    Starting circuit challenge - intermittent fault SOLVED

    How are your ambient temperatures right now - or at least when trying to start the car? Also check the age of your battery - I have a Falcon XR6 which did the same thing. Turned out to be a bad starter motor - full of carbon brush dust - drawing current even when the car was locked up and...

    Starter drain the battery dead???

    Yes it is a thing. Two years ago I had trouble with another car - Ford Falcon - 6-cyl car. If not used for a week, the battery would die off to the point where starting was nearly impossible. Of course, I blamed the battery, and after spending another $200 local money....I was proven wrong...

    Question about a old mad bypass repair

    40 Amps is enough in the sense that your car hasn't burnt to the ground. :lol: I suspect it should be more like 60 Amps, but that depends upon your wiring condition and of course your alternator output, and the loading you place upon it. A few variables to weigh up .......and it's difficult...

    ELECTRICAL QUESTION

    Without the ability to see a circuit diagram, I suggest that the lamp comes on when the door opens....therefore, this lamp operates the same as the ceiling light. The orange goes to other lamps, and eventually the switch is the ground point.

    run-on with MSD 6AL

    Like a Ford I wired a few years ago, you may have to connect a diode inline with the ignition circuit. Worked on a Ford, so it may be the same for your One-wire Mopar issue. The installation of the diode is clearly shown in the MSD wiring diagrams. :)

    Rev-N-Nator vs. FBO HRR688 ignitions

    Previously had a MoPar Orange box ECU. I had also tried out using an MSD 6AL....but I didn't like the unit, and it didn't fit with my restoration, so I got rid of it.

    Rev-N-Nator vs. FBO HRR688 ignitions

    They say that the electronic wizardry inside the Rev-N-Nator box compensates for the lack of a vacuum advance, and that the vacuum advance was hindering a faster power curve. I followed the instructions, plugged my vacuum advance, and noticed a power increase. In the case of my '70 GTX, the...

    Rev-N-Nator vs. FBO HRR688 ignitions

    I have run the Rev-N-Nator box in both my vehicles, and have sold a few out here in NZ to friends. Everybody is happy with the results, and in my cases, the apparent power increase was enough to produce a smile. My buddy has a 318 powered Dodge Ram, and the power increase was almost...
