I faced a similar situation where the original was falling apart on my 66 Charger. Bought the correct replacement and did not want to mess with disassembling anything. I considered a few options and decided to cut a narrow, hacksaw blade width, slit thru the one side to allow it to be flexed...

Are you indeed getting fuel flow into the carb bowls ? If a mechanical fuel pump, could be a worn fuel pump push rod.. Have you tried pouring a very small splash of gas directly into into the primary of the carb ? If you do that, should start or at least make an attempt to start with that...

The one side with fast action sound looks normal on the gauge however, the side that deflects the amp gauge ( alt gauge ) to almost maximum discharge current draw is indicating a huge not normal current draw. But you know that... You could have one of a single or multiple issues... could be a...

Many years ago, got very lucky and found a set of NOS taillight lenses w/gaskets in original packing on E bay for a ridiculously low price.. Bought them, installed them on my 66 Charger. Sold my old lenses which were in reasonable shape but slightly fogged for twice what I paid for the nos...

When I first got my 66 Charger previous owner had installed air shocks. I quickly replaced them with conventional OEM type shocks and discovered what that the car really need new rear leaf springs. Got the springs from Eaton Detroit. While I was doing all that work decided to install Monroe...

I have had one "orange box" failure since I converted from points ignition in 2011. That orange box that failed was part of the original Mopar Performance conversion kit. Worked fine for about two years and one day, went to start and nothing. Luckily, car was in my garage so no big deal and...

Beautiful Charger !!

A 323 model AM radio like I had in my 66 Charger had a 3 watt output. Not sure, but think the original dash speakers in these era cars had a 8 ohm rating. Many years ago, I found a very good condition used correct AM-FM model radio I installed in my Charger. For what you are stating what you...

The fuel, temp and oil pressure basically all work in a similar manner. Like the mechanical voltage regulator previously described, a small coil of a special resistance wire is wrapped around a flat bi-metal strip. That coil is connected to the rear, screw terminals of the gauge. The 5 volts...

For what you describe on the needle problem, that may or may not solve your problem. You may want to check out,, Todd's Restorations – 66-67 Charger restoration He does gauge repair and restoration for our 66-67 Charger gauges as well as other models.

In the 66-67 Charger gauge cluster, the temperature, oil pressure and fuel gauge uses the 5 volts provided by the mechanical type regulator which is inside the fuel gauge. This mechanical-thermal points type regulator has a coil of special resistance wire wound around a bi metallic strip which...

Might be you have a bad U joint ,bearing or cup that's seized up in the yoke. Last fall I had one go bad on my 66 Charger. Started out making a slight metallic grinding sounding noise at certain speeds and eventually got bad enough that it caused a vibration even at 30 mph.

On the ignition switch, when key is twisted to "start", or cranking position, a full 12 volts ( battery voltage) is applied to the coil. The ignition switch, in this start or, cranking position electrically bypasses the ballast resistor. When key is in the run position, the ballast resistor is...

I had converted from points using the Mopar Performance distributor / electronic ignition system back in 2011 on my 383. Was fine for about 6K miles and became problematic. Engine started running erratically. Checked reluctor clearance, perfect. Swaped orange box with a spare I had, same...

I bought wires from Lectric Limited. Great quality and everything fit my 383 perfectly. Lectric Limited | GM Mopar Ford Corvette Wiring Harnesses / Spark Plug Wires / Battery Cables / Switches

Yep, new tank needed. Spectra seems to be a good choice. Calibrate your sender before you install it. And, new straps and proper bolts to hold it up.
