1962 Lancer GT. ~ Bea

You crack me up! :laughing:

Sorry...I misunderstood and will do it right next time. :flower:

It was a 16 oz. bottle of Sea Foam - 1st used 1/4 in the carburetor (slowly) at high idle, then 1/2 in the Oil/Valve Cover, then 1/4 in the gas tank. Very minimal smoke.

Tried the Sea Foam this morning and I really didn't have much smoke coming out like all the videos I've watched...nothing like it at all...very minimal smoke, not sure if that's a good or bad thing? Gonna chage the oil after about 100 miles and try it again. Next up...Gas Tank Replacement...

Whew...got the broken bolt out, but not without having to take the manifolds apart...again! Everything went back together great and she's ready to roll! BTW...idling very well & the thermostat is indicating correctly now. Adding the Seafoam today or tomorrow and go from there. Thanks once...

I haven't taken it out yet and /6Dan gave me a cross-reference # from Dorman to use. My hubby says he will be able to get out the stud. ~ Thanks Guys!

Does anyone happen to have an extra manifold stud that will fit the '62 Lancer - 225 /6? My son was helping me and he over-torqued the nut & broke one of the upper manifold studs. Mopar # 2121585...I've been calling around...no luck yet. OMG! :help:

OMG...I want it! Beautiful!!!

Nope...not that kinda gal! But, here's where I got my inspiration from and I will be taking care of Bea, just like she takes care of her car! YouTube - 557,000 Miles and Counting (She's 90; Her Car's 45; Both Are Still On The Road) p.s. just ignore the news people at the...

Yes...I'm very thankful Damsel! (got the Damsel part from CudaChick & me likes it!) Now, I'm moving on to the Valve Cover & Blow Back! I'll be working on that today. Let's see what will I need? Just need a little :coffee2: + :rock: = :thumbup: Get'r Dun!

Ok...I changed it back...really don't care what some may think...I'm having fun! :grin:

Sorry for the late reply...Yes, the water pump was replaced on 04/18/10 due to leaking. I will double check on how it was installed and the inpeller issue.

Just want to say thank you ALL for the advice and help...it is much appreciated & I think you ALL are great!

Well, I just got back from the "Secret Mechanics" place & WOW...what a place! It was a great experience and learned a few things in the process! He took a look at Bea and did some adjusting on the idle, replaced the stove, car running just fine, no overheating, just need to have it scoped for...

Hey Bruceo2011 & C130Chief! Update onthis thread....... I went to the radiator shop and the old radiator is in great working condition & no signs of rust. Performed all the standard tests, pressure, looked for holes...nothing. The guy did a backflush and a couple of things were replaced...

Thanks for the advice...bought one & it will be here this week! Yes, Dan & I have twin cars...crazy, huh? Maybe we can photoshop them together...that would be cool.

I don't have a glass filter...I have the plastic one only. Thanks :-D

The radiator shop did offered to recore/replace the heater core...just doing the bypass...until I can get back in there. I saved all of the original hoses, but used a different hose on for the bypass. All worked out great! I was intouch with my "secret" mechanic...LOL...but I could not go...

ok...there's no pee in my cheerio's...it's all good! I do not have this one...just was looking. Is there a specific one you recommend? (not plastic, not glass(completely understand that) or maybe the $4.00 metal ones. I didn't realize there were so many options. :-D

Ok Patch...here it is! It's soooooo pretty!

I am a thankful girl! :-D

nothingbutdarts...Feb 14th will be 1 year I have had Bea....have done a lot of other work at repair shops...now this is going on.

Went to the radiator shop today and the old radiator is in great working condition & no signs of rust. Performed all the standard tests, pressure, looked for holes...nothing. The guy did a backflush and a couple of things were replaced: the the radiator cap (missing rubber seal) and the Temp...

/6Dan went over this with me earlier...see below: Not boiling over at all The temp reading stays on the high end of the 3rd hash mark and a little higher...so, are you saying this would be normal after 2 or 3 miles down the road? C |__|_____|__|_|H...

We'll do! :-D

Man...I am a happy girl! All of this help is overwhelming and so much appreciated! Guess what? I have a retired Chrysler mechanic (in Lakeland!!!) that has replied to my distress! Since, it was a PM, I won't reveal his name just yet! You know who you are...THANK YOU! & Thank all of you, too!
