225 slant six, 72 dart, ok when the engine is cold it runs, accelerates and idles and everything is fine, BUT after the engine warms up its not ok, i can give it a little throttle and its fine all pistons fire and the car accelerates but there is a "sweet spot" on the throttle so that after i...

Thanks guys, i really want to put the shroud back on , i tried to get a 14/13 pound/psi cap but autozone does not sell them! anyway i flushed the system again and now everything seems to work fine

This 225 stays perfectly cool and runs great while im driving it but when i let idle {after its fully warmed up} for more than 5 minutes than it starts to overheat? Then after i park it and turn the car off its goes up maybe 50 to 60 degrees, i just put a new thermostat in it, flushed the...

sound advice! thank you all very much youve been a great help, in a few day ill post results

ok alright thanks guys,

wow your very smart. close but not quite i looked at it today, how could i explain this hmmmm. the top part of my radiator blew apart! the smoke was steam, the pop was the radiator and the cause was what maybe low on coolant or more likely a bad water pump. how can i tell if the water pump is bad?

So i was parked outside of 7-11 last night talking to my buddy with the dart running when outta nowhere there is this loud pop and white smoke starts bellowing out from under the hood! I have a power steering pump that has a leak in it so it was bone dry and i assumed that was the problem, so i...

Ok... ok, you guys are right "do it right" i know i know, it sucks but ohh well. Alright enough bitching on my part, im sorry. any ways yes i called a dealership before i bought the used directional signal switch and received quote for $102 bucks not bad really, only $27 more than i paid for the...

well that blows... but its to be expected. what if i laid new wires from the stop light switch to each brake lamp {bypass the directional hazard switch}, so then i would have separate wires for the turn signals and brake lights but they would both be connected to the light socket? i feel like...

is there anyway to "dismantle" the directional switch to really clean it? really id just need clean the hazard switch but how would get in there to clean it? i forgot to mention that the hazards in the back dont work either, sooo yea

yeah i have that diagram printed out its extremely helpful!

Ok gentlemen thanks very much for all the help! i will attempt to clean my turn signal switch. im not really sure how to do so but that wont stop im on a mission dammit

is it possible for this to be a problem in the directional signal switch? i mean ive got all turn signals working, from my tests with my circuit light the power goes up the column but never comes back downs it would have to be the turn signal switch right? What i dont get is how the hell could...

this 72 dart had a bad directional signal switch so i replaced it with a another used one, i got all signals working but no brake lights. since that i have checked and/or replaced the fuse,brake light lamps, stoplight switch, hazard flasher, ground wires in the trunk. i found some...
