Hi all, another cry for help here... I'm so frustrated and upset. I decided to bleed the brakes and made everything worse... 1970 Coronet DRUM/DRUM Here's what happened so far: -I started bleeding the brakes and it stopped bleeding. I decided to try an air suction and managed to suck some old...

I snapped the bolt when removing the arm and when I was ordering a new pair it was showing me 2 options? +- 2 1/4 OR +- 1.05 Since they're cheap I ordered one of each so I can have it ASAP and research about it later, but which one is the right one for a 1970 Coronet 440 318? Unless they...

I'm replacing all the front suspension joints, got everything from Rockauto but they don't have the pitman arm. I've been trying to find elsewhere but now I'm not sure what to buy. I keep seeing different sizes, etc, wrong info in the forums... So please HELP, which one do I need? I'm...

I remember seeing this discussion before and now I had to remove the dash... should I just plug the black/red together and bypass the gauge? Car was on fire once, don't want it to happen again. :) Thanks.

Hi, this is the first car with AC I got, I'm trying to learn about it but in the meantime... what should go in there? All my 318s had that port sealed. The hose connected to it is going to the vaccum (under battery) but what else should be connected there? Or just use a blank plug? Thanks.

Hi all, I bought this car yesterday and the poor thing is dragging her bottom. I'm considering ordering a new set of spring leaf from ROCKAUTO, and it offers me 2 options, as picture: Question is, what's the difference? - Why the top one (DAYTON 78539) states EXCEPT 440? (I might put a 440...

Hi all, got this car with this mystery carburetor (no names, numbers, stamps..) and the kickdown has been ignored and it's loose. Would this bracket solve the problem? Thank you.

Hi all. I just got this 1970 Coronet 440. Drove her home yesterday making a few stops, all good. Today I tried to fire her up and nothing. She did try to start a couple of times but nothing. I checked spark, and it's not there. It's the original ignition system, SINGLE WIRE distributor. NO...

Hi all, the time has come to let my GTX go. If I could get opinions on the value, that'd be great. The car is in the UK but please evaluate it as if it was in the US since I can ship it. Here's how I'm planning the AD with all the info, and some pictures. The only thing that's not original is...

Hi all, I have this fender tag I would like to be decoded. I used this LINK (stockmopar.com) but the results are a bit inconsistent like "E-85 = paint code 440-4 barrel?" I know the car is a 318, just want to double check with the experts which codes could be wrong. Thank you,.

My 440+6 has this horrible drone, drives me mad, it goes straight into my brains!!! It happens at lower RPM (can't say when since I don't have a tachometer) but driving around 30/40mph. I can certainly say it's not the exhaust since I snapped mufflers, drove with open header and even replaced...

What could have cause this? 440 727 I found out the kickdown was disconnected, no idea for how long. Thank you.

Right, I'll try to cover ad much as I can: Tested fuel gauge straight to negative, it works fine going all the way up. There is a dedicated ground from chassi to fuel sender unit to make sure it has good ground. Sender if giving me the right range, 10 (or so) on full, 75 (well, 77) on...

Hi all, I thought my engine had a tapping sound and decided to give a go on the lifters. I removed all them, opened, cleaned, reassembled and submerged in oil and force it up and down to load it. Put it back and sounded louder. Improved by the time I was driving but I don't think it made any...

Hi all just to check options here, I have a 440 6 barrel and the first start of the day can be painful sometimes. There's this ritual: Crank for about 10 sec. Press pedal to the floor (choke) and release crank for another 10 seconds... and it starts! ....well... usually... sometimes it won't...

Hi all. I'm trying to run the car a bit better, it's way too rich. The exhaust keeps spitting black sludge all the time, cold or hot, no stop. I've been playing with timing and a vacuum gauge, managed to get a better result and way better response but I know that's not the way. Also the idle...

Loud noise coming from the engine. Though about lifters at first but it's quite loud under the engine also. Tried a flush and oil change but nothing. I'm very concerned now. It's a 440 6 pack. If driving the noise seems to ease a bit but it the rpm goes up it gets much worse. I tried to make a...

Quick and simple question... I removed the dash and noticed the amp is not in use. Instead both wires were together in one of the bolts from the amp. (Can't remember which one now) but the question is: - Do they need to be attached to the amp/dash (if so any bolt or any specific?) or can I just...

Hi all, I would like some advice on spark plugs. A is from a 440 6 pack, is that too rich? And B is from a 318 4 barrel, is that too lean? Thank you a lot.

Sorry about the very silly question, but that's my fist big block and I still have loads to learn about it. Unfortunately with the winter coming and lack of daylight It will take a long time until I can spend some time knowing the engine, etc. Anyway... the car takes way too long to start...
