Hello again, happy Sunday.
In changing valve cover gaskets today, I found these two lovely pieces in the front lower portion of the passenger side cylinder head when I remove the valve cover. I cannot see any visible broken pieces so I am assuming they have come from somewhere else? I realize...
Hi everyone,
Not even sure if this is for a 69 Super Bee but it came in the trunk. It has four screw holes and looks like it might hang something, but I have no idea what it is and where it would go.
Thanks very much, happy Friday.
Mikey.
Hi All,
Hoping you can help point me in the right direction as to how the cable routes from the inside of the car to the control lever of the fresh air intake system. My car did not come with a cable (big surprise there) so wondering the proper way to route. And which sided it connects to. I...
Hi all,
Our '69 Bee came with a bunch of small parts and some trim that need to be put back on. Can anyone tell me what these various clips are and where they go? I think the ones in the left row are for the headliner metal trim? If so, could someone maybe post a pic of that piece installed...
Hi all,
I have Rallye gauges in our '69 Bee. The temp reading is accurate (new sender and T-stat installed), fuel gauge is not (new sender from Van's) but at least it registers and I'm getting used to where the level is at certain points. My question is on the OP sender. I used a Standard...
Hey all,
What I thought was a lifter tick seems to now be the fuel pump and/or the FP push rod. While the engine was running, I took my mechanic's stethoscope and listed to the valve cover, front to back, and then the exhaust manifold, front to back and heard normal engine noise - rather...
Hey all,
In working though all the kinks on our Bee, I'm noticing that there are places where it looks like water can pool, not drain, and possibly lead to rust, etc. down the road. I know that many of us don't drive our cars in inclement weather for various reasons but for those who do...
Hi All,
In going through this Super Bee I found that it already has electronic ignition. I’m wondering if anyone can tell me if this is a Mopar unit or some type of aftermarket unit based on the Mopar electronic distributors.
Thanks for all your help,
Mikey.
Hi all,
The rear end is about an inch higher on the passenger side. The front is about 1/4 inch higher on the same side. I know the original springs have never been changed but it looks pretty level/good, looking at it from either side, and the ride is very nice. In reading posts and looking...
Hi all,
The push-on retainer that keeps the split bench seat on the driver's side isn't staying on the little peg that the seat pivots on, when I fold down the seat. I'm not sure if there is supposed to be sort of groove that the retainer sits in but there seems to be none. Any ideas on how I...
Hi all,
69 Bee with a 383, 22" radiator, no AC. The car runs and cools fine except at idle in hot weather, it starts to creep up. I will be installing a shroud soon but my questions are:
- Why does the temp gauge go up when the engine is turned off? Is this just residual heat going into the...
Hey all,
Happy Friday. As my 383 warms up and reaches close to the 1st tick on the pressure gauge, it's around 20+ PSI at idle. But when fully warm at idle reads 10 psi with the Rallye dash cluster. I feel that's kind of low but have read that 10-20 is fine. my sending unit is a 90 psi...
Hello and happy Friday to everyone. I just got my parking brake pedal assembly installed but sometimes it grabs and sometimes it doesn't. I can jiggle the release handle and maybe push the pedal to one side or the other, as there is some side to side play, and then it will catch when I depress...
Hi all,
I have a bunch of trim stuff that came with my car. I've read some super helpful posts from Dadsbee and others and I'd like to install the cheapie plastic trim from YearOne that I already have onto the headliner and rear window. (see pic below on the left). My sides, top and bottom...
Full dash wiring harness from the bulkhead connector at the firewall to everything on the dash and out to the door switches. This one was installed in my Super Bee however it was incorrect because I have the rally dash that needed to buy a new harness. This one was purchased from Classic...
Hi All,
When I bought my car, the PO had many parts in boxes, still needing to be put on. I’m coming down to the homestretch of the interior and I’m pretty sure these pieces go over the weatherstripping on the upper window of the door. But I don’t know how they are supposed to mount. Anyone...
Hi all,
Dome light:
In the effort to continue learning this car and reconnecting the things that were not connected, the dome light harness that runs from the light down the driver side A pillar has a different connector than the one that came in the new harness for the Rallye dash. The light...
Hi all, how in the heck do you get to the next to the last exhaust manifold bolt on the diver side on cylinder 7? And what size is it? I’m having a heck of a time with the steering column in the way and every size socket I’ve tried, doesn’t seem to fit where the manifold kind of curves over...
Hi all,
Hoping for some input. Like the title says. I installed a new cable because the old one was run incorrectly and the sheathing was pretty rough. But the old cable turned. The new cable installed pretty easily and I have sweeping bends all the way up to the speedo. I heard the...
