiant 100, slant 6, 115hp, automatic transmission. Technically my husband has owned 3 Dodge vehicles, but this one is all mine. I can look under the hood of the Valiant and I know what I'm looking at! I understand how it works and I can...

    1968 Plymouth Valiant 100

    I'm finally in possession of a vehicle older than me. I'm new to restoring cars, but not new to general maintenance. It's a pretty basic car, no power assist on anything. It's got the 115hp slant 6 engine with 60k miles. I'm kind of lucky (maybe) that it has an automatic transmission. It runs...
