Hello On my 63 voltage regulator there is a lead from the wiring harness connector that goes to a grounding condenser. It looks like a condenser as there is no number left on it. I can't find any reference in the manual for this item or in any parts catalog. It crumbled when I unbolted it to...

I have a 63 T-Bird for sale. a lot of new parts and a rebuilt engine. $6500.00

I am planing on changing my atf on my 63 and here are my questions. 1) What type of atf should be used. Any comments about AMS oil's atf? 2) Will the transmission be dammaged by being exposed to air after 50 years of so with the same atf? 3) How much atf do I realy need? 4) What's a good...

Pertronics works well. I have noticed a 3mpg increase since i installed it. Runs a lot smoother too. Read all the instructions first throughly. If you do it will be a 20 min. job.

Get a spider wrench from pep boys. wrap some duct tape on the filter (so not to scratch it.) and use your socket set to take it off. Works well for fuel and oil filters. Good luck

I recently installed a pertronics ignitor, electronic ignition unit in my bird. Also the high voltage coil as well. I saw a 3 mpg increase off bat. From 11 mpg to 14 mpg. Not bad for $120 in parts. It only too me an hour to put it all in and time it.

You wouldn't happen to have a parking break release lever. Mine is snapped off.

What type of cleaners, like simple green would you use on the interior? What about armor all as a preservative? Mine is in great shape and I don't want to destroy it with a cleaner that's too harsh or a preservative that will just crack the vinyl later. Any thoughts or hind sight observations...

Anyone have an emergency break release handle bar for a 63. Mine is snapped off at the release mechanism and hanging by the spring.

You need to get under the car and mark the timing mark with white chalk for it to show up. The dwell has to be 26 to 28.5 deg. point gap 0.014 to 0.016. If the dwell is off, your timing is going to way off too. Bye the way, did you disconnect the vacuum line to the distributor before checking...
