    Heat Riser Removal

    I respectfully suggest that Chrysler would not have installed it unless there was a need. There was. I detailed the issue I had as a result of a disabled heat riser. If you do many short trips, you can expect the same. The issue has to do with heating the choke coil, and getting the choke (and...

    Heat Riser Removal

    You really want to have it in good operating order. It is used to heat the choke. When the exhaust crossover stops, you will get an accumulation of crud, first in the heads, and then up into the manifold. Mine was rattling, so I just wired it open to stop the noise. Mine was a 71 Cuda 340 with...

    Which oil filter for a 340?

    For the most part, I agree. There are a lot of Cummins engine owners out there who would never think about using Fram after what they did with their full flow filters. It's amazing that they survived that stain on their reputation. Wix was recently acquired by Mann & Hummel, a well regarded...

    Thermoquad Rebuild Kit

    You could walk into any NAPA store in the country and get one in a day or two. Their P/N is 2-1694. I sold their Echlin kits for years; never had issues.

    Alternator overcharging

    Odd....I had a 71 Cuda, and a 70 Dart. Both had the single field alternator, along with the electronic voltage regulator.

    Alternator overcharging

    Just a thought....if memory serves correctly, a 70 model would be using the single field alternator. My 71 had the single type. When the dual field type came along later, it could be used on the older models, but one of the field connectors was either grounded, or not connected at all; I don't...

    No start on 74 Challenger

    Check where the ignition switch connector mates to the harness on the column. I once had a wire burn at the connector, leaving me with that exact situation. It was very apparent once I got up under the column. It was the heaviest wire. A quick wire repair, and things were back to normal.

    Help on transmission decode. One mystery leads to another.

    Is this BS23H1B290262? If so, the radio is incorrect. It originally had the AM/FM multiplex radio with the 4 thumbwheels.

    Help on transmission decode. One mystery leads to another.

    Original door was smashed by someone who didn't know how to drive (hit and run). This occurred in the late 70s, when it was just an 8 year old Plymouth. Back then, originality was not a thing. I just bought one from a junk yard. It couldn't have been saved anyway..

    I owned that car until the early 90s...The trans was original when I sold it.

    Do you have this car? I owned it for 15+ years. I can clear up the door VIN issue for you. Where is it now? I have the original Thermoquad and the original dual point distributor...I hated that thing! Would love to hear about it.
