I'd forgotten about the MP repackaged MSD boxes. Quite a colorful collection there! In the old Mopar Perf "talks" which MP's Larry Shappard presented at the 1980s Mopar Nationals, he mentioned the small steps they were making to get more repro parts into their portfolio of parts. He mentioned...

At the assy plant, it is done by pulling a vacuum on the master cyl's brake fluid reservoirs. After the vac level is attained and stabilized, then the fluid goes in through the same fixture. Something of the same thing can be done by quickly stabbing and releasing the pedal. When the pressure...

Most seem to install them near the tank and leave them in the trunk. A few threads in here on them.

Typically, yes. When you unplug the connector near the center of the column, hook some smaller wire around that connector and then rotate it to be parallel with the column. Then push it into the solumn and gently pull upward on the removed switch. The connector should come out with the wire...

Steering wheel comes off, no need to take off covers. Might need a "lock plate depresser" tool to get the round snap ring off and re-installed when done. CBODY67

Emergency flasher and the signal light flasher are TWO different flashers. Both circuits go through the turn signal switch. Check the wiring schematic in the Chrysler Factory Service Manual for your model year. CBODY67

Are the battery terminal posts AND the inside of the cable ends CLEAN from having been cleaned with a wire brush cleaner? They might look good, but actually have a thin layer of gunk between them. I used a meter and had voltage through them, but the relay would not click when the key was...

The old points-style voltage regulators were supposed to be set for 13.2volts when running, with the ambient air around the regulator at 80 degrees F or so. Unless you want to buy a battery, get a battery charger and fully charge the battery. If you need to remove it and take it inside (or on...

In one respect, using a star lock washer under the existing flanged-head bolt and then one between the ECU and the body might even be better?

Condensers, if equipped, can fail too. Only buy NOS items, if possible. CBODY67

The electric choke is not the issue. I had a TQuad 9801, w/electric choke, on my '67 Newport 383 4bbl with no issues at all. With the stock a/c alternator. ONLY thing is that the power to the elec choke has to be "switched" rather than "direct". How old is the fuel in the tank? Are you...

The trunk lights I've seen on Chrysler products were usually operated by a plunger-style switch (like the side door courtesy light switches) rather than a mercury switch. The light was attached to the sheet metal under the rear window area so it illuminated the spare tire area and the trunk...

With the locating tang on the bracket, it is probably a factory accessory item. Run by a mercury switch in the housing behind the bulb socket. Available from Chrysler Parts in its own package with installation instructions. Just some thoughts, CBODY67

My question is whether or not when Chrysler changed the first control boxes to the 4-pin version, what was done internally when this changed? Thanks, CBODY67

Just read the first page of that thread. Good Heavens! Sand? Transistor caps, empty? Never knew that potting compound "liquified", even in the TX summer. @halifaxhops, thanks for that link! CBODY67

Interesting that Mancini is using the old Chrysler "P-" part number with their name in prominence. The "Made in USA" probably is for that ONE part of the assy, I suspect. YouTube Channel "Dead Dodge Garage" has a segment on replacing the Chrysler control box with a GM HEI module, plus how to...

The wiring schematics are in the FSM. Knowing the color codes, you can see what they go to. www.mymopar.com Then find the FSM in their list. Free download. CBODY67

Blinker Fluid, brought to you by the same people who have "Red Compression"," Blue Compression", or "Turquoise Compression" for the appropriate engine color. Nex month, "Non-Leaking Air" for confident tire use, too.

Looking in the 1966 Chrysler factory service manual (as representative of '65-'68 C-bodies), that bulb number is "1816". Looking in the 1970 Chrysler factory service manual (representative for '69-'73 C-bodies), that bulb number is "330". Two completely different bulbs and related sockets, it...

In the middle 1970s, I used to use Classic Wax on the windshield as well as the car body. Shined nice. The water beaded up well, too. Seemed to be a bit blurry with time and wiper use, though. Ended u discontinuing that practice. Just like the quarter panels, LOTS of surface to cover.
