    73 barracuda tries to run only in the start position.

    If you are able to jump a wire from the red wire at the plug to the brown wire when cranking. If it fires right up that's your problem. Ign sw. Note the brow wire feeds full 12v to the coil for starting only. I think you understand that. remove as it starts. a extra second or two wont hurt. Turn...

    Just to bring it back to the original question. What carb will fit. I'm not that versed in the matter, I can guess. Would like to see a list and there + or - of each if notable.

    Carb recommendations / fit

    Thanks for you response. I can read into it. There's a lot of experience that passed through your hands and a few others here. If you stay in a comfort zone you never learn nothing. I still learn here. If you know your limits that's an other thing. To me that's how I see it. Ask questions...

    Next if you have good voltage at the red wire. Unplug the yellow wire in the starter relay. Turn key to start and check both sides of the brown wire. The brown wire from the plug, feeds slot 22 the brown wire from the firewall to the ballast. Here again. If there is not the correct voltage on...

    73 barracuda tries to run only in the start position.

    There could be a 1 volt loss. That better than 6.5v coming from slot 22 the brn wire. Check the red wire at the plug under the steering column. Keep it plugged in. use a Paper clip if need be. And check both sides of the plug. If there is not the correct voltage on both sides. Unplug and...

    In short. 1:RED wire 16 Battery power yellow dot to splice one feeds fuse block. Check the battery terminal at the fuse bottom of the fuse block for voltage. If it's not same there as the battery, there's a bad connection at 16. Don't forget to check the motor and chassis ground by the...

    73 barracuda tries to run only in the start position.

    Follow the dots. Understand how it's wired first. Blue charge circuit, yellow battery supply, red ACC circuit. Headlight sw is feed from splice one under dash. One word explains the wiring and connections. Inadequate! Read Description and follow the dots. The wiring is not heavy enough and the...

    Lower valance trim and lower grill section, was it an option on 72-74 Challenger?

    I could be dead wrong on this. Someone was telling me. Sometime ago I came across that. It seem to me it was more so if it was a coupe, hardtop or part of a package. Some packages were only available with a certain model. Did the Deputy get it? I think for 71 it was A46 69-71 Molding Package...

    Engine idle not working

    Is there an electric choke on that? The factory manual would show how to trouble shoot it. Not sure how to do that. I would have to check. Other than in a x period of time it should open.
