Question and Answer / Re: 1983 AMC Eagle Wagon Heati...

Last post by krimmth - March 27, 2025, 05:09:19 AM

I think I have found the problem. The heater cable clip is slipping through. That is, when I move the lever from cool to cold and the door shut more firmly pressing against the housing. When I then move it back to warm and back to cool, a gap remains open in the door.

I do not know if this clip is still available. I will put a cable clamp in front of the clip and see if that works.

I made a fan shroud for the electric fans I'm putting on Eagle Eyes and I don't think it turned out too bad.

Vangremlin,

That's great news. I'm glad you were able to get in touch. I'd appreciate it if you could give him my email and let him know I'm interested in buying in bulk. [email protected]

Just a quick update, I did get a response from this vendor, he wanted to know specifically which parts we were interested in, so I told him all of the Eagle parts, and asked about pricing.  If I remember correctly from the last go around, the prices weren't bad, but shipping was pretty expensive.  Hopefully the Eagle parts are still available.

Fuel Systems. / Re: Electric fuel pump

I did a comparable setup to Vangremlin.  I went just a little further forward on the rail, mounting the pump adjacent to the front leaf spring mount.  I sourced rubber isolator mounts after initially being very displeased with the noise/vibration from the pump resonating loudly through the unibody.  Instead of using the Holley-Sniper supplied fuel hose for the bulk of the supply line to the engine bay, I made my own hard line out of NiCopp brake line and ran it all the way forward.  I used the factory supply hard line as the return line. 

I used this pump setup for the very same reasons as others have stated; I was not keen on chopping into my tank.
 I do not recall there being enough room at the top of the tank between it and the trunk floor anyway for all the fittings, etc. for an in-tank pump, without artificially spacing the tank downward.

Here is a picture of the fuel pump in my Kammback, looking over the axle from the rear.  It's kind of mounted on the front part of the wheel well.  Let me know if you have questions or need another picture.

Ok, I am going to replace headlight switch as a last effort to fix electrical issue. Research says its a common failure item.
