I worked in a Chrysler-Plymouth dealership in the late 1960s. We used lacquer thinner and a stubby acid brush to free up stuck choke and throttle plates. It works well and leaves no residue. Another common sticking point on Slant 6 engines is the exhaust manifold heat control valve {"heat riser"}. Mopar used to make a special solvent that contained graphite to lubricate these valves. They didn't stay unstock for very long, but the engines run better when they are working properly.
Dwell is very important and anybody who messes with points should learn about dwell. It's funny because when I did my Vocational training, it was hardly mentioned. Point Gap was stressed, but Dwell was not. Years later, I decide to tinker with my AMC Gremlin and an old timer mentioned Dwell to me. So, I figured I would look into it. With my point gap set, the car ran fine and had decent power and pickup. However, after checking my Dwell, it was out in left field. Getting the Dwell within spec made a GOOD engine even BETTER. After that, the Gremlin would start instantly, even after sitting for days. One pump to set the choke, turn the key. Acceleration was much more lively and I even noticed my Spark plugs were staying cleaner - longer!! So folks, if you've got an antique car, and you still run points - introduce yourself to a Dwell Meter. YOU need it!
The problem I’ve had is out of three or four dwell meters I’ve acquired, only one worked, and the measurement was clearly off, as when I went in search of a correct dwell setting, the engine ran worse and worse. Indeed, the specified gap measurement is just a ball park number to get the dwell close, but there are so many variables involved, the dwell meter is supposed to get you the rest of the way there. As I have never had a working one, I’ve done the same thing as I do for everything else… just kinda eyeball it, and it’s probably fine enough. But I’d like to find a working meter.
Agree with you about a GOOD engine running BETTER. I had a '70 Cadillac and that 472 ran the best just below the minimum dwell setting. And the front mounted distributor with the adjustment "window" made tuning--while running--much easier.
I’m impressed! We all are reminded of why the slant 6 has the reputation it does, and congratulations to you Jamie for getting fire back in the beast. What ever that wagon wheel thing in the 1920 is, first time I’ve seen it. I seem to be the only person around who doesn’t have a major hate on for the Holley 1920.
Hey, the one on the ‘63 Valiant is actually pretty decent now that I have cleaned it out somewhat. I’ve dealt with a couple other decent ones. But so, so many that were not decent. I’ll start mailing them to you if you’d like. Haha.
Dad had a 64 Valiant with an aluminum slant 6. We weighed it and it had perfect 50-50 weight distribution. One of the best handling cars I have ever driven. Unfortunately the car had constant points and carb issues, so, he sold it before I could make it mine. Luckily he bought a 68 barracuda 318 that I did make mine eventually. Great project! I'll be following this one all the way through!
A friend of my father's was about to get into his 1965 Fury when bang, the torsion bar broke. Good thing it happened in the garage and not on the freeway. I empathize with your constant battle with rain and puddles as I am just on the outskirts of Vancouver Canada. Will look forward to following the Lancer on its journey. Thanks Jamie for another soggy but entertaining video
Craftsman used to sell a small wrench set that were only 3" long and were thin just for those tight spaces and yes also had 11/32" . If I hadn't mentioned it yet a show I watched poured ATF down the carb with plugs pulled until it blew it out, let it set a while and after flushing it by cranking fired right up with fresh plugs.
Sikeston, Mo? That is my wife's late Father's home town... I have been there, multiple times. Oh freaking my... Make sure you go to Lamberts, watch out for flying rolls...
Never gets old watching hemi sixes come back to life. Talk about dedication to the cause!!! Greetings from Perth, Australia where it hasn't rained for 6 months or so.
I think a valve is causing the occasional popping, and I think with more run time it may clean up. I am amazed by the lack of oil smoke… I think this engine is really in ok shape.
westport here young sir. thank you young sir for another show . had a 63 valiant i think it was a sprint. it slid down a guard rail or two at a vary high rate of speed. man that car was fun. short stiff shocks. oh grabbed my brothers thunderbird bucket's. that what happen's when you go on vacation. and leave them in the rain. they dry out in a valiant. thank you again for the humor olympia.
I want one of these lancers bad! In 1963 my dad was stationed in Germany, he wanted a new car upon return to his new duty station he ended up with a 62 lancer slanty with push buttons, he hated it I think they look awesome.
