I replaced my original fuel pump with a Carter on my 1965 361ci Dodge because it was leaking fuel into my crankcase. Both old/new pumps looked identical. The car runs just fine but after a ride today (maybe 50 miles since the replacement) I noticed a weak ticking from the pump at idle when I...
Thank you! Even though when I eyeballed the new pump with the original and all looked the same, I realize that little difference would not be noticed. I will seriously consider your suggestion.
My 65 has 48k miles with an all original 361 2bbl. The weather has been in the mid 80's in New York and the last 2 times I drove it between 10-20 miles (normal water temp reading) and then turned the ignition off for maybe 20 minutes. Trying to restart the car, it almost ran my battery down with...

Thank you so much for your feedback! Really appreciated! The striker and latch do line up and I have zero play on the hinges so I am going to CAREFULLY remove the door card (any advice would be welcomed with that!) for inspection. Do you have the contact info for that Canadian?
All of a sudden, the passenger door on my 48k all original Coronet 500 convertible will not fully shut. I can push it fully closed but as soon as I let go, it opens an inch. There is zero play in the hinges and I have greased the door latch and tried to adjust the body latch receiver (which was...
