This park device was only used for the three years, as far as I can determine. It has a rotating clutch that allows more movement in reverse. The service manual shows several designs, and this horrible thing was used when the motor goes into reverse to add lever length. The thing I have...

For only a couple years, mother mopar used this park device, at least I think this is it, from service manual. Mine is MIA. IF correct, they are expensive and my motor fries the fuses, so has issues and will need rebuild. My question is this. Has anyone tried to replace this 66-68 system...

It would appear you are correct. I have tried to solder the larger terminals, but not the small ones....and I cant help but wonder how many more will bite me.

I had to install a new wire harness in my RoadKill, as there were a couple large remnants of fire with the copper strands black and open, and many examples of use of home wire nutz, and a lot more. Some of this I blame on the old mopar plastic firewall connector that was bypassed. But, in my...

I was checking mine at the sensor wire, as I was rewiring my car. And, was getting resistance in the right range from the sender, but a bit flakey. So finally put on new gauge and it was reading but flakey. So pulled the tank and replaced the sender....all good now, or gooderer as I say...

I H8 to say it but I think.........I have an answer. Hooked up the new coil with the low resistance up to a distributor and battery. Yes, 12V as in starting. And, tried to use a drill but the shaft too large....so spun the distributor by hand, leftwise. And, the spark jumped from the center...

I hesitate to mention.....mama said if you dont have something nice to say, dont say anything. I agree with your points.

Primary is in spec at about 1.5 ohms. I complained to source, and they say they work fine. Well.....maybe. My old coil that I put back on, is in the 11k range. Just looking for other inputs. I am thinking that the relation between windings is similar to the resistance, and that if the...

Would like to know what you think on coil resistance. Specs like to say about 11K resistance on secondary side. Just bought a new one from an ebay source....no idea where made, but only has about 8K resistance. Have not tried to hook up and look at spark....may have to. But, just thought...

Yah...at the moment I am trying the old style....electronic seems best. But, if only for interference and not to act as the one in the distro does, to prevent arching and sparking, and level things out.....I will not worry. Thanks guys for help.

Finally have come up with some videos on the subject that really help, esp on the operation of the gauges with the limiter. And, finally figured out how to tell which is in and out on these things thanks to previous smart guys. I have not found what folks think about the use of the...

I agree 100% and often have pulled off the nylon and used a bare connector on this job. I had found, years ago, napa solder or crimps with shrink that I did like.....but have been harder to find. I wish I had put more solder on my terminals here. I did solder the larger wire terminals....esp...

So, who would think that the design and mfr of wire terminals would be difficult. And, have tried to get some from Amer Auto Wire, but got a bunch from amazon from our competitors. So, they look good, have a nice shrink tube on board, so used some for my new harness work. So the other day, I...

After trying two or three pairs of the very basic crimpers w/o interchange, I realized, and found here, that I needed the better replaceable heads that have the double crimp steps for both sides of the open terminal....wire and insulation. I got the WireFy that I am pretty happy with...

I worked for the navy building ships....and even though I started young with my 53 plymouth, I could not afford to have graveyard do a car for me.....although it would be great. So, I need to work on the wiring, the carb, the leaky trans and the bad steering, and maybe one day, this thing will...

The heck with the strippers, I like the pic of the dog.

Getting close to end of my wiring comments. Today I installed my new harness for the panel lights across the dash....did suggest to painless that they offer one....most dashes are similar in respect to the fact that the panel light power spreads from gauges, to speedo, to heat, clock, radio...

I have been on my back under a lot of dashes for this kind of work. Not fun. This time, I have removed everything, that now has big open gaps that make it easier. The amazing thing is that in this large car, there was no room to attach the new fuse panel.....there is a large bracket next to...

Couple quick updates on harness install. I am really liking the painless wire loom. Not easy to wrap over existing wire, so I try to feed wires thru when I can, but is much better than the cheap fabric weave stuff, and I have never liked the plastic loom material....functional maybe. But...

More days of testing, and I want to note that the comment above by 317 is not far off, regarding the OEM harness. I have found that the headlight and tail light harness portions are fine.....those not screwed with by shop monkeys. Also, just went thru the small harness in my console with three...
