"Yesterday I installed the windshield washer pump kit, I primed it and it worked! I did have to clear nozzles and replace the lines to them but all is working now.
Thanks all who contributed.

"Wayne,
If it is the W/W pump piston itself, I also have a rebuilder who is great. Jason's contact is a great recommendation!

63 vs 64 Hood V Size Difference
The 64 hood V is considerably bigger than the 63 hood V, and one of the many things I have not done in dealing with these cars on the last 3 decades was to do a direct comparison. Someone asked about the difference a couple days ago so I finally put them size by sized and measured. This is useless information for most people on the planet but thought I would post these specs for the curious minded!Here are the Specs:- Tip-to-Tip: The 63 V is 8 1/8" wide. The 64 V is 9 5/8" wide.- Diameter at…See More
"I remember having to prime my pump also. I think I had removed the hose and had a big jug or container of water held above, siphoned some until it starting coming out then attached to the pump and operated it.Right now, I have the opposite problem…"
"Wayne,
Good luck with the kit. Make sure you put all the rubber pieces from the kit in the exact same places as they were in the old unit - careful when you take it out.

"Already have checked the fluid. It was food fluid and the screen was clear.
Thanks Curt

"I tried priming the pump but no luck, I got a little fluid into the pump body but it would not pump.
Thanks for your input Chris, Ill post the fix when I find it.
Wayne"
"I have ordered a windshield washer pump rebuild kit from Caddy Daddy and should receive it very soon. My pump mechanism seems to work properly so I'm thinking that should solve the problem.
Thanks for your input Dennis. "

I sometimes get asked what radios were used in 1963 and 1964 or verification of a radio model number, so I scanned the radio listing from a 1968 Master Parts Book that covers 63 to 68 which covers…Continue

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
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 1 Like
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!
