If they're new and clean, you're good. White or blue-tinted smoke from the exhaust?

hahaha thanks john, ive figured out a similar way to do it with a compression tester. i rotate the fan to bring up pressure as i bring the piston up to top dead center then hold it to see if it bleeds out. is that basically the same thing? Basically, sorta....You'll probably will be able to get a g...

i havent done a compression test yet, but its like its just spraying out. it will get up to the cap on the tube and then spray out almost like a spray bottle. i just did an oil change and put in a higher quality oil so ill see what happens. im also picking up a new pcv valve. ive got plenty of brea...

Try an industrial supplier of bolt . Buy a box of 100 may be the cheapest way. Possibly get Stainless from them and polish yourself while watching reality shows. :thinking Like I said Ive already been to 4-5 suppliers and none of them have them. I asked one of the Dodge truck parts places online wh...

PVC on one valve cover to carb, breather on the other valve cover without vacuum, open. Not saying that's your problem, is it like puking out oil or just dribbling down the tube?

Remember, the short shoe (primary shoe) goes to the front of the vehicle.

I have a heavy canvas one, don't think it's stock as the radiator has been replaced with a later model radiator. It's pop riveted on.

I've got it up and running again with new tires, battery, u-joints and other misc parts still to come. Currently it's really cleaning up. I've still got some time to put into finishing it before I put it on the market. However, I noticed after I had it running for a while it wouldn't shut off easil...

NEED TO KNOW THE LINES THAT GO TO THE PROPORTIONING VALVE. I HAVE A 225 L6 2WD MANUAL. PICTURES WILL HELP TREMENDOUSLY!!!! I HAVE THE REPAIR MANUAL BUT DOES NOT READ ACCURATELY TO THE TRUCK. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT LINES AND WHERE THEY GO INTO THE PROPORTIONING VALVE. I DO NOT KNOW WHERE THE REAR ONE GO...

Remember the short shoe (primary shoe) goes on the forward side (front of truck) on the backing plate.

Were they reverse thread on the left side?

I've never seen that(not much experience with Mopar trucks though), but the picture doesn't lie, well it could if was photoshopped.

Might want to check your motor mounts too....I've had the same happen to me with an old Dart.

The voltmeter sense line is connected to +12V switched power the run circuit and is independant of the gauge regulator. So I think your gauge regulator is bad as well as something with your charging system. First pass I would just get a parts store to test the system in the truck or the alternator ...

Did you check to see if the springs on the distributor weights are not broken or came off their pegs?

Well its doing it again!!! bout two months ago my point went out on me and the truck started having all the symptoms.... popping thru the carb, studdering, surging, missing and what felt like i was running on 3cylinders sometimes. So i replaced the points again(autozone brand) and ive kept an extra...
