I have fixed the problem, it turns out that one of the two connecting plugs at the Constant Velocity Regulator had popped off its prong put it back on and all is good, all gauges are working again. The real pain was getting to the VCR...

Thank you Paul I agree a cold beer will fix the problem, or perhaps several beers will do. lol I keep thinking about the way the new starter is wired, about two weeks ago I had the starter installed, shortly after that my turn signals started acting up on then off, now the other day I start her up ,...

I checked out the Electric Schematic and it shows the Fuel, oil and Temp gauges, all show one connection going to the Constant Velocity Regulator, I am hoping its a bad CVR. All three gauges died at the same time. Problem is I replaced the CVR about a year ago. And I recently had a new Starter insta...

Is this the right thing to do, and what coolant would you all recommend for this 428 Cu in , 1966 Town Landau. Here Flori...

Hello all out there in Birdland, I have a 66 Q Landau 428, just as I finally got her running real good, suddenly as I am going along about 40 -50 Mph, the car hesitates and wont go any faster, will run fine below 40 mph, but if I try to go above 40 mph it wont do it, it doesn't die just wont feed mo...

Hello Birdland, This kinda related to the above situation: I have adjusted three of the headlights to there proper position, but the fourth Bulb ( Driver side outside bulb) the vertical adjusting screw will not budge, it is a Phillips screw , do not want to strip it, need to turn counter clockwise t...

Paulr and Terry,

Thank you for your reply, these pictures have been a great help with getting this process started, I owe you guys, great help.

Paulr, Thank you for your reply, it really helps and is appreciated. So now I know where the blue VAC diaphragm unit is located, Where is the Control Head, behind the console?? A little leary on tackling this process, will take it slow. and Great Pictures really help. Once again , Thank you John T.

This pic shows you your liquid line, low pressure hose, and expansion valve, none of which can be seen because right now they are all smothered in a black cork tape, which has to be removed first, and replaced afterwards. Just to give you a look at what's up there. Good luck. IMG_3289.jpg Paulr, In...
