    Wipers have not been working properly. When first turned on, in what should be a variable speed range, they go only at one speed - which is the speed of the next "click"...

    Re: Turn Signal Troubleshooting

    When you say pull the connectors for everything but the bulbs, do you mean yank all but turn signal connector from the wedge block? Or pull wires from the turn signal connector

    Vacuum transducer hose came loose doing regular maintenance. I can find the connected end in the manual but not the loose end. Anyone have any idea what this plugs in to?

    Manual shows a ratchet and socket removing the brake caliper guide pin, and is exactly that descriptive. Real life shows a round rubber grommet around a round pin with a...
  10. Re: Not-So-Permanent Floor Pan Repair or Patch?

    Is this seam sealer in the same vain as "Zinsser Watertite" or similar? What I've found is usually poly or poly/vinyl in a caulk tube... The Rusto paint is oil based or enamel

    Also it's been...

    So i've got a rivet tool and some steel sheet metal. i just finished my second coat of rustoleum rusty metal primer. On a bit of a time crunch with this project, but trying to do the best I can with...
  12. Re: Not-So-Permanent Floor Pan Repair or Patch?

    Thanks for the replies - I can't see any rust on either side from underneath the car. The leak I know of is driver's side door weatherstrip, which is why i park on a slight uphill. That side is OK...
  13. Not-So-Permanent Floor Pan Repair or Patch?

    1983 Chrysler L-Body - to no one's surprise my passenger side floor pan is covered in rust. After removing most of it, I saw a few holes that have eaten all the way through. There are two dime-sized...
  14. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    Radiator fan switch is bad - tested with a jumper today.
    Is it bad to drive 5 miles or so with the radiator fan pigtail jumpered like that so it stays on? Want to take it to my mechanic and avoid a...

  16. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    Well the new (83) dash has been installed and I went for my first test drive since the fire!
    Made it about a mile before the check engine light came on. I'm amazed the check engine light works....
  17. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    Soaked all the connections in parts cleaner and it finally came clean. Found one that is supposedly ok for use on plastic

    Good luck doesn't come without its fair share of bad.
    Through a strange series of events there is a 1983 Dodge Rampage 2.2 in my driveway. It has a bit of engine knock and an odd flywheel opposite...

  20. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    She started up today!

    went through and realized i had the firewall bulkhead wired backwards. sometimes the brain is weird - definitely checked this a bunch of times.
  21. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    Replaced all the fuses with correct/new types. Wipers still persistently on when key is engaged. Different wiper control relay didn't help. all sorts of strange things are happening in the steering...

    Thanks, 83scamp for the link to the clips!

    Just did a dry-fit of the dash harness minus the dash. When I turned the key, nothing happened. No clicks, sounds, smells, nothing. I swapped the starter...
  23. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    The engine side of the bulkhead is MUCH easier to get the male terminals out, thank god. I got all the pins out and unwrapped a few bundles of wire to see what the damage was. Turns out only the two...
  24. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    I don't get it ... If I were to order a new bulkhead and replacement connectors, would they all be on modern specs? Or would they use the ideally intact old stock obsolete locking spades?
  25. Re: 1983 Plymouth Scamp GT - Rewiring after electrical fire

    Thanks for the part number, 135sohc. Only seeing the 14-16 gauge ones as possibly available anywhere. I've got a bunch of them stuck in a bulkhead but they're really hard to get out without damaging...
