"Thanks. I have figured out how to do everything from post hole digging to lugging parts around one handed but I will be glad to get that finger back for typing!"

"Jason,      Sorry to hear about the finger injury.  Hopefully it will heal soon so you can get back to working on your Caddy.  I'm also left handed, so better it happened on the right.  Hope you feel OK. Dennis…"

Fractured Finger, Keyboard Crippled

I haven't posted here much lately but wanted to pop in and say hello and share a minor but irritating personal mishap. Last week I tripped over a short ladder in my garage and came down in 4th finger on right hand. I ended up dislodging my last 2 digits of finger and shoving it under the first digit.  It looked CRAZY.   I went to hospital and they X-rayed and reset the finger and set in place with a splint.   They also said I have a minor fracture.During all of this, even the resetting there…See More

"Pop the battery cable off while running. If it shuts off you know the alternator is not working as it should or wiring isn't correct. I would double check all the connections, especially at back of alternator."

"Dave,      With the erratic shift in voltage, it sounds like a regulator.  Seventeen volts could blow your dash lights.  Be careful not to run it long.  Check alternator, then do the regulator. Dennis DiBari"

"Before any of the changes, it was 16-17. Then only 12 and change after each change. I will test alt. "

"Hi Dave,      While the car is running, what is the volt output on the voltmeter with everything connected?  You should be putting out about 14.3 volts.  My light stayed on last spring because the regulator was bad (the…"

"GEN light can stay on if  your Alternator is bad or not creating current. A quick way to see if they are working is to take a steel wrench and touch the rear center section. If working, it will be magnetized and draw the wrench (or any other…"

Dennis P. DiBari replied to Dave Fehrle's discussion Hesitation on starting after driving
"Hi Dave,       That is the regulator radio capacitor.  They are used to prevent points from burning and to reduce radio static for the AM radio.  This may have an effect.  I would replace it and try the new harness from…"

Dave Fehrle replied to Dave Fehrle's discussion Hesitation on starting after driving
"Have a new regulator, but what is the item in the red circle? GEN light stays on with and without the circled item installed! Now what is causing gen light to stay on?"

Parts Car # 60 is History!

Here is my last view of a parts car when I have them stripped and taken to the local metal yard TT&E.Last night I removed the rear end assembly and other odds and ends under the rear of Parts Car #60 and strapped down for the short trip to the metal yard. It is always sort of a relief to get one completed, but know I will be looking for another one before too long. I need to finish my fence project and putting parts up from this car, but know if the opportunity arises I will jump on #61…See More

Hesitation on starting after driving

I have noticed that after I drive for 5-10 miles or more and then shut off the car, it hesitates when I go to start? Anyone experience this before and if so, what was the fix?Continue

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

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!

accumulator dryer

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on December 6, 2023 at 10:54am 0 Comments

Who rebuilds original AC  accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year ,  There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A    What  is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
