Ok, short refresher, last dec i relpaced starter w rebuilt from usa parts. and even then, after short runs where i got up to temp, if i shutvcar off, and then tried to start, it would drag heavily a d would not start. 10 min later, it would start fine. At the time, i hv cleaned all grounds, all grounds properly, i wrapped wires withe the heat tape, moved them back from exh manifold, things seemed ok.
Last cupla weeks, same symptom, short rides around town, no problems, always starts, longer rides, if i get gas, car barely starts, sometimes, it doesnt even click, i can just hear a humm, after a time or two. , it will slow turn, then start.
So i got bk under car, notced the black wire had a crack anf i coukd see copper. As a temp fix, i put electric tape on it, applied the heat tape, took out for long ride tonight, 45 min or so at 70, [no vibrations from rear, yeah!!]
Anyway, i got out, got in, no start.
So what testing should i do now, should i try to rewire from ignition key to solenpoid/starter, replace solenoid, what further test can i run that i didnt try in dec. my limited knowledge says heat has something to do with this, sustained heat, not just 2 minutes cross town, but longer rides.other than this recurring headache, car doing good

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns.
There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