Cool My first "car" was a 66 2 door post with a 225. Had a 55 Fargo as a first vehicle. Loved that little car of all the cool cars I have owned . Wish I still had that one.
Wow, just like my 62 Valiant 2 dr hardtop that sat in a almond/Walnut orchard for 41 years. It has almost no rust but same kind of patina. It was a group home for critters. I think a took about 5 gal. of Walnut and Almond shells out of it. It hand a hole cut in the floor to make room for a 4spd trans. Easy access for citters. The aluminum slant six ran great until the head gasket blew. Now putting together a cast iron short block for it. Hope you've dried out by now.
Yes, the beloved slant 6 ! Some guys would just remove the distributor when replacing the points, just to reduce their frustration factor. I never did though. And the little wagon wheel gizmo under the carb at 16:12 was probably one of the many gas saving items that were advertised in the back of magazines back then. Turbo-charge your engine! Get a 20 per-cent increase in mileage! Amaze your friends! And a fellow I knew removed a broken torsion bar, welded it up, and reinstalled it. It broke as soon as the car was lowered back down on the ground. 😁A new one was only $19 at the dealer at the time.
A legend of a motor We had the R and S models in 🇦🇺 but only in the 4 door sometime they were called the frog 🐸 Valiant here especially in green the first model the R / had a factory 3 speed manual on the floor or you got press button auto .we only had a 1010 delivered in the R Model . Seen slants pulling 13 seconds down the quarter running triple Webers etc in full trim and rego and sitting low all over 👍🏻.
Ah, this is the best Easter present, a 62 Lancer brought back from the dead! So weird they are awesome! And the slant six surprised me. First I thought it would be stuck and it turned over, and then I thought it probably wouldn't run, and it ran. Never underestimate the leaning tower of power. I always thought the 2 doors were the weirdest of the weird - both the hardtop and the sedan had the separate little rear quarter window. But I guess if you are going weird you might as well go all the way.
Ah, the gentle rustling of the tappets. Gotta love a slant, can't kill em with a brick. Love that body shape, better yhan the plucked chooks that followed. Got '59 caddy bullet tail lights for mine. Queensland, Oz, I think.. Nice drop a rain too. 🖖
Better roll the windows up on that beauty, or you might get the floors wet and rusty. ;-) You are my favorite amateur expert and I would recommend you any time. In fact I did just the other day. A guy was working on a '50s Hemi but said he didn't know a thing about them, so I told him about you and your channel. I have no idea if he ever will contact you, but I would recommend you any time.
After spending my entire in Portland and and the Puget Sound area 45 years of it in Snohomish county I must say watching this video at the end I do not miss the weather. I finally live somewhere that gets sun. I love watching these old engines come back to life 👍🏻
Good job Jamie! B oy that one needs some work. Sorry to see the power wagon go. I share the same anniversary date as you, Happy Anniversary to you and your wife!
I have to confess I've never been a big mopar fan. The trucks are ok but the cars other than the muscle cars have always looked pretty lumpy to me. Especially this lancer! However your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I like your style and humor. Keep up the good work, I'm sure you will gain subs quickly!
Thank you! Yeah, lumpy is a good description. Haha. Give me a line up of classic A bodies and these early cars won’t be my first or second choice. Or third. But listen, they’re kind of neat anyway.
I remember seeing a lot of these cars as a boy in Detroit. They were inexpensive and back then, everyone 'bought American. In Detroit, that meant the Big 3. Funny thing, they [Lancers] reminded me of washing machines back then! 🤣
Had a few of the 225's with 3 off the tree, sooner or later the linkage would hang up between 1st and 2nd and you would have to get under and bang the shifter free LOL
Brings back memories as a 62 Lancer was my fisrt start and run way back in '73. It sat in a back yard for 5 years. Mouse house in the water jackts from a missing freeze plug,and over an inch of thick sludge on the rockers and valve train,but it ran!!! I should of left the sludge alone because trying to clean it up caused more harm than good. Pieces went down in the oil pan and kept clogging the pressure relief valve causing that bright red warning light to come on! After my younger brother shot out a rear door window with his bb gun, i gave up on it!
