Grampa had a 67 ambassador, thanks again Nick!

My late Dad had a 1965 Rambler 660 clasic for many years. It was the car I learned how to drive in.

I traveled from Tucson, Arizona to Ypsilanti, Michigan with my family in 1967 in a 1964 Rambler station wagon. I love Ramblers and AMC!

Fantastic Rambler, it was built to be a basic, dependable, decent quality, presentable, and functional family car. And it still is a beautiful car in great condition for a 1964 car.

Those old cars were as high tech as a hammer, but they got you down the road and were so simple you could fix just about anything alongside the road. Remember using a folded matchbook cover as a feeler gage to set the points on an old Chevy in a Safeway parking lot. Checked it with my dwell meter when I got home...got really close.

I owned a 1964 Rambler Classic 770 with a 287 V8. Yes that's 287. I always had a hell of a time getting parts, the auto parts stores wouldn't believe that a 287ci engine existed! Frickin good motor, 240,000 miles before it died for the final time.

Dan Forbess: The Classic with the 327 cubic inch V8 would be like an almost hot rod with either a 2 barrel or 4 barrel carburetor.

My first car was a '64 Rambler American 440, red inside and out. It was a hand-me-down from my grandmother. I started driving it in '74 with only 16k on the clock. It was crude even by 1970s standards but built like a tank. My brother was still driving it in the mid 80s.

Another great show. Thanks Nick.

It really is true that most shops today don't know breaker points or carbs. We have had stuff come in that drove to another shop and had to get towed to our shop because the car wouldn't start after the tune up. They didn't teach this stuff when I went through 2 years of trade school to become a mechanic. I learned it on the family farm by keeping older equipment running. My boss knows this stuff well too, so we get to work on some pretty nice (and a few ugly) older cars when we aren't working on modern stuff. Helps keep things fun and interesting.

Love the 64 Rambler, had one in mid 70's ,

Hey Nick, it was so good to see you get that Rambler Classic started. I had a '63 Classic 550 Wagon with the same engine and it ran so smoothly that I couldn't even feel any vibration at idle because of the 7 main bearings. It rode just like an expensive touring sedan. I loved it!

Was driving a 68 VW bug across the us in 1976 and it just stopped in the middle of the night. I had only a screwdriver. I didn't know what was wrong so i pulled off distibiter cap and points had come loose and closed. I used a book of matches and reset them with it. Away i went. Lucked out that night.

Nice old Rambler! Glad to see it got worked on by someone who knows these old cars. This has the Borg Warner Flashomatic transmission. The first Drive position "D2" starts in second gear and shifts to third. It was meant for starting on slippery surfaces. The second position "D1" starts in first and shifts up to second and then third. This is the normal drive range to use. A lot of people don't know that today as it is a non-intuitive design and always use "D2" since it is the first drive position and end up starting in second gear all the time. A lot of '58 - '66 Ford/Mercury/Lincoln cars have this shift quadrant as well (and I think Studebakers too). In the mid '60s Fords, "D2" was a small white dot and "D1" was a larger green dot. On those, "white means snow and green means go"!

I am old enough to remember when cars had a carburetor for air fuel delivery to the engine. Also for the ignition system they had a simple points, condenser and distributor ignition system. This video brings back memories of these old style systems that came before the days of electronically controlled fuel injection systems and electronically controlled ignition systems with no distributor, instead most cars today have an ignition coil on top each spark plug. A lot of young people have never seen these old systems.

I remember back in 1970..I was 14 at the time. My oldest brother (R.I.P. Tommy :-/) came home with a brand new Plymouth Barracuda "Gran Coupe" 383c.i./335h.p. Hurst pistol grip 4spd and it had a duel points distributor. in 1973 when I was 17 the motor dropped a valve and put a rod threw the block. He offered to sell it to me for $750 but MOM said NO..with a new motor it would be too fast for me lol. Wish I had that car today!!

