    RTE IVR4 dash limiter

    _________________ Not my picture. But yes, the CENTER pin is the 12V input; the LEFT pin is for the 5V OUTPUT and the far right is the GROUND. If you are using the SOLID STATE limiter, there is NO need to run the condensor. Attached is a picture of the solid state limiter I upgraded to. LG, Mike

    RTE IVR4 dash limiter

    ANS: You are looking at it. The ONLY thing between the two hose clamps fastening the copper wire and the one hose clamp at the bottom is the FUEL hose. This contraption replaces the snap on flat metal strap. I purchased one of those straps a few years back and it was way too short.......it...

    RTE IVR4 dash limiter

    I had a chance to work on the RR today. I compared the old limiter to the new one and the prongs are exactly the same width and length. I just did not have it plugged all the way in. I tested the sender with the wire removed and the gauge moved all the way to full. I then installed some good...

    RTE IVR4 dash limiter

    Hi Roadcuda, thanks for the info. Below is a writeup I did on the tank leaking gas- "As I suspected, the sending unit was the culprit. It appears that the ground seal on the sending unit became brittle and part broke off causing it to leak pretty good. Lowering the rear axle helped...

    RTE IVR4 dash limiter

    I have a feeling that they are not just longer but wider as well. I did NOT like the way it went on but I have been driving with it this way for over a year and the gauge was working.............only registered 3/4 with a full tank but working. Now, it is not working at all and I have the new...

    RTE IVR4 dash limiter

    It seems like the IVR4 limiter does NOT go all the way into the dash. ¿ Do the prongs have to be modified to make them seat all the way down ? It's been a while since I installed it. I guess I can try and find the stock limiter that I removed and see how long the prongs are. I'm trying to...

    Sender leaking

    Done deal and could not have happened without the help from this website. As I suspected, the sending unit was the culprit. It appears that the ground seal on the sending unit became brittle and part broke off causing it to leak pretty good. Lowering the rear axle helped tremendously. The old...

    Sender leaking

    GREAT idea, did not consider lowering the gas tank. Wonder which would be easier, lowering the rear axle or the gas tank. I think I will lower the axle and see how much room that gives me to work. If I don't like it, I guess doing what you suggest is definitely a GOOD alternative. Lowering...

    jack stand placing

    I spent the day syphoning approx. 14 gallons out of the tank. The rear of the car is on ramps. I definitely have a leaking sending unit. Looks like the seal where the ground wire connects on the sender. I need to TAKE OUT the sender out of the tank. I prefer to have as much room to work in...

    Sender leaking

    I learned a lot reading about the sender leaking gas on this site. I'm experiencing the same issue. My sender is leaking quite a bit of gas with a full tank of gas. I drained approx 14 gallons today and overflowed my Kia Soul and still added gas to my Sportage and still have the 5 gallon gas...

    83/4 Pinion seal

    Well, good news, I finally got under the car and took a close look at the 489 carrier. It is NOT leaking. I had the carrier worked on when I purchased the car in 2015. I had a specialty shop replace the ring and pinion with a set of 2:65. I have less than 4K miles since the work was done. I...

    jack stand placing

    Working on a COLD garage floor- What are the best locations for placing jack stands on a '69 Roadrunner in order to lower the rear axle to make room for removing the gas tank sending unit. I will most likely also incorporate my Rhino ramps (never too much safety) and will also remove the tires...

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    PROBLEM SOLVED: Not bad, ONLY had to take off the hooker header and do everything TWICE...…...usually, for me, it is at least three times and sometimes four. If I had to do this for a living I would starve to death...………….LOL I went with the PWM 9300. It has all that 'black plastic' garbage...

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    Hi 'quick bird', I have one of those on top of my radiator on my Model A hot-rod. The dove is suppose to indicate how QUICK the Model A was for its time...…LOL I see you have the 440 block. I have a 1972 400 CI motor. I'm new to all this MOPAR stuff. My '69 dream car is the FIRST MOPAR I...

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    If you take a close look at the BLACK PLASTIC, the right section TOP comes off but the bottom portion remains (snaps off- had it off and have NO idea why it is there to begin with). There is also a flat copper strap coming off the black plastic. YES, the 9300 does away with the black plastic...

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    I can NOT understand why the starter I returned had all this BLACK PLASTIC crap that interfered with the engine block to begin with. Attached is the picture of the PWM 9300 that is suppose to work. Will find out as soon as it gets here...………… LG, Mike

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    Thanks, Log onto YOUTUBE and type in "Oxn harbor car show" and you will see my hot-rod and a real nice video. I feel honored that the guy chose my ride as the feature picture for his video. There's another one done and I saw a drone hovering over our cars so I'm sure there will at least be one...

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    UPDATE: Just came back from the auto parts store. The owner told me the starter is a "DENSO" starter and that he has NO other options. I took my stock starter to help point out the fact that the STOCK starter has the POSITIVE cable stud on the bottom where the mini starter is at the top which...

    Mini starter on 400CI motor

    WOW, I hope this is my problem but being caused by the SHIM I installed with the mini starter. ¿ DID YOU USE ANY SHIMS ? How/what modification did you do to the BLOCK? This starter is suppose to be an exact replacement. I sure hope I do NOT have to remove it and return it. Will find out soon...
