    Sealant under windshield trim?

    Its my understanding these cars were prone to windshield leaks that rusted/rotted the dash. Our car was rusted when we took the dash apart. when washing or raining there was a small dribble of water on the inside of the windshield. Eventually there would be a wet spot on the floor.My wife...

    Interior windshield trim

    Hi guys. Anybody have a pic of how this is held on. I'm assuming there's some kind of clip that the trim snaps into or screws into. But I have no idea what it looks like or where to order it in Canada. Previous owner had the front held on with butyl and the back just hanging. I thought easy fix...

    When my wife bought her car, the dash pad was cracked but came with a new one still in the package. when we went to install it, and took it out of the package it was a thin plastic cover that fit over the pad giving the apearance of a factory pad. We took great pains to install it perfectly and...

    Shorted Wire at Starter Solenoid: the real story

    Just had this happen 3 days ago. Was trying to check a voltage regulator with the key on , and the Black/orange stripe wire at the solinoid started smoking.  Asked the alternator rebuilder about it and he said fileing/cleaning the ring terminal on the wire takes care of this 90 percent of the...

    Alt vs Voltage regulator

    Thanks Rocketman. I watched that vid. several times, I didnt like the part where the voltage shot up to 18v. Decided to pull the alt. and have it tested. The alt rebuilder said my alt was fine and it was a good call not to spike an already fragile electrical system. He ordered me a heavy duty...

    What do you think about Weather Tech floor mats?

    Picked up 4 off the side of  the road. 2 went in the wifes mach and 2 went in the wifes kia. Ive had no issues  but the guy who threw them out must have. I would never have bought new just because of the price.

    #4 Fuse Blowing

    Thanks 71fast  I think you nailed it. My PDF stopped at page 11 so I never would have found that information. I couldnt figure out why I would have an ambient temperature sensor switch in the first place, with no AC or computer but, after some reserch , turns out the sensor tells the...

    #4 Fuse Blowing

    Thanks for your input. You guys ROCK. Solved the problem (sort of) Rigged up a blade type fuse holder from the fuse box and mounted it to the steering wheel for easy viewing.  Blew fuse after fuse so I unplugged all connectors coming out of the firewall.  Still blowing the fuse but now we know...

    #4 Fuse Blowing

    I've got a 1973 351. As soon as the key is turned to the ON position, #4 fuse blows.  This fuse is 14A for the "Idiot" lights.  I've disconnected the (semi-circle) "directional signal connector' and the (square black) 'Ignition switch connector' from the steering column.  I have no continuity...
