Fuse box location on 1979 Chrysler cordoba - Cordoba Chrysler Cars & Trucks

79 chrysler codoba ? don't think its a fuel problem ! I can't believe a cordoba ????????/ really ? I knew someone who had one, white w/ blue interior ! WOW ! after all these years, I need to wrap my head around this . give me a minute ! this bucking violently sounds so familiar ! I'm thinking electrical, BAD COIL, when it overheats, it comes & goes ! spark plug wires need replaced also ! what type of distributor ? replace cap / rotor ! whats in distributor , points ? electronic ? ignition module ? I'm so intune with todays cars, can't remember ! TIMING may also be an issue ! have you checked all the VACUUM HOSES ? EGR valve ? TODAYS FUEL is bad for this vehicle ! need I say more !

Try Lucas no slip up to three bottles.remove difference.

Your 30 + year old 318 needs a professional tune up ... suspect a vacuum leak ... look ynder the dash at the heater controls and around the carb.

the wiper motor should be under the dashbord

To: Iteparker,

Why don't you learn how to write proper sentences first,
and work on your vehicle later?

V8s are 18436572 going clockwise number 1 should be marked on cap or closest tower facing you standing at the rad

looked at close-up photo of engine posted on web. Or take out plug to # 1 cylinder, put finger over hole, turn over engine utill you feel compression, then stick pencil in hole and keep turning engine untill pencil reaches highest point. that should be TDC. look to see where rotor is- thats #1.

I have done this with my '79, so yes it will work. Although my car is a 360 four barrel, the external engine size is identical. The black box on the stock air cleaner is the "Electronic Spark Advance" computer. It replaced the more well known "Lean Burn" as the ignition/fuel management system. Since you will be disconnecting and discarding the ESA due to the air cleaner change, another ignition system must be installed to replace it - if someone has not already done so. I used a Mopar Performance electronic ignition system-still available for about 200.00. This will not hurt anything. The chrome valve covers fit right on. However on my car, the vacuum amplifier bracket was attached to the right side value cover which I cut off the stock cover and screwed into the chrome cover. I sealed the screw holes with gasket sealer. I do not know exactly what you are referring to regarding the cover connecting the value cleaner to the crankcase breather. There is a hose from the breather which connects to a fitting on the air cleaner. This hose allows the crankcase to vent into the carburetor during wide open throttle conditions when the engine vacuum-operated PCV cannot function. I do like the chrome effect even if it does require more care and maintenance. Good luck!