These cars had coils at all 4 corners. The rear axle was bolted to the 'torque tube', a solid tube enclosing the driveshaft & that was also bolted to the transmission. Quelled engine noise & vibration, carried engine torque to the rear axle (& not through the car body and springs), carried the driving torque and force of the rear wheels to the front of the car, through the engine and transmission mounts. I owned a similar '66. Could barely hear or feel the big 6 running when it was idling.

no joke about most automotive techs having no idea about the carb and breaker points cars. I worked at a Ford dealer years ago and when we got a old Ford or other make with carburetor and with or without breaker points to be brought into the shop, the car porters could not even start them and cranked the engine until the battery was dead, I would go out with a jump box and start it right up. if a porter, particularly the guy that attempted to start the engine would be blown away over it. he would ask me how I got it started so fast, I would tell them about the Carburetor and you have to pump the pedal a bit then feather the throttle to keep it running if it was a cold engine with a poorly set up choke. I started my automotive career in 1986 when there were still lots of old school cars with points and carburetors on them. it is sadly a lost art working on these! the old cars were also my favorites to work on!

I cant vouch for the 64 but the 63 Rambler Classic is the stoutest built automobile ive ever tried to kill. Best friend scored his grandmothers MINT low mile, garaged example when he was 15 years old. Did I mention it was PINK? Did I mention were a bunch of farm kids with several years experience destroying cast off cars around the farm? The stupidity that car shrugged off impressed me. It was built like a tank.

Don't forget the condenser

@Deputybull

6 жыл бұрын

I had someone charge up a condenser and hand it to me once. It is a lesson I won't ever forget.

My first car: 64 Rambler Classic 550, straight 6, 3 on the tree. Tore up 3 shift tubes power shifting. Blew up the muffler once trying to make it backfire. Oh, I've filed several sets of points in my day.

Sometimes starting problems on old Ramblers was due to the Corporate way of buying parts from different OEM manufacturers, like Delco and Ford Motorcraft. Because of mix-ups, a Rambler could be running 12 volts to the coil all the time, due to whether the ballast resistor was present or not. Smart Rambler owners would keep a spare, dry coil in the glove box, and on rainy days the car would need the spare coil swapped in to be able to start. I've owned a few, from 1958 to 1965.

I remember when all you needed was a screwdriver, channel locks hammer and a test light . I love your videos.

Just did a few videos on points, condensers, coils and exactly how they work (not the common myths about how they work) and how to diagnose them, with or without old tune scope. That rambler may have a dodgy condenser, they deteriorate with age like the dialectic properties of coils and once the farad rating drops they will be out of tune with the inductance of the coil primary and secondary and will show a pitting to one side indicating the polarity of the oscillation bias. Likewise a real bad condenser can compromise a set of points in under a minute of running and reduce coil output too, sometimes causing idle so bad it shakes the carb enough to upset the float and cause severe flooding at idle. Seen it a few times, young mechanics in a hurry do a rebuild on carb to fix flooding thinking its the carb causing poor idle due to flooding. Replace points and bad condenser kills the new points in under 30 seconds and its rough idle followed by carb flooding again. Fit new points AND new condenser, fixed for good.

@boggy7665

Thanks. Didn't know why I was having to file the points so often. Quibble: "Dielectric"- an insulator with capacitive qualities, iirc. "Dialectic" - about subculture or local language, or something like that.

On a damp morning moisture can accumulate inside the distributor cap and cause misfire as well ! ( a file and a paper towel was handy in the glovebox ) ! Thank You Nick !

Good old points. Always kept a set in my 66 Ford Falcon with a screwdriver and match book.

9:52 to 10:05. Nick does improv comedy. "No blinds spots on these cars. Everywhere you look all you see is windows".

LOL! I'm from the old school Nick...I understand points...heck I thought back in the day I was the MAN because I got the first Mallory dual point distributer in my high school hot rod group...and plunked into my 69 Chevelle 396...I think now looking back that thing was probably more valuable than the car! But my Dad and I fixed her up and got her sweet looking and running..wish I still had that one! LOL!

I bought a 77 fj40 that had 2800 dollars of recent repair receipts in the glove box. It was hard to start and if you did not keep the choke pulled out a bit(to get fast idle) it would die at idle. All the manuals came with it. I looked in the manual and found my land cruiser could have come with 3 different ignitions. Breaker point, Breaker point with spark pack, or Breaker point with magnetic impulse distributor. If it was the last it would have screws holding down the distributor cap. I looked and I had spring clips holding down the cap and a spark pack. Obviously I had number 2. I checked the receipts. They had changed everything except points. You can guess it. The original points were still there and the rubbing block had worn down so they barely opened. A nice new set of toyota points set to 16 thousandths/cam cleaned/lubed and varooom it ran great ever after.

