    57 Dodge D100 - Straight 6 - Not Starting

    I noticed tonight that one of the two terminals on top of the remanufactured generator has become unattached from where it connects to in the inside of the generator. The terminal is kind of swimming around with hardly no connection. So this cannot be good. Given that I have been see-sawing...

    57 Dodge D100 - Straight 6 - Not Starting

    Sorry for the late response. Got caught up with this "work thing." The truck was running before I started replacing things. So evidently, I have messed up something. The starter does crank the engine when I turn the key. I have not honestly looked at the ignition side yet. One thing I did...

    57 Dodge D100 - Straight 6 - Not Starting

    I apologize for having to ask this question. But I cannot find the ballast resister. My FSM makes no indication of one either. So where is it within a 57 D100 - 6 cylinder? I do not see it near the coil or on the firewall anywhere. In my other vehicles, the resister was in clear view. I...

    57 Dodge D100 - Straight 6 - Not Starting

    When I turn on the ignition, the starter engages. However the engine does not kick on. I have made a bunch of changes and I am still trying to trouble shoot what the culprit is. Here is the change background: 1.) Replaced the carb with a remanufactured one (did prime it with some gas prior to...

    Installing a fuel pump in a 57 Dodge D100 - 6 cylinder

    Greetings, Although I have installed chevy fuel pumps before, I am struggling a bit with this one for the Dodge truck. I wanted to get some advice in case I am approaching this incorrectly. The rocker arm on the pump is like the lower right hand side of the letter "V." So the arm goes up...

    1957 Dodge D100 Fuel Tank

    Hello, Has anyone with a 57 D100 been successful in purchasing a new/replacement fuel tank that goes in the standard location (partially under the cab and the bed)? I have struck out so far. It seems that all I can find are vendors that will create something for me as long as I provide the...
