If I am not supposed to, I have been doing it wrong for all these years without having problems. I might have been doing it wrong. I know that you not supposed use solid copper wire for automotive because it doesn't have the flex capabilities.

Aluminum wire has its place in our daily lives but definitely not in automotive applications. Personally I like commercial grade multi-strand electrical wire like they use in conduit because the insulation is much better than what I can buy at the auto parts stores. If you know any...

All these ideas are great. I am generally a purist but it would be nice to do away with all the other components and be able to use a gm alternator.

That doesn't sound good. Hopefully it is a simple fix.

Horrid Freight has already had to recall their junk fuses.

As usual 67Dart273/Del is on the right track when giving accurate methods of locating the problem in the electrical area of a vehicle.

It is an eBay picture Steve.

Yes Steve, you are missing the bulb and I think that is all.

What a mess and a fire waiting to happen. Get the factory manual that is specific for the year of your car because it will have the wiring diagrams for both the /6 as well as the V8. Personally I would probably end up buying complete under hood wiring harnesses before it was over. Here are two...

Mashing the button with the headlight switch off and then pulling it has worked best for me.

Did you ask him what the difference is in the two different Mopar small block distributors that he has listed is? The pictures show them and they look identical from the outside. Is one better than the other? Need different accessories to work correctly? If they are the same why would there be...

Here is another Mopar small block distributor he has listed. Mopar Dodge Chrysler 318 340 360 Hei Distributor PE 340 R | eBay It would be nice if Skip would sell one with a correct looking cap. The GM style contacts don't do it for me. This seller has a cap that looks more like a Mopar...

He has more than one part number listed for Mopar small blocks so you should send him a message and ask him directly.

Maybe this thread will also help. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=269711

Seat belt interlock/relay??

That is the same type of connector that electric forklifts use. One of my tow trucks use them to connect jumper cables up when jumping another vehicle. It is sweet since you don't even have to raise the hood on my wrecker...

Example...

The knob isn't supposed to come off the shaft. The shaft and knob is an assembly that is removed by pushing the button shown in the picture below.

My early to mid 2000s model Fords are still using ground straps. Personally I have only seen cables on imports but I don't work on that many newer cars either. I am talking about the ground strap between the engine and body.

This is true. I have found several ground wires on later model imports badly frayed or broken where they were attached on the firewall which was messing with the computer.

The inner red lens is not painted. The color does go through them and through the white. It may be your camera or the quality of the reproduction lenses that makes things look funny.

Unless you have a car that you are going for 100 point restoration you should be able to get battery cables at any parts store.

Maybe your friend could help you set it up too? That way you will know how it is done for the next time.

Trying to hep someone with no information is impossible but in this case burdar was just another commenter trying to figure out what is going on here. doogievlg is the op.

Man I wish the information was clear. Even my crystal ball isn't able to pick it up.

Lol, I grew up when you bought a spool of plug wire or plug wire by the foot, boots and connectors so this is pretty old school for us poor boys. Them ready made wires were for the rich people.

I always put my boots on the wire before the end is installed.
