#wiring #wagon #1961
Love how Bill has gotten more comfy with the camera. Great episode
Bill reminds me of tommy Chong
It made me laugh when he said he got recognized at Walmart. I'm glad he's having fun with it.
@@blaircrocker9845 FOR SURE BUDDY, hell all he needs is one of those left handed cigs....ha ha ha.....
Yeah its good but lets hope he doesnt get to comfy.😂😂
Yup! We love BILL. MORE BILL!
The inline fuse link by the high blower relay is the fuse for that relay. The wires below the fan motor are for the blower resistor to give you low and medium speeds. If you remove the resistor and check it probably has the mouse remains burned on it 😅! Love the work! Takes a lot of guts to finish one like this but you have got it now 😊 👍!!!
I hate wiring and electrical. Be glad you didn’t LS swap it! HEI with a one-wire alternator is plenty! Keep her simple! You’re the best entertainment on You Tube!
Yes Bill got way too excited when he seen the marks inside the valve cover.
jasonmorales, yeah he shit the bed as puddin would say huh.....
Hey, you don't need the voltage regulator. The alternator is internally regulated. You may want to look up a wiring diagram from the 70's car or truck for under the hood connections
I was thinking that too, especially with the F (field) A (armature) terminals.. That's all generator stuff, which isn't applicable here.
Pro Tip: I like to use black wires often to hide them, but you can put red heat shrink on the end where it connects to still indicate positive.
You need to lend Mortske a fire extinguisher! 😂 Love your videos!! My husband, son and I watch them each week (both channels). Still waiting to buy a Great Puddini t-shirt. ❤
That fire was weird like lighter fluid
Careful with that wiring. I watched Mortske set another one on fire today.
It wasn't the Buick LeSabre vid I've yet to watch was it?
And he didn't want to use a fire extinguisher on it.
@@johnhopkins6658 .....just a couple bottles of drinking water.....
Didn't detect much urgency with the near inferno. 😂
@@jangles1839 Watch it. 😂
just wanted you to know that me and my dad watch these videos together every week, and it gives us an opportunity to bond. So thanks for the great content!
Spend All The Time You Can With Him...
Yeah spend all the time you can. My pops is why I'm into cars and today is his birthday. But he died a year ago on june 12th. Time is short.
Hey there Puddin ,
You can get your head lamp retaining screw clips in the Dorman Help section at your local parts store ! You may also want too replace your dimmer switch on the floor , and also add grounding straps to your front clip and firewall , they are just as important as a positive for proper electrical circuit to work correctly 😀 👍 😉
Its Monday and another great video by the puddin man I still love your little antics and sense of humor puddin
It's Monday here we go
You mean here we go again
At the factory, those threaded inserts are referred to as "Scrivets". They still use them today for ease of installation. That ticking sound is pretty normal for those early small block Chebbys. Way to go Puddin' Man.
Just when ya think the show couldn't get any funnier... ol' Bill comes along g and has me in stitches 😂
Dash lights is probably going to be the headlight switch or instrument cluster ground. Rotate the knob on the headlight switch to make sure you're not just dimmed down or dirt in the switch. Run the dash screws in and out to get a better ground.
Yay! Monday Puddin video.
Can’t hurt having Bill bring the burritos. The Wagon is starting to come along nicely 👍
The wagon is looking and sounding great Puddin, and your new place is coming along nicely, WE’RE ALL GONNA LOVE IT along with you sir.
Chasing electrical is fun if you have enough room to work which is challenging at times. When you were trying out the heater fan switch I was expecting a cloud of mouse house to come flying out. That stuff just keeps coming even after you think you got it all, hate it with a passion. Good luck on the move, exciting times for you and the family.
If you use the resistor wire it can possibly catch fire. You need a switched hot for an HEI. Full 12 volts.
That relay you were questioning on is for the A/C system, along with the "spare" wires in that area. Those would be for the compressor clutch and the cut-in/cut-out switches.
Been some 45-50 years since I worked on a vehicle of that vintage, so memory isn't to solid.
I love Bill, Glad to see him warming to the camera,
Is ole Bill going to be able to ride his bicycle out to the new shop or is it going to be too far.😅
He is going to need to drive out. It's a good few miles away.
Love this channel
You'd never guess that thing was sitting in a junkyard a few months ago..let alone from 1970. A true brought back to life vehicle.
