I recently replaced both battery cables with new ones, a few days later i popped the hood and found the pos terminal was black, like something had burnt. my in car voltmeter shows right about 14 volts when cruising and about 14.6 right after start up. I have felt the terminals while the car is running and it does not get hot. Any ideas what could have caused this?

Its in my 75 duster and the only electrical mods under the hood are adding relays for the headlights, but those weren't even hooked up at the time.

Awhile ago I got a running 318 out of a 78 Lebaron to put in my dart.Well I'm just about finished and I decided to take apart the distributor for a good cleaning and rebuild.I pulled the pick up coil off and top plate and much to my surprise ther wasn't any counter weights or springs. It doesn't have vac advance and there's even a plate that covers where the vac diaphram would be.Is it possible to have a distributor like this that works?I know the car ran before I pulled the motor hell I even drove it for awhile.Here is the #off the distributor 4091140 Maybe it has something to do with the lean burn set up?Any inf would greatly appreciated.thanks Mark

on my 70 340 swinger this one

or this one they list both . Will be changing to mopar electronic ignition in future if that makes a diff .

Thanks

I really want to run a one wire alternator on my Dart. Would this be expensive and would the rewiring be a major headache?

My question is---it seems that quite a few of you think the chrome ignition module is a little too hot for a daily driver. I was thinking I could have the best of both by rigging a straight wire from the battery to the coil on the same momentary switch I will be using for the nitrous. That way I have the benefit and dependability of an orange box and the extra volts to the coil only when I engage the nitrous. The nitrous blasts will be limited to 15 seconds, I'm thinking that extra juice for brief periods won't hurt the coil.What do you think of this????

I want to run 22 initial and 34 total timing. But the smallest advance bushing is 18 degrees, how can I get the 12 degrees like I want. Do I have to make my own bushings? The dizzy is model 8534 and comes with 4 bushings, 28,25,21,and 18 degrees.

I replaced the entire switch component inside the steering column, but turn signals still do not work. Tail lights come on with headlight switch, so I know it is not a burnt bulb problem. Nothing happens when I try the signals though. Is there a turn signal relay anywhere?
