    Radiator boiling over continually

    Do you have a fan pulling air through the rad and what is the timing set at? Do you have the thermostat installed the correct way? :coffee2:

    BC guys .. Collector Plates

    I have Hagerty insurance too on my Mustang and my Dart. When I first got the Mustang insured about 4 years ago I had to get an appraisal but when the Dart was added two years ago I did not have to get an appraisal and we had an agreed value of $15K for the Dart. All they wanted was detailed...

    Just downloaded windows 10

    Had W10 installed for a day and went back to W7. No video drivers for my card and W10 so the screen was out of wack no matter what settings I used. Maybe I''ll give it another try when I have to upgrade my hardware but for now W7 works fine. I use a free version of Macrium to backup every...

    Trying to set idle and due to dieing when in gear after it gets warm. Need help.

    When you are checking the timing you are removing the vacuum line to the distributor and blocking the line from the engine, right? The three notches you see when checking the timing are actually showing advanced and not retarded? The accelerator pump rod being in either hole won't have any...

    8.8 swap

    You still have to press the bearings on this new carrier so you have to buy new bearings or pull your old ones off and use them. Keep all the shims each side in the same place and you should be good but check the back space before and after to make sure. The pinion depth will stay the same so...

    Using E-body SS springs on a A-body?

    I ran into a problem with the springs on the rear of my Dart with the spring eye being larger but I'm not sure what springs are in it. The eye is 1" ID and I wanted to use the stock A body shackles with the 1/2 inch shackle pins. I used Energy suspension 2.2117G bushings but they sell a few...

    Carburetor Idle Transition Slots

    Am I seeing that video right? When you first start to open the primary the secondaries close further before they start to open. It must be a problem with the linkage on the carb.

    Pulled the Mess that was my Timing Chain....

    Inlet needle and seat in the carb has probably got dirt in it holding it open or the float is stuck. Make sure the battery ground to the body is good for the light problem.

    Problems with Mike440

    There are many ways around a different IP. Anyone could sell themselves something using a different member name and IP and then give themselves good feedback so anyone would think they are legit. :banghead:

    ride height problem

    These are for 74 so I'm not sure how close they are. I got this of the net somewhere but the measurements seem too low but maybe someone else can chime in.

    Ballast Resistor Why?

    In 65 GM Pontiac and Chev used a resistor wire instead of an actual resistor to limit the current through the points. The resistor wire was bypassed for starting only.

    walbro 392 pump

    Make sure you install the low pressure spring in the regulator for the carb setup. Since you may have put a lot of extra fuel into the engine I would check the oil to make sure it's not full of fuel. How are you installing the fuel return line?

    CRTC to mandate pick and pay TV service..

    We'll see how that works. I don't think it will be as good as it sounds. I'd pay a monthy fee to get rid of all the dumb commercials.:banghead:

    EFI fuel tank setup

    Thanks for the ideas. On another forum I found someone that's modified their existing pickup for an in tank pump like this. I'll keep the charcoal canister connected to the fuel tank the way it is and weld a steel AN6 bung into the fuel tank filler tube for a braided return line...

    EFI fuel tank setup

    I thought about drilling the cap but I worry on hard acceleration or on a corner fuel might drain down the side of the car. The Yogis looks interesting too but does it require a new hole cut in the top of the fuel tank?

    EFI fuel tank setup

    Initially I was going to install and external pump to eliminate pulling the existing fuel pickup from the tank but now I'm thinking of installing an internal 255 lph Walbro onto the existing pickup setup. This car might see the drag strip once or twice a year since it's been converted to a 4...

    EFI fuel tank setup

    I'm in the planning stages of installing fuel injection on the 440 engine in my Dart. The plan is to use the charcoal canister line at the fuel tank for the fuel return line. I believe the factory gas cap is sealed. If the factory gas cap is sealed and I'm using more fuel than is being...

    line lock dosnt seem to work ?

    I'm just throwing this out there since you have never used one before and may not be too sure of the operation. You have to push hard on the brake pedal before you operate the line lock. The line lock only holds the pressure in the line it does not apply the brakes. Of course this still would...

    line lock dosnt seem to work ?

    If the light is dull and the solenoid doesn't sound like it's operating properly I would guess either a poor wiring connection on the solenoid wiring or a weak battery. Meter the 12 volt wire on the solenoid while your activating it to make sure the voltage isn't dropping. Have you ever used a...

    Try running a separate ground from the negative battery post to the chassis of the radio. Geo21 beat me to it.

    How to Modify Holley Regulator to Full Bypass

    I`m working on an EFI setup and thought about modifying one of these regulators. Your idea looks like it could work for an EFI setup too if I could find a spring with the appropriate pressure. The only thing I'm not sure of is if the original diaphragm can support the added pressure.