The green wire is for the a/c compressor. Using dielectric grease on your bulbs and wire connections helps. Especially on the main bulk head on the firewall. Love your shows Skeeter
I dont know how you have the patience you do. If it would have been me who put the fan spacer and fan all together but realized I forgot the pulley, something expensive would have ended up smashed and broken, lol! Great episode Jacob!
If you haven’t used Deoxit before, it helps revive electrical connections. I found it when the volume knob in my radio wouldn’t change volume. A little spray every year or so keeps it working properly.
I use it for all my electrical needs, corroded bulb sockets, etc. Great product, and one can has lasted me years.
Electrical lubey dubey!
there's a lot of different deoxits I'm guessing you have d5... I repair old hi fi so have a whole slew of different cans 😅✌🏻
@@BariLopesh Yes sir, the D5 spray is what I have been using. I bought the squeeze bottle of the D5, but it wasn’t as effective.
That is what I was thinking. But the vintage electronics guys are saying Deoxit is harsh and disintegrates some materials, so they are moving to Nutrol.
Another vote for Deoxit D5. Amazing stuff, worth the money IMHO. 👍👍
I use it on all my vintage electronics and never had any issues (70's receivers, 80's video game consoles, etc). For car stuff, I don't ever see this being an issue though.
@@KameraShy FOR SURE!!!!!
Really sucks when you get the sense a reliable shop is falling off.
Happens so often like you said, someone important passes, or moves on; things look a little more behind or worse for wear when you go by, then the work starts to get affected.
Was surprised there were no complaints on the turnaround time of the alternator, wasn't surprised to see they assembled the casing backwards.
For your windshield wipers: turn them to high grab the wipers and pull on them firm but consistent. Have bought several old cars they were just stove up and worked fine after working them free
and lube EVERYTHING first. motor is probably locked up with some light rust that would be cleared up if it got moving briefly.
That's why we love you puddin, you actually care about what we say and are willing to entertain our ideas even when you think we might not be correct an then you'll even admit your mistake vs playing it off like you found nothing or you found it on your own, so much respect for a content creator who cares about his viewers enough to read our comments and trust us enough to give it a good ole collage try, thanks man your awsome an deserve your success so much more than 98% of the other content creators
Most won't read our comments or play it off like they don't and figured stuff out on there own
Man oh man I'm ready for a great video again! YAY!
Got my merch today! Thank you for the timely delivery even with the shipping problems....
The slice and dice sticker is on my weld cart next to my run your welder not your mouth sticker!
I think it looks and sounds good but I think you still need to tweak the timing just a little bit cuz it's still has a little hard start when you start it you can hear it has a hesitation just a little bit tweak that distributor just a little bit more and get rid of that hard start and it'll be good 👍
I agree may want to send him an email
I loved the "microwaved honey bun" line 😂😂😂. I love the summer time. I always say, no matter how hot it gets, I don't have to scrape the heat off my windshield or shovel the heat off my driveway.
Nah, you just have to mop yourself off the seat and the floor.... Personally would rather a little cold as there are only so many clothing layers you can take off and still be considered polite company....
Don't you hate it when your junk gets in your way or when your junk gets crushed unintentionally while your working...Love your work Puddin & cheers from sth Australia 🇦🇺 👍
HELL YEAH, IT'S GONNA BE ANOTHER GOOD ONE!!
I was one of the people that said that it was the valve cover. I knew you would figure it out. It was another great video Puddin.
If I’m installing a stock harness I usually use the “pull the wires and see what fits where” method, it starts sometimes……
Hey Puddin..run 12 volts to the wiper motor just to see if it works..if so and you are getting power to the wiring you may have a bad switch.remember it sat for all those years it could be bad...and it's a 2 speed..see you on the next one Cheers 🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good old Bill found the problem! Glad to see him. Have a blessed day!
I’ve said it many times but dang this build is awesome! I love me a good station wagon!
I bought a 69 Datsun 510 some years ago. It had some questionable wiring done by previous owners. first thing I did was went to Kinkos and had the wiring diagram blown up to poster size, and laminated. Best tool in my garage. Just an idea.
If you ever struggle getting the riv nut tool in somewhere - you can crimp em down using a bolt with a nut on it . Run the nut down the bolt , thread the bolt into the Rivnut , then run the nut down (use a washer so the nut doesn’t tear up the riv nut)
Your videos have helped with everything going on in my life right now. Thank you, love the video. And the little stuff is the hardest and the longest part of a build.
