"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!

"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.
Dennis DiBari"
"Chris,
You are 100% correct. I hope Wayne tries the W/W Kit repair also. It may do the trick. Mine was a bit more complicated. Nice talking to you.
Dennis DiBari"
"Chris,
This does jar some memories from my dad's mechanic shop years ago. We would also shoot a small amount of controlled air into the hole in the reservoir top to see if the pump would prime. It is worth a…"
"Norm,
Necessity is the mother of invention - unequivocally!! Manipulation and perseverance is the key; just as you did! Excellent work.
Dennis DiBari"
"Norm,
GREAT WORK - they work now so you are good with this!!!!
Talk soon.
Dennis DiBari
Great conversations!"
"Norm,
Sounds right. Has to be in that circuit. The wiring is 60 years old and VERY delicate. I try not to touch too much in that area. Some good news for you with the regulator!
Dennis DiBari"
"Norm,
When you put the voltmeter on the battery terminals with the engine running, what is the voltage reading? It should be approximately 14.4 volts. If it is not consistent, the regulator is not working…"
"Hi Norm,
I know that some of the members did make the switch to LED bulbs and they worked. Mine are still regular bulbs. Not sure what to tell you with the other gauges failing. Check if you disturbed any of the…"
"Hi Wayne,
Did you try a Wind. Washer Pump repair kit (white piece where the three hoses attach to)? It has to be put together the same way with the O rings as per diagram. For my 64 Caddy, I did the repair kit, but still no luck. I…"
"Hi Norm,
A lot of times with electrical connectors on the older cars, the connection could be bad. I have used myriad times on my 64 Caddy the Electric Connector spray that I picked up at my parts store. I've…"
"Hi Norm,
Jason's idea is excellent. I also replaced some dash bulbs and only removed the cover plate underneath. They are difficult to say the least. I recently purchased a pair of pliers that he mentioned and they may do the…"
"Hi Dave,
This is great news and I'm glad it worked out for you!!!!!
Dennis DiBari"
"Anytime Dave. If you reset the choke spring, look back to what I sent you before about setting the butterfly on a cold engine. It should be slightly cracked to start and when warmed up, fully open. If not, tweak it when it's…"
"Dave,
I ran up the road to my 64 garage and I do have a bit of play in that cam. It might be made a bit tighter, but some play is probably ok. I still think your choke spring is not connected correctly to the…"

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…Continue

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