    Jacob’s ignition testing. Thanks to Newbomb Turk….

    I've had a few of those and liked how they ran. The last one I had I bought off of a guy that's on the /6 site and it ended up in my attic for a few years and when I went to try and use it, it was dead as a brick. It ended up in the trash. I've been kicking myself ever since I let the 2 that I...

    Advance springs

    I took a shot in the dark and struck out I bought some advance springs (weren't advertised as "Mopar" but for a much older Ford) but as long as the length is alright and the tension is what I want I don't care what brand they were originally "made for". I bought them specifically because the...

    Electronic ignition upgrade.

    And I get tired of people dissing 318s simply because they're 318s. You have a 37k mile 318? Where can I come over and pick it up? I've swapped more 360s out in favor of a 318 than the other way around...

    Seat belt buzzer and light won't go off

    That buzzer and the one for the keys left in are still some of the first things I yank and toss into the field as hard and far as I can throw them

    Advance springs

    A few years ago I bought some (aftermarket) "Mopar" advance springs from a guy who had a ton of them. I don't remember if it was from here or from the/6 site. I guess I should have gotten more sets. I have a couple of "1/2 sets" with the weaker spring left in the package, I only used the...

    Fusible link question ?may have to make a correction...

    I deleted the fusible links on my last rewire in favor of a fuse box full of maxifuses from a newer junkyard refugee and also added a 2nd redundant hot wire off of the alternator. I don't like the spade terminal connector at the end of the valve cover (85 d150) to carry all that current when the...

    Plug and play distributor

    Just trying to help you out..... I guess that either there is something wrong with the shaft or housing you now have that makes your old one unrepairable, or it's already not a stock unit that parts can be had for, or some people just like spending..... The older I get, the more crap that comes...

    Plug and play distributor

    Why not just replace the pickup coil in the existing distributor? And the advance can while you're at it? Would be cheaper and at least as good. I have accumulated enough new old aftermarket replacement ones for a song via eBay to last me a lifetime. 4 Phillips screws and both components are...

    Distributor ID question

    Huh one of the 2 hits I had via Google said that was the application but it had a gear on the bottom like a Chevy distributor would, the other one I saw there looked like a regular small block Mopar style. So I wondered if this might be some kind of adaptable universal thing except that it does...

    Distributor ID question

    Something I've had sitting here in the garage for a while, not sure what it fits. Was told Mopar SB. It has the screwdriver slot drive like a SBM distributor does. I looked up a couple online and saw a couple. Both had a gear on the end of the shaft, one of which was claimed to fit a 392 hemi...

    Parts list/diagram for Crackedback's alternator wire around harness

    I rewired my 85 d150 and in the process I went to the junkyard and looked at many of the remnants there, looking for an under hood fuse box. My original harness was a train wreck, with many blown fusible links. Also the big "hot" off the alternator changed colors and gauge size 3x and was just...

    gap for plugs - MSD box & dist.

    Years ago I was messing with Jacobs ignition systems. And along with the installation instructions they said to experiment with plug gaps. Open it 5-thou at a time til you felt performance fall off/ start to miss. Then go back to the last setting that didn't miss and that was your best setting.

    Starter question

    No, no shim on this type starter, if the bendix were to try to engage shimming would make the situation worse. I put the other one back in for now being it does still work when the "dead spot" doesn't end up in the wrong spot....

    Starter question

    Yes the starter motor does spin easily, as soon as I hit the key/ but the bendix doesn't kick in. I thought that I had said that already. I have tried (not on this one) the screwdriver trick to "hot wire" starters on other newer vehicles before as a test at work, and when I jump the big lugs...

    Starter question

    At this point I'm not out one red cent and they told me to keep it.... I think that clears me to try and flip it over and try again... They refunded me so essentially there's the "warranty" right there, right? They can't deny it because of "tampering" at this point...

    Starter question

    That's why ( and the fact that the small terminal is above the big lugs rather than below) I thought the solenoid might just be 180* out????

    Starter question

    This doesn't pertain to an LA or magnum or a /6. This is a newer truck/engine. 12 ram 1500 4.7 My original one is going out, I get that occasional "dead spot" when I hit the key that may happen twice today and then not act up for a week kind of thing. I bought a new reman from eBay...
