340 Overheat / Radiator Geyser

[junkyardhero]

But when this situation is resolved 8 years from now and I create the temporary garage, how many of their descendants will still be around, crawling in my effing ears while STILL trying to get this POS Duster on the road???

that's like, future mitch's problem, man.

but if you're looking toward problem solving down the line, both wasps and spiders are natural consumers of ladybugs. which, gets me to thinking... if you want a right now solution to your squatter problem, wasps or spiders might be the answer you're looking for.

or, something along the lines of por que no los dos?

A few boxes of crickets are enough to drive someone crazy as well.

There was an extreme sense of success and satisfaction I have seldom achieved anytime else, in smashing out the windows as the squatters could only watch, mouths hung open.
It was worth every penny for new modern windows .

Did you buy a new water pump?
are the outlets in the right place?

i.e do you have a 318 340 one or do you have a magnum style one which is designed to turn the other way due to the different belt route on those later motors.
if its running the wrong way it won't work, but your symptoms would fit with hot radiator but little movement of coolant until switch off, and it boils in the head....

if it is the same pump it always had...this is a moot point

explosions/geysers

switch off coolant boils faulty stat pops open
or
switch off coolant boils and well it all comes out
