Great @Big_John I just used the Ebay link for reference, I know how wrong it can I will buy the joints here in Sweden (SKF is a company that started here many hears ago). I check whats under car :)

Thank you @Big_John @MONC440 ! Driveshaft was the right word! I did some search at the internet and found joint 92869MY (For 1965-1973 Chrysler Imperial Universal Joint 92869MY 1966 1967 1968 1969 1970 | eBay). Theese joints seems to be used by Imperial and New Yorker but not the cheaper...

This spring I did notice vibrations in the drive shaft/axlwe when accelerating. When cars run at a steady speed, most of the vibrations disapear. I I got it right, Imoerials, like my 1969, hade a different kind of axle compared to the regular Chryslers. What shuld i check, could it be the...

Thank you, really good advice!

My radiator has started leaking and I have to remove it for repair. When I looked under the car I found out that the oil cooler line attachment/fitting looks rusty. Lines are probably OK, but Im not sure I be able to loosen the lines, if afraid they will be twisted. Any advice on how to that...

Open the box carefully and check if the servo arm moves when you go från 65-85 degrees.

Problem solved. Insulation between alternator body and batt terminal was bad and the batt stud rustad. I got a new alternator with 2 field terminals and grounded one. Now it charges as it should.

Very nice!

I havnt done anyting. This was what the wiring was when I bought it 3 years ago. Thats make it more difficult and I need some advice.

No wonder that this alternator and charging cirquit is not working! The original insulated brush alternator is replaced with a new newer one, one with a square back and two field terminals. The regulator is also newer and has two wires connected (ignition and one field). One field terminal is...

Yes, it causes heat. I did use my ohm meter and measured 0.6 ohm between alternator batt terminal (did sandpaper before) and the the cable that goes från the terminal. The resistanse from the alternator ground to the ground cable at the battery was even lover.

Its somethng wrong with the alternator, the batt terminal gets really hot. It wasnt rust, it looked burnt. I suppose this alternator have been running hot for a while so it could be damaged.

Yes! Didnt notice that earlier.

Thank you! I bought the car 3 years ago and I did notice that the speed of the fan was higher when driving than on idle- Power went wings sometimes woomnt operite on idle either, but when driving. When I measure voltage over the battery, It wont increase at all when lights or Ac is turned on...

Im not shure I got this right, but I hope! In 1969 Imperial (and mabye some premium Chrysler models) used a new charging circuit with an insulated brush arlternator and a new electronic voltage regulator. Alternator has one batt terminal and one field terminal. In 1970 all chryslers (at least...
