The other day I was getting rid of some unused wires from previous projects in my engine bay. In the process, I had to unravel a lot of electric tape and i noticed that in one of the (original looking looms) was a wire that was just open ended. I didnt think much kf it because the wiring was a...

I have just installed my custom gauges and I have an issue with my Hazards. Its all wired pretty simply, all gauges and gauge lights share the same ground and power. Then I have a led for brights (which works just fine). And an LED for the parking brake. This one is seperate power and ground...

I have recently upgraded my headlights from sealed beam to halogen with LEDs. I have one of those oldschool bubblelevel adjuster and I think I got them pretty close. According to the pics, would you say I need to move the passanger beam over to the right a little? Also, unsure about the...

So I have this thing happening that when I turn my blower motor on high, my charging voltage drops dramatically. I'm wondering if it is easy to rebuild the motor and if there are parts available. Its not that big of a deal normally but now with my electric fan and AC it is very noticeable. I...

I am having a hard time wiring my headlights. I have 4 conversion headlights that take the 9007 bulb and they come with an adapter wire. I have looked at schematics and moved the wires in accordance what I found online. The problem I am having now is... When I turn on the headlights only with...

Hey, Both of my sidemarkers in the fenders are dead on my 68 Fury, I'm wondering if its a ground problem or if both bulbs are out. My turn signals are also pretty fast because of this and this is the only thing i see wrong at the moment. What kind of bulbs do they take, I can't seem to find...

Hey. I have to rewire some of my EFI stuff... I've been chasing this issue for quite a while. Little story upfront, my EFI requires a switched 12v source that stays active during crank and run. I deleted the ballast, combined the wires and am triggering a relay that gives power to said switched...

I am not sure how to properly ask this but can someone explain to me, lets say I have a mechanical timing curve that is only rpm dependant, how do i know how many degrees the vacuum adance should add and when? In Theory: If i break this down, a regular distributor has so to speak different...

Hi there, looking for some input on how to set timing on my 360. I have a fuel injection that now also controls timing. I have played with my idle timing to get a "best" vacuum and its best at 18° initial. I can now set: WOT 1100 rpm 95kpa (???) WOT 3000 rpm 95kpa (34°?) WOT 6000 rpm 95kpa...

Hi all, I know that some people are using a Fuel injection system here. I need some help figuring out something, I just installed a 2wire distributor, locked it out, put it in at 10° BTDC and lined up the magnetic pickup. Then Phased the rotor 15°. After some fiddling, I can finally start the...

Hey, I would like to find out how the 70s and up charging system works. mainly, does the Voltage regulator turn off the charging if it thinks the battery is charged or should I always see 13.8 to 14.7Volts? I dont wanna chase my tail here thats why I am asking. I am starting the car, see the...

Hello all, I am in the process of updating my battery terminals and big wires. I just put in a 1/0 ground wire to the engine and probably will do the same size wire to the starter. I have a later model mopar mini starter, anyone know how long the wire to the starter normally is and what size...

I just found out that on "older units", the one with one 6-pin connector, the connection can melt and leave you stranded. FiTech has not put out a recall but you can send in you unit and they fix it. The update is to put the fuelpump and main powerwire through a 2 pin connector and the smaller...

So my interstate group 24 just got me stranded again and I will be needing a battery. I am looking at the x2power line from batteries plus which are rebranded northstar i found out. I am looking at a group 27 deep cycle with 90Ah. Does anyone have expierience with those? I have an alarm system...

I'm having a little bit of an "issue" with my car alarm. It is an Avital 3300l 2 way alarm. Has a double shock sensor on board and I have an additional hoodpin and glass break sensor installed (the one with a microphone). It's a DEI product. My issue is, I seem to get an awful lot of false...

I am going to attempt on the ammeter bypass soon, I have read the mad electric article about it where it says to connect the wires behind the dash and put both ends on the starter relay (to describe that simple). I just have too much voltage loss when turning on the ignition to reliable feed...

I have a set of power door locks I want to put into my 68 Fury III 2 Door. They simply add to my security system and I have the wiring all sorted out and made a nice harness which just plugs into the security brain. I have 3/8" grommets I would like to use to get the wires out of the interior...

it happened to me twice now, that withing of 2 weeks, I wanted to start the fury and it would be completely dead. I dont drive it much at the moment (maybe once or twice in 2 weeks).... so I just recharged the battery and measured some parasitic draw. I have installed: Fitech EFI, Radio, Avital...

I apologize for opening a new topic about this, but there is still some weird stuff happening with my charging system. I just cant figure this out. Brand new 90amp alternator Electronic voltage regulator Direct 8ga with 100amp circuit breaker to battery from charging stud Ammeter NOT bypassed...

i have acuired the limiter plate and springs from 4secondsflat for the distributer and will be doing some curve tuning soon. Im curious (since this is all wonky in my dizzy), at what travel in the slots should the weights be caught by the heavy spring (or the loop) to slow down the curve...
