    Frying noise from steering wheel?

    Having had both a house fire and a car fire, I would not leave the battery connected and the car unattended until the issue is solved.

    No spark when cranking but tries to fire as soon as I let off the key.

    I would spray the connectors and sockets with dioxit and stick the plug in and out a number of times. Then rinse.

    Dragging starter

    try the jumper alone and see what it does. I would add jumper cables from the battery to the starter to eliminate the power cable as the issue.

    Bypassing the ignition?

    Had a Scout that would act up. Changing the delco starter is a huge pain, but on the occasion it failed to start, I could reach through just above the frame and under the inner fender with an 11/16 open end and not even get dirty. I was always vigilant making sure it was in park lest I get run...

    Bypassing the ignition?

    are you wanting to just turn it over as the ignition switch gives power to the coil but not the starter, or both? A remote starter switch will hang on to the starter, you can leave it there. I assume going 12v to the input side of the ballast puts 6 volts to the coil. 12 volts will have it...

    ‘66 Charger Neutral Safety Question

    If it hasn't been started, I would recommend finding a thread on bringing a Mopar back to life. A witches brew of chemicals down the intake and spark plug holes to get lubrication to rings and cylinders. Turn it by hand with a breaker bar. Oil change. Pull the distributor and turn the pump...

    Aftermarket underdash cassette expert

    oh hell, I was thinking 8 track. Don't know anything about cassettes except they hardly ever work when used and they will usually have multiple belts buried deep.

    Aftermarket underdash cassette expert

    You can have a look yourself. They have covers top and bottom that come off with a few screws. I sometimes open them up like I was a member of a bomb squad or something, making sure there isn't a spring or wire attached. There are things like capacitors that dry out and go bad, even...

    Aftermarket underdash cassette expert

    I found a place by asking at a music store. They couldn't do the repair I needed and sent me to this place. Might be somebody in Manitowoc? If you can't find anybody, I'll PM my guy's phone number

    Aftermarket underdash cassette expert

    If you stick in a tape and listen closely to the deck with the volume down, you will probably hear the motor. Most likely a broken belt. The last NOS deck I sold, I pulled the cover and the belt was plumb good. I expected to replace it, that's why I pulled the cover (as I hoped and prayed it...

    Timing and Reading Vacuum

    19 is about as good as it gets. Pop open a cold one. One of my dad's friends was a line mechanic at the International dealership. They would take the big trucks to a highway leading out of town to set the timing. It's a steep hill two miles long, so they could put a load on it, stop and...

    Timing and Reading Vacuum

    Plus, my IH FSM's say to give it one degree advance for every 1,000 feet of elevation. Living at 4,000 feet, I find the difference to be noticeable.

    440 Source Alternators

    Purple Beeper is correct, it could be a ground. Do you have a real rebuild place near you? Not AutoZone or nap, well maybe a Napa if they rebuild in house, but somewhere with some expertise to test it for you. That, or do you have or can borrow a known good one to test with?