Ya know Jamie l really get a kick out of some of your an ticks very entertaining for me. Don't let the rain stop ya lol. Ya going to get those brakes working though.
@@DeadDodgeGarage sure is! I love my cars from the 60’s and my computers from the 80’s. Hehe. I just picked up a 61 Mercury Comet from Spokane a few weeks ago that I’m starting to bring back to life after a 25 year rest.
“Was” would also be an appropriate descriptor 😅 I know… me too. Loved that truck. But it is what it is. I think I made the right call. I bought the back half of a ‘69 Charger with some of the proceeds…
That thing is impressive. If it was going toward Ontario, Canada, I could be a little more helpful, but I'll comment and watch his video's to support everybody!
My Dad and I changed out a Slant 6 in a 65 Dart Station wagon. It was being driven down the road at 60 to 65 when the engine quit. Dad said that there was a device that would kill the engine if it was not broken in correctly. I am not sure, but I was really mad at my wife's sister for ignoring what I said about breaking it in properly. That car was a really good one.
My friend's slant stopped running. For whatever reason I checked the oil level, and there was none showing on the stock. Four quarts later, I tried starting it, and it hit, to run another ten years. Stout indeed. Great episode.
I can't decide if I like that car from the b pillar back or not. Kinda cool, kinda quirky. Regardless, you gotta love the Exner years. Nothing else like them on the road.
I would have still put oil down the plug holes before even seeing if stuck . Start it on 2 stroke for better lube ⛽️. 👍🏻🇦🇺 even put a heater under the sump to warm the oil is a big help when starting a cold 🥶 motor . 😃. 👍🏻🇦🇺.
Well, I had a 1960 Dodge Dart with a slant six (parts still stacked somewhere 🙄), the Dart was still a rather large car (Cold War Motors showed the bottom half is the same as the Plymouth Fury!)
@mikeystoy, I'm sure Vic will appreciate any and all help making this happen. Even if you were to send parts to one of the channels working on it you'll be helping and acknowledged!

"The Indestructible Slant Six" ... A phrase I have heard a lot in my life...
Chrysler starter motors always make me smile!
I love the sound of those old Chrysler starters

This was a roller coaster of an episode!! It runs and moves!!
I'm 57 this year I enjoy videos from you
She's a runner! Way to set this in motion Jamie! This is going to be a great journey ✌
I’m impressed! We all are reminded of why the slant 6 has the reputation it does, and congratulations to you Jamie for getting fire back in the beast. What ever that wagon wheel thing in the 1920 is, first time I’ve seen it. I seem to be the only person around who doesn’t have a major hate on for the Holley 1920.

People can say what they want, but I think this is a great little car!
My first car was a 62 Lancer 4 door with a 225 slant 6. Thaks for the memories.
Craftsman used to sell a small wrench set that were only 3" long and were thin just for those tight spaces and yes also had 11/32" . If I hadn't mentioned it yet a show I watched poured ATF down the carb with plugs pulled until it blew it out, let it set a while and after flushing it by cranking fired right up with fresh plugs.
One of the most beautiful cars ever made.
I want it!
Hmmm, beautiful ? ok the rear half, the front is a bit odd, I have a 61, don't get me wrong, I like it but I would go with interesting look maybe ;)
Congrats on the 30,000 subs Jamie! Proud to be one.
Thank you!
Also proud to be amongst the other 30000 fans of the channel my friend.
It's alive. That cap and rotor deserve a place on the wall 😂
Agreed. Haha.
She is rough, but she got heart. Great work making the girl purrrrrrrr again.
You could take a picture of the headliner and a band could use it for their album cover how cool is that be
a little hello from France. I really appreciate your videos, your style and your humor. you deserve more subscribers. thank you.
You've made great steps in getting Vic a running/driving car! Thank you. I'm sure there won't be a shortage of things for the next channel!
That patina is slick for sure!
I like this project. I subscribed to all the other channels and I hope I can follow this car on its journey!
You can even goin in! I'm sure Vic would love to have ya
Sikeston, Mo? That is my wife's late Father's home town... I have been there, multiple times. Oh freaking my... Make sure you go to Lamberts, watch out for flying rolls...
All ways go to Lamberts! Throwed rolls rock
Never gets old watching hemi sixes come back to life. Talk about dedication to the cause!!! Greetings from Perth, Australia where it hasn't rained for 6 months or so.
