11:37 AM, JOE FULTON spouted this sage advice:> Don,> > Matt H. on this list has documented how to date code> some of the engine accessories. He will probably> chime in with specifics, but I think they are on his> website.Actually, I owe a lot of what I know about the date codes to Tom Benvie. A long time ago [in a galaxy far, far away] he posted a bunch of information on what is date coded and where to look for them. My 67 wagon is a low enough mile car that most of the stuff on it is original. I just took pictures.Anywho, AMC did not stamp serial numbers into major components like GM, Ford, and Chrysler so it can be hard to tell if you have the original parts or not. Most parts did have a date code on them but they were sometimes just ink stamped or painted on. Those types of markings don't survive very well (especially if the car was freshened up or had major mechanical work in its past).On your car, you will have a serial number that indicates what 
engine it came with, general body style, and maybe what type of carburetor. All of that comes from the letter in it. The numbers are, of course, the serial number and it was assigned when the order for the car was received by AMC.The body tag (which is attached to the front drivers door under the latch) has a lot more information. http://www.amcyclopedia.org/node/58 has a bunch of the information about how to decode the tag but that page is incomplete. There is an unlabeled number at the bottom of that tag that is the number assigned as the car went down the assembly line. I haven't seen monthly break downs older than 1963 model years but production would be pretty steady so you can estimate when it was made by subtracting the starting number (it wasn't always 1) from what your tag has on it and then dividing total production by 12 and figuring out where you car fits in. This should get you within a month or so of when your car was built. BTW, production usually started in 
August and I based on the numbers I've seen for other years, there was likely a plant shutdown in August to allow for tooling changes for the upcoming model years.Once you know "when" your car was made, you can compare that to the date codes of various parts. Things like engines, transmission, and axles typically didn't sit around but smaller parts may have been several months old when installed. http://www.mattsoldcars.com/1967american/date_codes.shtml is the page I put together showing date coded stuff from my wagon.Also, AMC didn't keep ultra-detailed records like other manufacturers did. For example, there's no way to find out how many pink 60 Ramblers with A/C, bumper guards, and power steering were made. Production was typically summarized by month and sometimes by engine size within a given line.Matt-- mhaas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, OHhttp://www.mattsoldcars.com1967 Rambler American wagon1968 Rambler American

The gawd awful thing aboutthis is the AMC suspension (or any make 
for that matter) will be intolerableon the average bull crap bumpy road. The rough ride and racket from loosetrim etc. will drive you nuts. The front suspension won't like to be allowedto go to full droop, because of the additional stress placed on the strutrods when drooping. this could be disastrous to the strut rods if they aremarginal at all. However the car will handle better to begin with,especially with the correct alignment. If you add the 1-1/8 diameter frontsway bar and the 3/4 rear sway bar you'll see even more improvement.After you out grow that set up a full on custom designed and engineeredsuspension is necessary. I think Penske had the AMC figured out rather wellfor the early 70s but with today's technology and computer aided engineeringand drawing I'm sure a good suspension engineer could whip out somethingvery impressive. Besides I think all of Penskes secrets are either gone orno one wants to share them with us, I've been asking and searching to noavail.Nick

A bad ECM (computer) or a bad fuel pump relay (or wiring problem), and fuel injection problems can also cause this problem. My younger brother had an S-10 once that had a bad ECM and relay in it (along with a bunch of wiring problems that lead to the ECM being fried).When you turn the ignition on after the car has sat for awhile, do you hear the fuel pump run (most cars run the fuel pumps for a few seconds to pressurize the system)? If not, you may be able 
to bypass the relay and get the fuel pump to run. If bypassing the relay makes it run, it's either a relay or ECM (this can include other sensors). BTW, if bypassing the relay doesn't do anything, try banging on the tank. If the fuel pump starts running, the pump is bad.What you really need to do is get a factory manual and follow the no-start guides. http://www.alldatadiy.com/ has this information online. You may also need a scan tool (they are pretty inexpensive for ODB I systems) to do some of the procedures ant I can guarantee you'll need a digital volt/ohm meter. They key is to figure out why the ECM isn't turning on the fuel pump.MattOn 5/21/2008 9:35 AM, Joe Smith spouted this sage advice:> I can't drive my Rambler when it rains yet because I haven't put the windshield wipers back on...> (I had to work some AMC content in)> So I drove my 89 Honda Accord, and here is my question...

Hello  guys, I've been a silent list reader until now. The talk about the wiper blades brought back
a great memory. A buddy and I drove from Kenosha to Florida in a "63" Classic. We went down to 
pick up his brother and bring him home on leave for Christmas. We drove down and straight back. 
We ran into and ice storm and everyone was pulled over but the Rambler just kept going. We had to 
reach out the windows and break the ice off the wiper blades just to get a wipe every once in a while. 
When the blade got too heavy it would go clear off the winshield and we had to stop and put it back on. 
We slipped and slid for about 250 miles...what a GREAT time. Nothing like those vacuum wipers!!
On a seperate note I will be on vacation in Kenosha July 19th to Aug. !st. Does anyone know of any 
AMC car shows or car club meetings happening at that time? Last time I was there I drove through Salem
and saw a Pacer for sale but when I came back later I couldn't find it. My wife has wanted a Pacer since 
they were new. Thanks alot guys,