Yay! Its Puddin Time! Also, I got my "Someday Model A" T-Shirt finally. I hope you gave the USPS a skecher up the wahoo! Best Channel Ever!
Only puddin could make a wiring video interesting 🤣🤣
Correct!!
The loft looks really good! 😊
Awesome work keeping the old stuff on the road, hardest way but its the cheapest and looked like the best fix on the wagon! Glad to see you crusing it down the road!!
Start the week off with puddin and finish it off with Vice grip. Not a bad Monday or Friday if I do say so
Finshing a project and driving it for the 1st time is the best reward!
There was a left and right side with some of those valve covers. So the filler and PC valve can be in the front.
I've said this a few times 😅
Just a thought. Itd be really cool if you slick bill and mortske could build the model A in a video. Just one week thrash from model A to running but not perfect
Hot damn another episode of Puddin 🔥 I've been working on cars for forty years and I didn't realize you could put the valve cover on upside down either😡 the impala is looking and sounding great. Keep up the good work and the cool videos 👍✌️🇺🇲
Just watched this entire build... Again.
Might just be my most favorite thing I've seen on this channel yet.
Hey Puddin ,
I forgot to ask when are you going to install your front bumper ? I think it would look really sweet and also make it look lower to the blacktop !!!
This is one of the better videos on this build...love it!
Love that wagon!
It’s a beautiful set of wheels my pops had a four door one not that wagon
I'm not one for lowered vehicles but the wagon looks nice. I keep watching you they might grow on me.
And, that's how it starts...😉
Low an slow... Well I'm always speeding so.. Ahhh... Damn..
Low life... Hehehe..
try twisting the headlight switch knob back and forth. That's how you dim or brighten the dash lights and it might just have a dirty connection.
I'd pull the switch and give it a good spray with electrical contact cleaner. In fact, I'd do it to all the switches.
I’m 61 and have built small blocks all my life
A good running Chevy motor has a small amount of valve tap I adjust the valves to zero lash plus 1/4 turn
It gives you more low end torque
A little tap is just fine
I’ve built somewhere around 600 motors
Ben waiting lol perfect timing just got parked to watch
"Dirty Ground" was my wife's nickname in junior high, or so she says.... Excellent video, thanks for sharing.
I'm wearing my model A shirt while I watch this. Love it! Keep it up Mr. Puddin!
You have done a great job reviving the great wagon. You taught me a lot about troubleshooting electrical.
your 1 wire alternator should be internally regulated so no need for original voltage regulator
My husband and I got our shirts today.. Thank You Puddin and family we Love You All....
Monday is my new favorite day when it’s Puddin time with a new video.
It would be nicer and stay nicer if they wrapped it with the black cloth tape. I love the stuff. Wiring just sucks for us that don’t know much about it. But I do know you should buy an OFC Big 3 wiring kit. Going direct from your alternator to your battery.
Puddin you do good work and do most everything properly. I’d love to have that wagon when your through with it but would want A/C.
Yep, Monday does not officially start until, “Puddin’ Time.”
@@Ron_Masterjohn .....when YOU'RE through with it.......learn English......
Really like the 61 wagon series. We have been repairing and restoring x-frame cars for years. Those old wiper motors on the 61-62 Chevys are a real pita to change. The usual problem we find is they just need a good cleaning of the contacts on the park switch under the cover and removal of the old hardened grease. Make sure the brass ground strap is in good shape too. Good luck.
The Inside Lights are backup lights! Belair and Biscayne is Outside is park and break lights. I have a 1963 Impala SS and, Good Luck With Project ! Love Watching Your Videos! Keep Up The Great Work my friend. I'm From North Carolina.
All fans of puddin be sure to watch all ads it helps I know it’s hard not too lmao but I watch all ads to support him and his beautiful family ✌️✌️✌️✌️
I watched 2, 2:35 adds in one video.. Done..... Ahh.. Lol
the only thing I appreciate more than your honesty, is your devotion to your family. You are the BEST, keep it up man
Puddins the only scheduled programing iv tuned into regularly since dial up and cable TV
Agreed 😂
Got my stickers today that I ordered last week. Look great and will go in my new shop that just got floors poured over the weekend
I know the pain! I had to re do the wring in my 66 Elk. A hole had cut wires and used wire nuts and crimp connecters in the fuse box! Solder and shrink wrap saved the day!
