Problem solved :D found a rebuilt valve body on ebay with a shift kit and just swapped them out car shifts great again.

thanks I'll check around. doesn't look like it will be too hard to do but I might just take it into a trans shop to save myself the trans fluid mess.

Thanks Coronet that makes sense I checked the throttle lever out again last night and I can move it effortlessly in any position so something definetly broke inside. If the lever cam is busted do you know where I find a replacement? Thanks again.

Yea somethings broken for sure. I read another forum that there's a arm that's welded on the bottom of the shaft in the valve body that can break off. Found a couple of rebuilt valve bodies on ebay I'm going to check out.

I recenlty installed a Hurst shifter in my 72 Satellite a couple of weeks ago and I had to remove the throttle lever in order to change the shift select lever and thought that my kickdown was just out of adjustment. I remember when prying the lever off the shaft that the shaft moved up wtf? I'm...

Got it fixed I found 1 more bad connection from the steering wheel coupler connector. Also cleaned the bulkhead connector with a wire brush & contact cleaner and then packed all 3 connectors with lots of die-electric grease :icon_thumright: Electrical problems are gone :D

I know this is a old post but I went with the Hurst v-matic in my Satellite last week.

Thanks guys you were right bulkhead connector needed a good cleaning. Also I had a bad connector on the altenator gauge :) Going back out to blast some Van Halen :D

Got most things working again :) loose connections at bulkhead & at ammeter gauge. Now the only thing not working is ignition I can get it to crank over at the starter relay switch but won't start?

I feel your pain.. I just experienced the same problem after installing a new Pioneer stereo in my 72 Satellite today. I drove it around for about half the day blasting Van Halen and after I got home everything quit working :( I didn't realize this post was so old :( Hopefully you found the...

Thanks Wagun. I'll check out the starter relay I think your right I just really hope the fusible link isn't fried :( I hate dealing with anything electrical that was the main reason why I let a shop install the Pioneer. Installers didn't disconnect the battery and I already checked my battery...

Just finished the interior on my Satellite yesterday and to celebrate I got a new Pioneer stereo installed at a local stereo shop. A little later that day after I got home I noticed the stereo started to blink on & off and now nothing works :( No lights, ignition, nothing works now :( I checked...

69% for me :( I'm more of a late 60's & early 70's kinda guy though.

I got mine through Roseville Moparts. Best thing I ever did for my old Plymouth I can actually close my door with 1 finger now instead of using both hands.

Thats awesome I got the AMD hinges as well. I'm glad now I ended up buying both top & bottom hinges my door hasn't shut this good in years :) + only took a couple of hours . I didn't realize how bad my lower hinge was until I took it out it was not only missing the stopper & spring but was also...
