    Welcome to the site. This is the best forum for hanging out with Mopar folks. Let's see some pics!

    What did you do to your Mopar today?

    First I tried a one quart milk jug but it was too small. This is a one gallon white vinegar jug. The bottom of the jug snaps up behind the oil pump, holding it in place.

    What did you do to your Mopar today?

    Changed the oil and filter on the Coronet. Pretty routine, but this time I used a homemade funnel for the oil filter, the idea was pilfered from a @dadsbee thread. Cut a plastic jug in half and placed it under the filter. The hollow handle makes a perfect spout. No more oil spilled on the...

    Installing Classic Auto Air in a '70 Charger

    Use insulated handle needle-nose pliers. And don't be standing in a puddle of water wearing steel-toed boots.

    And the coil wire is further upstream. If the coil wire sparks, then its reasonable to assume that the coil and the cap & rotor are good.

    Installing Classic Auto Air in a '70 Charger

    I agree. I don't use the CA panel much and have to recalibrate myself when I do use it. I have use the fan slider to calibrate the temp slider. The silkscreened white blocks on the fan slider get bigger and fatter on top, and when the slider is pushed towards the windshield the fan speed...

    Installing Classic Auto Air in a '70 Charger

    I have the CA in the Coronet, although I haven't hooked up the a/c yet. Maybe after I retire... The instructions are vague and I interpreted 'full forward' as sliding the lever towards me. When you said 'toward the front', do you mean towards the windshield?

    Tremec 5 speed conversion in a 1970 Charger

    Greg did his TKO swap a couple of years ago. I converted to the TKX late last year, and the prices went up, and the kit didn't include the driveshaft, which the earlier kits did. That's an additional $300. The tunnel will require a doghouse to cover the shifter mechanism, so you either have to...
