Re: [FWDLK] Help - '56 Plymouth Owners



On mine the top one is the Amp light so I am assuming the bottom is oil.  I will check my manuals tonight.

Hi all,
Could someone re-assure me.  I have neither an owner's manual or a shop manual specific to the '56. While driving it this afternoon one of the idiot lights came on while the car was stopped at a traffic light with the tranmission engaged.  The lights are stacked and it was the bottom one that lit up.  I hope that this is the generator warning light, as the last time I had this experience it was with an oil pressure light on my '66 Fury (318).  Although the light would go off with an increase in revs, the diagnosis that time was that I had spun a bearing.  Today the light went out as soon as I put the transmission in neutral (RPMs picked up).  If it's the oil pressure light I'm going to need to increase my dossage of Prozac!  All of this is happening while I am ge! tting ready to spring for an alternator for my daily driver after many other recent expensive repairs.

If the generator on the Plymouth is what's causing the idiot light to come on (only after driving for a while I might add), would anyone recommend converting to an alternator for that car? 

Thanks in advance for your generous advice.
