    72 Satellite 400ci Plugs, wires, cap, rotor/distributor

    Thanx Bob for your input, I'll do some research on all your suggestions, unless you or anyone knows the most favourable heat range / gap style / firing end metrics for my 400ci? And 3/8" reach refers to what? The height of the insulated contact extending from the block?

    72 Satellite 400ci Plugs, wires, cap, rotor/distributor

    Update, my mechanic said I need 1) spark plug wires with an abrupt 90 degree angle at their end, as well as 2) short stemmed plugs that don't protrude much from the engine block, because right now my plug heads and connected wires are painfully close to the headers. The fabric-like heat...

    72 Satellite 400ci Plugs, wires, cap, rotor/distributor

    Thanks I think I'm all set! Except I can't find the little doo-dads that ride on the valve cover bolt locations and elevate the spark plug wires away from the engine? Can anyone advise? Thanks in advance!

    Replacing metal gas tank on 72 Satellite

    (Cont'd) I'm pretty sure vents are on drivers side not front of tank, possibly because my car was rebuilt as a 71 clone by last owner. I'll look over everything again this weekend before ordering parts and booking service.

    Replacing metal gas tank on 72 Satellite

    Tubes are cracked but I'll check VS also. And that's a good reason to keep vents.

    Replacing metal gas tank on 72 Satellite

    Roger that! I'm I the US twice a month but I'll check national for pricing. 4 vents on mine. Do I have to keep these vents? What would happen if I got one without? The vents are presently cracked and the source of this trouble.

    Replacing metal gas tank on 72 Satellite

    I'm looking to replace the metal gas tank on my 72 Satellite with a plastic one. Presently it leaks. I will have a local shop do the work, but likely I will order the part myself, that seems to save money and they don't mind. Can anyone advise the best way to ensure proper fitment? It's just...

    I'm horrible at diagnosing suspension linkages on any vehicle lol... If I can't wiggle it with my hands, which I can't in this case

    What parts are these?

    I'd like to replace the linkages shown that have little torn boots, etc. Does anyone firmly know which/what they are? Is there a better brand? I feel these didn't last long but I'm a recent owner. Here is the drivers side:

    What starter is best for my 72 Satellite 400ci

    Yes the starter I got actually had pole extensions on it, we'll see if better with or without. I plan to order the basic starter heat shield pouch

    What starter is best for my 72 Satellite 400ci

    Ok thanks I'll look for the heat shield with those guys. Is it easy to install the soft shield after installing the starter? Or must it be done at the same time? Also, there are two starters available, Dakota 91-95 and looks like 95+. Will both fit? If so I'll try and pick the smaller one

    What starter is best for my 72 Satellite 400ci

    This is the starter that matches the BBB N17466, which appears to be Napa p#2446415. These pictures are off two different websites, showing the front and back of the part. Fits 91-95 Dodge Dakota 5.2L. Does this appear to be the correct part to fit my 400 ci?

    What starter is best for my 72 Satellite 400ci

    Ok I've found the BBB N17466 starter locally. Now to find the heat shield, without wrapping the headers is there a basic heat shield solution for the starter that is effective? Could really use guidance on this one, hoping there's a generic sleeve of some sort I can pick up
