    Am I crazy? I like rebuilding carbs

    I don't mind it either, back in the day at the Dodge dealerships we used to get paid by warranty to rebuild them. Lol. We also had some killer carb cleaner.

    Rear window louvers dealer installed?

    I worked at Dodge dealerships from 83 to 2007, back in the early days we installed lovers, rear defrosters , A/C systems etc. After we installed them the paperwork would be updated so the factory would cover the installations under warranty, later years we would go online and update the options...

    Erratic speedometer

    Back in the day, maybe late eighties, we had a problem with bouncy Speedo,s we used to pull the inner cable out, clean and lubed but one thing we had to do is trim the end of the cable where it went into the Speedo about a sixteenth of an inch, cut the point off if it has one. Good luck

    I agree with Moparleo, there is a few different things that need to be checked, make sure all the front end parts are good, tire pressure all even and are not cheap off brand tires, make sure your shocks are good and the alignment controls how the vehicle drives, if the toe is not set correctly...

    battery drain

    Let me ask, how long does it take to drain your battery down to the point that it won't start. If you let the car sit for weeks at a time then a small draw is going to kill the battery sooner or later, if it dies in a couple of days after being fully charged then you have a problem. You can...

    Advice on AC

    Hi, so my thought would be to keep it original, I was a Mopar tech since the early 80,s 25 plus years, r12 is more efficient the r134 and they blew really cold, you can rebuild the compressor instead of buying a new one that's up to you, I used to convert the r12,s to r 134,s and never had any...
