Hi guys,... have some questions for the Edelbrock guru's. I've google searched these questions but not really found the answers so thought i'd come here and start some dialogue.
So here's my story - (car in signature) Running Edelbrock 1406
A couple weeks ago the car started running like...
Little update on this..... the seller shipped me out the +/- ones at no charge. (didn't even ask him to do that) Anyway, installed and all is well. Light is nice and even.
OH WTF ! :mad: Well, that is weird isn't it. I've never seen a bulb like that. Thank you for noticing.. I just figured the issue was on my end. I'll order up some different ones..
:thankyou:
Thanks 72, Looks like we bought the same bulb. I bought these which are from the same seller. https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-X-Warm-White-BA15D-5050-13-SMD-RV-Camper-Trailer-LED-Light-Bulbs-1154-1142-12V/352027880706?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
I chose those because...
I have a NEW IN BOX Mancini Racing fan shroud for 22" radiator. Part number HF328
Fits: 1970-73 B- & E-Body 22" V-8
Original part number 2998 328. Correct for all V-8 cars using a fan shroud with 22" radiator including 318, 340, 383, and 440 powered Challengers, Barracudas, Chargers, Road...
Now that my dome light works with the door, and seeing how the heat (and 47 years) has yellowed and warped my dome lens, it thought i'd treat the ole girl to an LED bulb.
Stock dual contact, single filament bulb is a 1004. Bought the LED equivalent,... and as soon as i put the bulb in the...
Looking up the bulbs online for your car shows a 194. If it's the push/twist, shop for a 53 That will get you to the size that would fit that socket.
Remember, that release on the speedo cable is a squeeze type. I just broke mine thinking i had to lift it.
Can't tell you what they are on a /70, but they are 194's on my '71.
Do yourself and the car a favor and buy RED LED versions. Draws less amperage so it's easier on the poor old wiring, and they produce WAAAAY less heat which is mo-betta for the plastic lens.
Welp, we can bring this one to a close. All back together and ZERO draw (with clock disconnected) and 13mAH draw with it back in the loop.
Plus I now have a working key buzzer and dome light. That had been on my to-do list and ended up being a byproduct of this repair. While I was at it, I...
Just an update on my radio,.... I ran a fair amount of LectroMotive cleaner thru and all around the radio, seems to have helped my tune issue, (at least on the quick test drive) had no effect on the volume control however. We’ll see how it behaves over the next couple weeks. Thanks for the...
Thanks. I’ll give the tune-up in a can a try. If it just worked even a little bit better I’d be happy. I don’t use it much, but like for all the Stuff in my cars to function. Most the time I’m just listening to the bumpity bumpity bump.
I do radio conversations for the Nash Metropolitan...
My radio works, but not well. Won’t hold a station, and sometimes the volume control doesn’t change the volume much. As in some times you can’t turn the sound down.
Is there anything to clean? Or do to cure either of these symptoms? I want to keep the original radio and may try to gut it...
HA! 'splains why everytime the dang thing touches the back of the fuse block the horn goes 'meep-meep' ;)
So i've got a female spade on that wire and not sure where it came from.
You d'man ! Thank you sir. I clearly don't have a schematic for this car, and i don't think even if i did i could find a damn thing. Been trying to read the ones i have all week and getting nowhere.
I didn't have switched power to the yellow connector, but after investigating and simply...
and so the plot thickens.... I didn't want to just hack into a wire somewhere and run around the real issue, so i traced that black wire that supposed to feed my VR, and traced it to this yellow, 3 female connector. (there are only 2 wires going to it, tan and my black) What is this...