I wish these were anything like your Hemi sixes. But they aren’t… alright, you don’t have to rub it in 😅
Greetings from a neighbor in Lacey! Love those old \6 Mopars! My first car was a '64 Dart that I bought for $250 in 1972 when I was 16!
That slant does sound fairly healthy, maybe sticking valve,stuck rings. Good job.
I think a valve is causing the occasional popping, and I think with more run time it may clean up. I am amazed by the lack of oil smoke… I think this engine is really in ok shape.
When my Mom got her driver's Licence in 1964 my Dad bought my mom her First car a 1962 Tan Colored LANCER!
westport here young sir.
thank you young sir for another show . had a 63 valiant i think it was a sprint. it slid down a guard rail or two at a vary high rate of speed. man that car was fun. short stiff shocks. oh grabbed my brothers thunderbird bucket's. that what happen's when you go on vacation. and leave them in the rain. they dry out in a valiant. thank you again for the humor olympia.
The styling grows on you.
I really enjoyed this one! Great content as always. Sorry I missed the live show today. Catch you next week! Thanks for the video.
What a great collection. The Lancer is perfect for a daily reliable car.
Good.job cool Dodge Plymouth. Nice show cool yard 😃👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Old slants never die they just rest awaiting the apocalypse
Of all the trucks you have that is the one i wouldn't have sold hopefully you got a good price
I got top dollar… I agree, I loved the thing. But I think I made the right call.
I subscribed so I can see if this little guy can make it across the country. Great idea!

Yeah that’s what I hear about those aluminum units… The sun is out today, thankfully. Haha.
Great save looking forward to seeing more content.....and thanks

Yep, if you gonna be a bear, be a Grizzly 😅
I'm new to your channel and to be honest you're already one of my favorites.
Thank you!
I've got a 170 in my '60 Valiant, that Lancer should be a hotrod with the extra 55 Cubic inches.... Thanks Jamie, this was a great episode!
I absolutely love these revival videos...main reason I subd to you a while back
Coolest body lines ever
" It's getting worse , HOW is it getting worse " !?! That's gotta go on a tshirt dude . I frickin love this channel
It was inevitable Jamie, you did it again. Congrats
I have never cheered for an engine to start until today.
I can't wait for my turn. The fact that it runs and should drive, is a huge stepping stone in getting this thing ready to drive to Sikeston!
Ah, the gentle rustling of the tappets.
Gotta love a slant, can't kill em with a brick.
Love that body shape, better yhan the plucked chooks that followed.
Got '59 caddy bullet tail lights for mine. Queensland, Oz, I think..
Nice drop a rain too.
🖖

Yeah that ship has kinda sailed. Haha. Hey, thanks!
All hail the mighty leaning tower of POWER!!!!!!
Secret sauce. I thought I was the only person doing that.
After spending my entire in Portland and and the Puget Sound area 45 years of it in Snohomish county I must say watching this video at the end I do not miss the weather. I finally live somewhere that gets sun. I love watching these old engines come back to life 👍🏻
I’d like to find some sun eventually too, but I also don’t want Arizona heat or California cost. I like it here, but a little drier would be ideal.
You are quite the trooper fighting all that steady rain to get this video finished. I see what they say about Washington state and rain is very true.
The wet side, anyway… we get a lot.
Another kick ass video I used to own one of those things I pulled it out of a junkyard and she ran not for long, but she ran nice video
Your channel is great. Really enjoy watching the stuff that you do.
Tell the keyboard warriors to "bite me". Happy Easter. Thanks for the vid.
Good job Jamie! B oy that one needs some work. Sorry to see the power wagon go. I share the same anniversary date as you, Happy Anniversary to you and your wife!
Happy easterto all yours, lol i was scott's 1000th sub . Mopar all day OK
😂😂😂 you're having a MUCH wetter spring than I am in Wrangell, Alaska 😂😂😂
Prelube, you are correct to the keyboard warriors! Great video as always!
Love that body style
I have to confess I've never been a big mopar fan. The trucks are ok but the cars other than the muscle cars have always looked pretty lumpy to me. Especially this lancer! However your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I like your style and humor. Keep up the good work,
I'm sure you will gain subs quickly!
