    map light

    If I'm reading this correctly you are having trouble with your dome light and are thinking it has something to do with the map light?? I think I had the opposite problem as you, I thought my map light wasn't working and found out differently. I was working on the map light with the door open...

    I hate to ask but

    I have had pretty good luck on YouTube getting instructions or repair videos for the newer cars that I don't know much about. Did you try that? Good Luck!!

    Light Switch

    You guys were right on the money with how to get the switch out, worked like a charm. I got some bigger problems now though. Interesting thing to me is that I've owned the car for over 25 years and never knew about any of these terrifying looking problems my car has. It looks like I'm very...

    Light Switch

    I'm having trouble getting my light switch out of my 69 Dart. Is there a trick on getting the plunger out of the switch so you can drop it into the dash and get it out that way? Or what am I over looking here. It would help a little bit if I was a contortionist and my arms and hands were...

    Bad alternator?

    Another way to check your alternator, is start the car and pull the positive cable off the battery. If the car dies this is a sign of a bad alternator or a bad voltage regulator. I just had this happen to my Dart a few weeks ago. How does your car run when the lights and all extra...

    tiny spark???

    Got the car running last weekend. Started with the ballast resister $4.00, then the cap $9.00 and rotor $5.00, coil $22.00, skipped the plug wires, then the ignition box $24.00, it was the ignition box. I now have spares of all my electrical stuff except the box that was bad.

    tiny spark???

    After my club's car show a few weeks ago when I was putting my car in the garage I noticed that it really started to bog down. I didn't really think much about it because I was going up a slight hill in reverse and keeping my speed down (4 speed car) I thought that it was just a little loaded...

    8.5mm Sparkplug Wires

    While cleaning a shelf in the garage I found a set of 8.5mm spark plug wires that were for a Ford Bronco that I used to own. I needed only the coil wire for a fix on the Bronco so I was wondering if I could use the 8.5mm wires on my Dart. The Dart is a 340 with electronic ignition, and...

    short

    I'm thinking I have a short some where in system or maybe a bad alternator, but I'm not sure. My car is in the process of getting a new paint job and cleaned up to be street respectable. I've been trying to start the car at least one or twice a week to keep the battery charged, and it just...

    spark plugs for 318

    I have a 340 in my Dart and I just got a set of Champions from Advantage Auto, they are RN12YC, did I get the wrong plugs? I gapped them but haven't put them in yet so it might not be too late to return them if they are wrong. Let me know. Thanks I almost forgot they are...
