Should I believe this chrome coil is really "high performance"? I get the feeling it may just be high performance chrome. On the bottom is inscribed "Japan". You never know what you're getting when you purchase a "complete" 340--oil pan to air cleaner these days. It's no larger than a stock coil...

My 273 bracket racer was set up for 35 degrees BTDC total timing (I think that was recommended back in the 1970's for a Mopar small block. Now with a basically stock 318, I would like to ask what total timing some of you out there in the real world are running in stock built 318's? Thank you...

I used to run one set of spark plugs cruising Main St. and another set at the drag strip. During the switch, I would install new spark plug gaskets which made it easier to guess the proper torque while tightening while feeling the gasket compress a little bit. Did not hurt sealing either. This...

I have a 48 month maintenance-free auto battery that reads 13.0 volts in the evening and then 10.6 volts in the morning. So I ran the engine for 15 minutes while reading a 14.3 volt charge and then shut off the motor. The battery was back to reading 13.0 volts. I disconnected the negative cable...

This is a '72 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus 318/auto. I have used 3 voltage regulators, the one that came on the car when I purchased it and two aftermarket units. The same thing with any regulator: no charge at idle speed but charges like a champ at any speed above idle. This change is...

I think I already mentioned this in a previous thread listed under '71-'74 BBodies, but it is still bugging me so now posting to electrical thread. My passenger side tail light lens is only about half as bright as the driver's side. In the photos, it does not show up very well but in person it...

I would rather see an RPM tach reading than a MPH readout.

One of these days I will try this:

My '72 Satellite has a two wire ballast resistor. I found a spare in the glove box marked RU11 but online search tells me it does not fit my application and that I would need an RU4? Anyone know the the differences here? Thank you.

Have a horn pad (hard style, not soft/padded) on a tuff wheel that i neef to remove to replace the stock steering wheel. Do I pry, pull, twist or all of the above? Thank you.

Mopar 4494002 power antenna package for sale on ebay. Anyone ever use one? Would it fit my 72 SSP? Thank you.

Once in awhile, first thing in the morning, my original '72 318 SSP won't start. The starter spins just fine, but no ignition. I know it has fuel because I first operate the carb accelerator pump by hand to squirt a couple of shots of gasoline into the intake manifold and I can feel/hear the gas...

I know the fender mounted turn signals help one to remember to cancel the turn signals, but an audible "clickety-click" is also a good feature. Do any of our B Bodies (or A Bodies for that matter) use an audible turn signal warning? The reason I ask, just replaced the combination switch on a...

Broke my glove box lamp socket, any replacements available? Found wire but missing complete map light, what does it look like? Thank you.

Are the dash voltage limiters available for purchase new for the 1971 -1974 B Bodies? Thank you.

Factory power antenna optional? If not, who has experience installing a good one? Thank you.

1972 Plymouth Chassis Service Manual: on page 8-160 (fig. 17 - Instrument Panel Wiring - Rallye Cluster Satellite) There are two arrows pointing to the red and black terminals of the ammeter and below the arrows is printed "Not used with 60 or 65 AMP alternator". I wonder what is meant by...

I have a Chrysler AM radio that someone gave me and a have a few questions: 1) How is it grounded, by the mounting stud on the back or the wiring? 2) Is the screw showing on the outside of the case near the antenna an antenna trimmer/adjuster? 3) Is there any reference source available to look...

Can't seem to get the tail light sockets in project 72 SSP to accept the bulbs. Purchased some new sockets at auto parts store. How does one swap in the new ones? Any advice or tricks? Could not find a thread discussing this after a search. Thank you.

Bought a '72 SSP in pieces and trying to sort out the underhood wiring harness and don't want to ground any live wires. Would like to ask how many ground wires there are and where they attach, beginning with the negative battery cable, to an intake manifold bolt or elsewhere? And what other...
