    Map Light Stays On

    Bess's ('66 Imp) map light won't shut off. Just finished up on some dash work( had to remove ash tray and radio to access climate control bulbs). Hoping I knocked something loose? Any thoughts?

    '66 Imperial Ammeter

    Happy 4th everyone, Amp meter is dead. I recently had to pull the instrument panel because the odometer broke and the clock wasn't working. Got it back, hooked it all up, applied power and poof, blew a fusible link and no start. Took a look at the backside of the fuse box, and sure enough...

    Pertronix Ignitor 2 on my '66 Imp

    Hello all, I recently purchased the Ignitor 2 for Bess (kit# 91381A). Now, according to the instructions, it is recommended - but not required - to remove the ballast resistor for this thing to work. I have checked on various forums and it appears folks have been doing it either way with...

    Bess ('66 Imp) Backfiring Through Carb

    Getting Bess ready for a road trip this week, and I was trying to smooth out this annoying little, tiny, almost stumble out of her idle. Doesn't affect drive-ability, just bugs the ever living you know what out of me. So, I broke out my timing light, my vacuum gauge, and my Sears Craftsman...

    RPMs and Vacuum

    Is it normal for an rpm meter to "hunt" a little bit, or are they generally rock steady? Same question for vacuum gauges. https://photos.app.goo.gl/X1NPxKDtheGBDfbu9

    Bess, my 1966 Imperial, Has Issues (but i still love her)...

    Hello everybody, Issue 1: Bess has developed an intake leak. Any tips on gasket choice/installation? Issue 2: She's going through condensers faster than I can get through a box of Ho-Ho's. Could this be a symptom or could I be looking at quality control issues?

    Bess's Brake lights and Turn Signals

    Bess has been on a tear lately, but I won't go into all that right now. Here's my latest "challenge ": Brake lights/turn signals work UNTIL I turn on the running lights/headlights. I did recently replace the headlight switch and connector due to China Syndrome. Any ideas? Bad ground?? OK, OK...

    Headlight switch going bad?

    There is a noticeable decrease in my idle when I pull out the headlight switch on my '66 Imp. Thoughts?

    'Ol Bess's Starter (I think)

    While driving my just acquired '66 Imp, I kept hearing a fan type sound I couldn't track down, but sounded like it was coming from under the driver's side dash. Well, this morning I decided to try and lock it down. When I turn the key to on, the noise starts up, and then continues once she...
