Here is my home made distributor run machine with the HEI converted dist mounted on it. I just clamp it in a vise to use it. 2 wires going to a battery and she fires away. You can see the HEI module mounted underneath. This works really well and you can hardly see it on the car. I put a...
From going back and looking at your pictures again it looks like there is a washer on the shaft. I have one distributor that has 2 washers on it. Even with a washer and to much endplay the t bar will contact the rivet. You might need to add another washer. Another thing is that collar the pin...
Watching the thread there is one thing I see you didn't show. There has to be a washer on the shaft above the collar that holds the shaft in, to keep the endplay to a minimum. If there is to much endplay that is why the T bar is hitting the rivet on the plate. If the endplay is correct they will...
Check your voltages like they suggested so you know where you are voltage wise. I'm with RemCharger and would change the condenser in the distributor. A bad condenser will keep it from running and are hard to isolate sometimes.
My wife has a 2020 Nautilus and it has the same issue. She doesn't drive it maybe once a week and setting in the garage the battery goes down. It's never failed to start but it shows messages when she starts it. We took it back to dealer and they said they checked everything and it was okay. I...
From the looks of the starter you're not going to be able to return it so I would take a little off of the nose to see if it is holding it to close to the ring gear.
If you unhook all the wires from the alternator and then with the positive cable unhooked from bat put a test light (not a voltmeter) from pos cable to bat and if it lights there is a draw on the bat. If no draw hook the wires back to alt and try again. If light comes on something inside alt is...
Painless wiring makes a great fan relay kit with a 40A relay and wiring and a breaker too. Everything to put a relay in your system for only $26. Not pushing you, just don't want to see your car burn down for the want of a relay.
Painless Wiring
Going to a bigger alt should help the problem, but you still need to put a relay in the fan circuit. I'm surprised that switch you're using hasn't melted down with that much load going through it. Mounting a relay in the engine compartment and using the switch to control the relay is the correct...
If you remember when the Boeing 787 came out it had LI batteries in place of the APU. Then shortly after it went into service they had issues with the batteries overheating and even had some fires from them. Boeing had to redesign the battery compartment to provide more cooling and to contain...
Get yourself a starter from a 92-95 Dakota. It's a mini starter and will bolt right on and costs a lot less than a fancy high torque one. About $45 for a rebuilt one and around $80 for a new one from Rock Auto. Rebuilt one has a 1 year warranty and new one has 2 year. This is for a Delco...
Nice job on the harness and panel. I can tell you that wiring on commercial a/c are all crimped. As a licensed A&P mech for a major airline for 32 yrs no wiring on a/c is soldered. In the USA under FAA regs.