Thank you! Yeah, lumpy is a good description. Haha. Give me a line up of classic A bodies and these early cars won’t be my first or second choice. Or third. But listen, they’re kind of neat anyway.
Love your content and humour dude First time watcher now Subscribed.
I love the old A bodies. I think the Lancer was the sexiest one of the bunches until the Barracuda showed up!
The 62 Lancers are so cool
Sorry but I straight up belly Laughed when the gas shower happend......best channel ever!!!!!
I'm definitely looking forward to the next video and the challenge!
I remember seeing a lot of these cars as a boy in Detroit. They were inexpensive and back then, everyone 'bought American. In Detroit, that meant the Big 3. Funny thing, they [Lancers] reminded me of washing machines back then! 🤣
Now remember when you put new points in ALWAYS replace the condenser
Had a few of the 225's with 3 off the tree, sooner or later the linkage would hang up between 1st and 2nd and you would have to get under and bang the shifter free LOL
Oh yeah. Mine was a 318 3 on the tree. It was so fun to drive, until you tried to bang second… it would always bind up like that. Good times.
Brings back memories as a 62 Lancer was my fisrt start and run way back in '73. It sat in a back yard for 5 years. Mouse house in the water jackts from a missing freeze plug,and over an inch of thick sludge on the rockers and valve train,but it ran!!! I should of left the sludge alone because trying to clean it up caused more harm than good. Pieces went down in the oil pan and kept clogging the pressure relief valve causing that bright red warning light to come on! After my younger brother shot out a rear door window with his bb gun, i gave up on it!
Yeah… you’ll have that with the horrible sludge mess. And, ouch!
Ya know Jamie l really get a kick out of some of your an ticks very entertaining for me. Don't let the rain stop ya lol. Ya going to get those brakes working though.
very cool car patina and all ......
You and Vic are a couple of my favorite channels. I'll be lucky enough to see this car in person. I might be forced to turn wrenches on it. Ugh.
😅 well, good luck with that! Haha. Thanks.
Olympia Washington. Hello from Sultan Washington.
Woah, is that a Mac SE? Hey!
@@DeadDodgeGarage sure is! I love my cars from the 60’s and my computers from the 80’s. Hehe. I just picked up a 61 Mercury Comet from Spokane a few weeks ago that I’m starting to bring back to life after a 25 year rest.
I remember these being called and only saw them as the "Plymouth Valiant".
I think the Lancer was built in much smaller numbers. I like the look of the front end more. But either is neat.
I actually like the body style, always have. Sad to see the old Power Wagon leave :-( The replacement 'is' a lovely shade of green :-)
“Was” would also be an appropriate descriptor 😅 I know… me too. Loved that truck. But it is what it is. I think I made the right call. I bought the back half of a ‘69 Charger with some of the proceeds…
In Australia they were called Chrysler Valiants, 4 door only, the R and S series, they sold as many as the could get, from Canada I think.
That thing is impressive. If it was going toward Ontario, Canada, I could be a little more helpful, but I'll comment and watch his video's to support everybody!
Being a early A body owner I love it.But it really isn't easy on the eyes lol.

Great videos. Now I'm late for supper trying to get this in before we eat. Thank You.
Alright, that’s my bad 😅 thanks!
I’m in love with! So many, many curves!🥰
Slant six: that is all...
Thank you very much for watching.
Really like your approach
I tend to do everything your doing 👏👏👏
love the lancer. i have the australian version the 1962 chrysler valiant here at home in newzealand very rare here . cheers another great vidya
I didn't pre lube my V10 and it was parked for 15 years and there was no mouse house in the radiator so that made things a whole lot easier 🤠
Jealous. Lol.
Nice work sounds pretty good
It's Alive !
Small and far away. Father Ted low key funny
You are some crazy guy
Probably
Well, I had a 1960 Dodge Dart with a slant six (parts still stacked somewhere 🙄), the Dart was still a rather large car (Cold War Motors showed the bottom half is the same as the Plymouth Fury!)
Jamie, I have a pair of hinges, and a few other parts from my 61
Thank you so much for being willing to contribute!
@mikeystoy, I'm sure Vic will appreciate any and all help making this happen. Even if you were to send parts to one of the channels working on it you'll be helping and acknowledged!
