71 pinto doors auto lock ?

<< < (2/2)

C. M. Wolf:
It sounds as though the "Spring Tensioner"(I'm not sure of it's actual name), that holds the Door Locking mech either in the unlocked or locked positions may be worn/broken/missing. So that when shutting the doors, the door locks fall into the lock position as though 'Automatically' I don't know for sure, it would be odd for all doors to do this in the same vehicle if it wasn't made to do on purpose.

It’s just weird that both sides do it. I’ll take some pics and see if I can post them.
