So somehow my ignition wires completely melted and fried. I hope I can just get a new connector with a maybe 6 inches to a foot of wiring and cut out the burnt wires and splice in the connector. Any thoughts? Like 4 of my wires completely overloaded and melted.

Losing my mind here. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I had my engine rebuilt, I added a fitech fuel injection, I upgraded the alternator to I think an 80 amp. I have a new battery, i have taken this alternator in previously to be tested. I swapped out the engine wiring harness last...

Right by the battery. Need to replace it, no part numbers listed on it. Anyone know?

Having some bad battery draw. Took my volt meter, disconnected the negative and tested the negative pole on battery against the negative battery terminal and it's showing like 12 volt draw. No wonder my battery is dieing all of a sudden. But wasn't doing this before. I will admit I have a ton of...

I have a 68 Newport 383. Fresh rebuild, FItech fuel injection. Battery and alternator are a year old. I've had so many problems with this car I don't really know when the problem actually arose. I fix one thing and another breaks. I'm on an endless trajectory now. I've been having to keep...

Frustrated to have to post this but here goes. As some of you may know i recently upgraded to a pertronix electronic ignition. Had a ton of issues. So as a result of that and previous issues I bought a brand new alternator, brand new gold level battery, new coil, and new voltage regulator. I've...

I bought a custom steering wheel. It uses their own hub. There's a gap between the horn button and the hub and does not make a connection. I don't have a hub puller in me at the moment but I have the original horn pieces. With the original horn it looks like when you push it in it compresses...

I tried to tag on to another post but figured I'd just post my own thread. I upgraded my headlights on my 68 Newport. They are very dim. I bought a headlight wiring harness with the new relays. The initial install looks easy and straight forward. I just don't know where to plug it in to the...

Have a message into their tech support. Figured I'd get some help here too. I'm at work so can't do anything til I get home but here goes. Have 68 newport with 383. Bought the igniter 2 pertronix. 91381a. Feel like I have everything installed right but it just keeps trying to turn over without...

I have a 68 Newport 383 4 barrel. I've been reading that the ignitor 1 series can potentially fry out if you leave the ignition in the on position for too long. I've read that may have been on the older models and not necessarily the newer ones. I did a search and tried reading all the...

I bought a really cool steering wheel I put on my 68 newport. Really happy with it. But I'm having trouble getting the horn hooked up. The adaptor the company provided sticks about a quarter inch or so above the horn button inside the assembly. Their tech support said they don't offer the part...

68 Newport. I installed a new wiring harness and turn signal plate last week. My problem was I had to hold the turn signal on or off, it wouldn't stay on. I ended up breaking the cam even further and had to replace the entire assembly. So now with my new plate it stays on when I turn either...

I thought my brake lights were working fine before. My turn signals worked fine but the cam was broken on the inside so the turn signal switch wouldn't stay clicked up or down, had to hold it. Well in my infinite wisdom I bought the wrong part and broke the turn switch plate altogether inside...

so i have a 68 chrysler newport convertible with non tilt column. on the turn signal lever the spring worked but the top and bottom of the cam broke so you had to hold the lever to keep it flashing. i got a new steering wheel and figured good time to try and fix it. i looked up 68 chrysler...

Just did the ridiculous task of pulling my old stereo out to try and update to a modern stereo. Looking at the fsm and not really getting anywhere. There is only a red and orange wire. Im assuming the strap I unbolted from the back is the ground. I ran out of time to test so thought I'd ask if...

In my modern vehicle with the blade style fuses they make a convenient power splitter where you take your fuse out, plug in this special fuse splitter that has a wire coming out of it so you can add power to an accessory very easily. Tried doing internet searches for how to do something similar...
