Finally got out to hanger today and messed with the carb for a while. It wasn't where the carb mounts to the intake that was loose but where the...
as soon as it warms up a little I will try spraying a little carb cleaner around the base and see if it speeds up. The only thing between the carb...
Checked the treads and had plenty left. checked top of intake with straight edge and it looks fine bottom of carb looks fine. Nothing looks warped...
that's what I thought so I checked the vacuum line and finally just blocked it off. Is it possible to suck air between the carb and intake? I have...
I've gone and done it now. I have a 67 250 in my 51 pickup and just had the carb rebuilt. Put it on and started it up and have to keep it idled up...
YEE HAW I think I may have solved the mystery.I took off the fan and switched the blade over,now it's seems to run a lot cooler. Would have been a...
thanks, but I need to find one a little closer to Dallas,Tx.
The reason it is pushing instead of sucking is there is not enough room between the water pump and the radiator for the fan. The barn fan sits...
no I don't have a shroud for it but the electric fan is almost as wide as the radiator so I doubt a shroud would do much good.
did that plus While I had the head off (checking head gasket) I checked looking down in the block and flushing it out same with the head,looked...
already did the acid thing,only thing I did different was take the radiator out and lay it flat then fill it full of straight phosphoric acid and...

I guess the next thing to do is the boat test. I think I uderstand this right. Drive it into the lake, if it sinks problem solved,if it floats I...
already pulled the electric fan and checked the cooling, you don't want to lay your hand on it about the top third, the bottom two thirds gets a...
it's an electrial fan,pusher in the front of radiator with thermostat set at 190. I even took it off thinking it might be blocking the air.l put...
yep. first thing i checked. stuck a meat thermometer in the radiator to verify temp.
I shut it down at about 210 degrees. only takes about 15 minutes ( I usually get about a cigarette smoked till it's time to kill it). once the...
yep. did that. I checked with the engine builder first and he told me they did the vat thing. since I had the head off I did the straight acid...
Hi Yall I have a newly rebuilt 250 in a 51 pickup. From startup to 200 degrees takes about 15 minutes on a good day. So far I have changed the...
does anyone have a diagram of what wire or cable comes through what hole in the firewall? thanks
