I've been having a problem over the past couple of weeks. Sometimes the 440 will start fine, and sometimes the starter seems to have a hard time getting the job done. This happens when the engine is hot or cold. The battery cable is fine, battery and cables are fine, and the starter is only...

Last year, I upgraded the Roadrunner to relays for the headlights. I also had to replace one of the God-Only-Knows-How-Old low beam lamps that was burned out. I put in a new lamp from Auto Zone. The other night, I was driving home and a guy next to me told me I had a light out. Turns out it was...

My headlights are flaking out on me. I have low beams until I hit the high beam switch and then I have no beams. :( I am running my lights off relays, so I suspect the relay for the high beams is DOA, but I was wondering if the high beam switch changes the power flow from a low beam circuit for...

Just when you thought you had seen it all, experienced it all, this happens. Yesterday I go to use my 74 Roadrunner wipers and no bueno. Today I opened the hood and looked in to the wiper bay and guess what I found? About 15 feet of black wire that I had been using to wire in some stuff under...

I'm having some brake light issues on my 74 Roadrunner. :( Here's where I'm at now: I've cleaned the socket and am using new 1157 bulbs. Tail lights and turn signals work, but no brake lights. I have good 12VDC to the brake switch. I suspect the problem is either the switch or the wiring, but...

Where is the best place to wire in an electric choke? Can it be wired into the positive terminal of the coil?

My 74 Roadrunner is having turn signal issues. When you turn the right signal on, both dash indicators glow bright, but no flashing. When you turn the left signal on, they still don't flash but the right indicator is bright while the left is dim. Any suggestions?

I just installed a new Autozone alternator on the Roadrunner, and it looks like it's bad. I'm showing a discharge on the dash meter and the battery voltage isn't increasing. Since I have headlight relays I know the alternator is connected to the battery, so it looks like another trip to...

I'm looking for a diagram of a 1974 Roadrunner bulkhead connector that shows the numbers for each connector.

I'm a bit confused here. I'm trying to get the savaged wiring harness of mt 74 Roadrunner into order, and I'm getting a bit lost when it comes to the primary wire coming off the alternator and to the bulkhead connector and that goes out to the starter relay. Looking at the wiring schematics...

I'm trying to get my 74 Roadrunner back into sorts before putting the new engine in, and the guys who pulled the old one didn't label squat. :( Looking at the positive battery cable, there are two wires, one thick and one thin, that run from the clamp down to the starter. I'm using a...

So, I'm a frigging old, fat, guy with bad knees who hates having to do 10 yoga moves to get under the dash and replace a fuse when one goes, so before I put my 440 into my 74 Roadrunner, and while I have LOTS of room to work with, I was thinking of replacing the stock fuse box with one mounted...

I was tearing down the 73 Town & Country wagon I got for a parts doner and found something interesting. Sometime over the years, someone had taken the wires off the factory amp meter, soldered on extensions to them, and ran them out the Volt meter of a a Stewart Warner gauge cluster. I guess it...

I just got a 73 Town & Country with the Chrysler cruise control system. There's a cable that runs from the control to the carb, which is a no brainer. There are several wires and what looks like a tube running from the control. Anyone know what all connects to what?

I'm working on my first C body, a 73 Chrysler T&C station wagon, and I noticed they have a special bracket that bolts to the firewall and the ECU bolts to the bracket, so the ECU is about 1/2" out from the firewall. I've always seen ECU's bolted directly to the firewall. Any idea why they would...

I've always wanted to add a NASCAR-type ignition/starter panel to my 74 Roadrunner and delete the use of the column key lock. So if I wanted to do that, what wires in the column would I need to cut and splice into the ignition and starter switches? I'm thinking one toggle switch for the...

I just finished upgrading the headlights on my 74 Road Runner so they run off relays. The parts list was: - Two 30 AMP Bosch relays ($20 off ebay) - 12 feet of 12 gauge red wire ($6.99 at Autozone) - 12 feet of 12 gauge green wire ($6.99 at Autozone) - 25 feet of 14 gauge white wire ($4.99 at...

I was talking to a co-worker who's Dad has a vintage Camaro. To prevent it from being stolen, he installed a manual cut off valve into the fuel line where it passes by the driver's seat, and the handle for it comes up through the deck next to the seat. When he gets out, he turns the knob off, so...
