    1 brake light out....turn signal switch?

    Hey all, 69 Dart. Noticed got one brake light out. Swapped sides and the bulb is good. Taillights and turn signals work (hazards dont). But the signals are getting a little twitchy sometimes. Going fast or intermittent. Its been awhile, but I thought I remembered that the brake signal...

    How often do you guys start your car over winter storage?

    Specifically those of you in the sub freezing zones. Im in midwest, IL/WI border, so you know it gets pretty cold here. Im really not concerned with batteries, as I put the car and bike on trickle chargers. More curious about getting some fuel going thru the carb. If I wait 2 weeks, its a...

    Welding CO/Argon tank question

    Off topic question for you professional (or hobby) welders. I have just a little experience Mig welding. Have borrowed from various friends when needed and always done fluxcore (I think thats what its called). So never used gas. The projects didnt call for "roll of dimes" look, so it was good...

    Six pack secondary paper clip test?

    I just got the car back on the road after a long overdue suspension rebuild. After doing some carb tuning, I had a suspicion that the outboards werent opening. Honestly, I never knew if they were in the last couple years cuz I didnt do this test. I read to get it up to about 2500 rpm in...

    throwout bearing to fingers gap?

    Adjusting fork rod due to pedal not returning all the way up. Thought it might be somewhere in the linkage, but I disconnected and checked everything with no binding. Started adjusting the rod to put bearing closer to fingers and that seems to be what was causing it. Huge difference. So how...

    Internal VR?

    I was doing some wire rerouting and I noticed after a long search that I dont have a voltage regulator. Im not sure if you can tell by the pic, but do I have a "powermaster" style alternator with an internal regulator. Sorry for my ignorance, Im an electrical/ignition novice.

    Hey guys, Just finished up my front end rebuild. Time to move to the back and replace the leafs and shocks. I thought this was gonna be the easy part... After monkeying around trying to get these Bilsteins in the upper stud with lube and a 3 lb sledge, I gave up and just pulled the studs ftom...

    Torsion bar install "offline"

    I finally was able to get all my parts for the front end rebuild. So I got the Qa1 LCAs and adjustable struts in, but when I try to install the 1.03 bars, they are on a slightly different angle than the socket of the LCA making them impossible to slide in. Ive got the hexes lined up though so...

    Torsion bar install question

    When installing the torsion bars, I know they are side specific (R and L), but does it matter for indexing which way they go in? Numbers in front or rear? These are the PST 1.03 bars and they are going into QA1 tubular lowers if that matters. Also, I believe these bars are offset and it...

    Pcv inside Breather?

    Im having a ***** of a time finding the proper sized grommet for the oil fill holes on the MP black wrinkle VCs. Im getting tired of it leaking. I figured Id just get the twist on breather, drill out the top and put the grommet and Pcv in it. Anyone see an issue doing this? I cant think of...

    Pre bent line or do it myself?

    Replacing front brakes, rotors, caliper, etc. Noticed that previous owner did a number on the drivers side brake line bolt. Its basically stripped already, no point in trying to save it. All the other lines are in good shape. Was wondering if you guys know if somewhere just sells the lines...

    CO from running Dart in garage with door open

    Hey guys, I admit that Im one of those guys who never think about CO gases. I do have a detector in my house by the bedrooms, but other than that, never think about it. I had a couple power outages this year and was considering getting my first portable generator. Mostly just for sump pump and...

    Leaf recommendations?

    Finally able to buy my replacement parts for suspension rebuild. Obviously its been a crazy year and money is tight. Among other parts, Im upgrading to 1.03 bars. Im wondering if its a good idea to go ahead and do the leafs now too. It might price me out of my budget, but that what credit...

    Pipe dope or Teflon tape on fuel fittings?

    Guys, I didnt know if this very basic question should go here or the fuel delivery section. I figured this is more a general question, so here would be okay. Im installing a new regulator and was wondering if teflon tape or rectorseal is a correct sealant choice. I have the "Earls" blue 3/8...

    which direction to take?

    Hey Guys, I guess this could be LCA bushings shot part 2. So I took my car to the local Mopar shop. I didnt want to but I thought a pros opinion couldnt hurt. Basically what I thought, bushings shot. Upper and lower. Sway bar, strut, basically all. Also, LBJs not bad, but wrong for the...

    LCA bushings shot

    Hey guys, My steering is everywhere when I hit a bump or a curve in the road. Noticed the LCA bushing on pass side is shot. The torsion bar is sitting on the bottom of the opening. The drivers side not as bad but its going too. Would that be enough to throw the alignment completely off and...

    69 Dart hidden VIN locations

    Hey guys, I tried searching for this and all Im finding is for 68 which Ive heard are SO numbers. The VIN on dash and title match radiator support. Ive heard that there is another in the trunk somewhere? Btw, my car is not numbers matching, this is just out of curiousity really.

    Rpms rapidly increase at startup

    6 bbl holley. Startup immediately at 1500 rpms then keeps climbing quickly. Finally cut it at 4k. Tried to WOT to reset fast cam lever...nothing. Kept increasing. Something binding? All I did beforehand was remove/reinstall secondary springs to see which ones they were and manually forced...

    Can you tell which secondary springs these are?

    Not sure if I should post this here or in Fuel/Air. This question is for the six pack guys that have a good eye for the secondary springs. I just started refamiliarizing myself with the 6 packs carbs and am starting to get them dialed in. I had a slight bog when Id get on it, not too bad...
