How much patience do you have? Get in there with an angle grinder and a carbide bit. Maybe 5 minutes a bolt.

Pull that cap off and make sure the rotor is still good. I have had a couple times where a new rotor did not get the metal fire part clamped fully and you could move it with your finger. It will cause a problem. Does it sound like it is trying to start? Grab a spark plug and pull number 1...

Agreed!

Last time I posted about this car I was trying to figure out why I had no headlights. Turns out that at some time the bulkhead connector and been separated. When put back together it was done crooked and damaged 3 of the contacts. I built bypasses and now headlights work and so does the dash...

Do you have a catalytic converter? If so remove it or hollow out and see if MPG improves. Go find a know 1 mile run. Mark odo and drive the 1 mile. See if odo is close. Is the choke opening all the way? What is the idle timing setting? Do you still have the vapor return system on the fuel...

I have searched the forum and google all the internet. I have not found exactly what I need. A lot of stuff on the early style connector. Not so much on the 77 and up. :)

Those are some help. But the issue is I want to change my 76 ignition switch (very similar to a 76 A body) to a 77 and up ignition switch. These are the ones that the connector is a half moon shape. The number of wires does not match LOL. Using a mish mash of my Haynes manual and a 76 FSM I...

Need pics of the pages with the ignition switch and through firewall to starter relay. Thanks all!

For the record I have run the flat tappet version on a stock converter and much worse gearing and it was fine. Thanks for digging up the roller equivalent. But you really shouldn't go much bigger.

Get a dremal with a fiber glass cut of wheel. Make 2 cuts on opposite sides of the nut. Don't go all the way way through the nut but about 90ish%. Then get a metal chisel put in one of the slots you just cut and whack away with a heavy hammer. The nut will break. I might have a set available...

Look at the specs for a Comp Cams XE268 and see if you can find a roller version. You can call Hughes Engines and they will probably have a cam shaft that will get you close. Xtreme Energy 224/230 Hydraulic Flat Cam for Chrysler 273-360 It would be a great street cam and you don't have to...

I used an 80 LeBaron as a daily driver for a decade. If I was remotely close I would come get it. I loved that car as a driver!

I have pointed numerous people here from the MANY Facebook groups for these cars. It is like many Facebook people have no idea what a forum is. They ask tons of questions that this board has the answer. I don't get it. I always prefer to check here before anywhere else. I am pretty...

Thx Mike, this will work. I think I figured it out. They tried to convert to a manual setup and I think the extra wire is going to the clutch pedal switch. Which may be grounding out somewhere.

That is a stunningly, nice looking firewall. Sadly mine does not look like that style. Mine still have has the post on top.