Heater resister is on the heater box under the dash.
Puddin' just may be the hardest working man on this U-Tube. I bet you will miss having Taco Boy just a few doors down once you move.
Wiring is my favorite. It's just like magic, P-tang. You got this!
I had a sound alot like that on my last big block build. Chased it all through the valve train. Found out it was my mechanical fuel pump. I put a electric fuel pump on it. And was fixed!! Maybe something to look into....
Just finished this Monday watching pudding in my new house
Thanks again puddin and family ❤️
My 64 wipers were completely inoperable. took the cover off the motor and cleaned all the old grease out of it, packed it with new and they've worked flawlessly ever since. not sure how similar they are though
Man, O Man, here we go with wiring again. I spent last week rewiring a VW BUS and it was not fun. Good Luck and I love this build.
I believe Matthew's workshop class has turned into a fulltime cameo. Next generation of wrench turners
***Wiper motor, you should have more wires going to it. I know my 82 GMC square body, which also has the washer pump in the wiper motor assembly has 7 wires on 3 plugs. Plug 1 on wiper motror Fast +, Slow + Ground -. Plug 2 on Gearbox + & - for auto park sensor. Plug 3 on Pump end + & - for drive engagement solenoid. Since you are hearing the solenoid click, then it means you have the pump solenoid connected correctly, look for more plugs on the motor shell. Since your unit doesn't look insulated, you might have 2 or 3 additional connections to find Motor Fast +, Motor slow + and wiper park sensor (if they had them on that model)
Bill makes me smile 😊😊😊😊😊😊
you did a really good job of fixing the electrical on that wagon really interesting
Dude!! Love the wagon!! Dash lights!! Old Chevy p/u pull the light switch, clean the grounds and pull the cluster and check the bulbs!!!✌️
Oddly, I enjoy automotive wiring, owned a car audio shop for many many years.
You make my Monday’s so much better I don’t get off till midnight and I look forward to your videos every week. Keeping Oklahoma proud man! Keep it up!
Lovin the wagon...
The first car I remember was a 63 chevy wagon..
Then my folks bought a 69 wagon..
When my baby brother was born ,that made 5 kiddo's & they bought a 76 Chevy Suburban loaded with options..
My dad bought it on the way through town & we drove it from Tenn to Az..
With front & rear air !
Love the 60's , 70's auto's.
Dude the Jitterbug slam was on point. 😂😂
What a nice surprise to see a fresh one on the table after frying in the Florida sun today, did struts control arms and links on my car, no more lofty wafty
Back in my day when we worked on them cars with that newfangled wind tunnel on the radiator to get to the fan we unbolted the shroud and moved it towards the motor to get access to the fan bolts. And leave the back window up when driving. With the heat you felt coming in is also exhaust fumes. Try LMC truck for headlight mounting hardware they might have something you could use.
Exhaust is side mounted.. Lol
i really like the work that you did on that wagon, i could drive that beauty every day, just as it is, great video and a great job you did
I am an Optician and have a bunch of vintage safety glasses. I sent an email, and I chatted with your wife over a year ago about getting a copy of your Rx, but never heard back. I also have the S10 convertible. I would post pics, but can't here. Lol
Awesome video Puddin! That wagon is badass!
this was a good video. i like the editing and extra stuff you put into this one.
Good show and I'm also one that likes your mail time once and awhile hope you consider bringing it back from time to time
I'm glad for you that you have gotten the gremlins fairly straightened out. Good job!
I enjoy the wiring diagnostics. Building the engine, transmission, rear end is easy. Fabrication and wiring shows ya who the men are.
We recently installed a rebuilt 350 (.040 over) mild Comp flat tappet cam. Did the cam break-in and all seemed fine. Then just as we were finalizing the last few details, it developed a pronounced ticking sound. Did everything you have been doing. Pulled lifters, cam lobes looked okay.... ran with valve cover off, top end was getting oiled. Replaced or reset three loose rocker studs, changed lifters, replaced rockers, valve covers... even went to 20W50 in sheer desperation... but still ticking. Used a dial indicator to check run-out on the #7 exhaust valve and there was a slight deviation on that lobe. Took the adjustment down a touch and it went away. Runs great! GOOD LUCK with your set!