Near 400 comments to this date [5-19-18]...and I have to say about this Rambler product: My parents had three - 1959, 1964, and 1966. They were the "Classics" series, I think. At least the last one was. Of the three, my favorite was the '64, though I had the somewhat experience of getting my "learner's license" with the '66 model. These models didn't have power anything...just an underpowered six cylinder. In that '66, I did have two things at least memorible with them: My very first car date in June, 1968, and my being the driver of my junior-senior prom, which wasn't that good of an evening for that girl and me. Oh well...after several years with that last Rambler, the folks finally took my advice- "Get a GM car", which they did: 1970 Olds Delta 88. Boy! That was a very good car! From literally then on till 1989, it was Oldsmobiles.

All Rambler engines were 100% internally balanced, that's why they just ran and ran forever!

Fantastic! If you all think points are strange, a point file would even be stranger. Have one myself in a SK Wayne tune up socket set I inherited from my late Dad. Used the file to get my '66 Skylark running after setting for years. Love the old school, that's why these videos rock. Thank you Nick.

In 1972 my next door neighbor was a GM service mechanic- he showed me how to set points with a dwell meter. you do it that way and the car will start with just a bump on the switch. My next trick was dual points on my 1970 Dart 340. I still own my dell meter

This kind of gets me in the heart. My grandfather when he was old had little money. We took him out to look at new and used cars; not expensive in the early 60s. He decided they were too much money. About a month later there was an old stove bolt white 1959 Rambler American super bare bones 2 door coupe siting in is driveway. I don't know were he found it, probably from a nice friend. I remember he paid about $300. I remember sitting in the car, as a young man and feeling sorry for grandpa.

Nick is the man when it comes to old iron. I'm 75 years old, and once apon a time I was the guy friends came to about fixing "non computer equipped" cars. The 64 AMC, and fileing off its points really took me back to an older guy that taught me that trick. Nick rocks!

Nick saves the day again, and with no money in parts! It's scary how hard it is to get points, condensors and even caps and rotors for the original ignitions. When I worked in a performance parts shop we would get all that stuff from Accel over 10 years ago, no problem. Since Holley bought them, they stopped production on alot of the old part numbers for points. Thankfully Pertronix has electronic conversions for most distributors.

My dad bought a 58 Rambler four door with the manual transmission and overdrive. You could go down the road at 55, engage that overdrive and the engine was almost idling. It could get 30 mpg with four of us in it.

I did a lot of those in the 70s and 80s.Good show

I remember at the age of 14, setting under the hood of a 1958 Oldsmobile changing points , rotor, & condenser . I was taught starting at age of 12 how to work on cars by my grandfather and his three sons, my uncles to fix it or walk I had very good mentors

AMC's were very rare here in NC. At least they were where i grew up. A few Gremlins and Hornets and Matadors but that was about it. And they were all used. I don't even remember where a dealership was.

Nick . If they were all hemi's. Life would be boring. That's what makes it fun..

I used to see a lot of Ramblers when I was a kid. My Grandparents even had a 66 station wagon. They babied that thing and always kept it in the garage.

Love this Rambler. I had a 63 550 and it was a great car.

I've replaced a lot of points in the past. I have used a piece of the cardboard box the points came in to gap the points. It was a V-8 and the gap was 0.016". A 6 had a gap of 0.020", so I just made is a loose fit on the cardboard. My friend could gap the points just by looking at them. I used a dwell meter to check the dwell angle, and it read 32 degrees. Factory spec was 30 degree. Fantastic! Just looking at the points!!

Had a 64 Classic 660 in the early to mid 70s. But it had a 287 V8 and a three speed. Biggest problem was the brakes, which were unboosted drums. If you hit the brakes at anything over 80mph (and it would do 110 or so) they faded away before you got to 70. But reliability wise, it was brilliant. It just went and went and went.

God bless old cots that know their stuff. I have a stock 1966 Rambler American 440 and i do all the work my self. YES that includes changing points,setting the timing and rebuilding the carb. ;)
