Guys! You are the best. Finally found it! It was indeed a vacuum leak at the brake booster...

Yes I do. I have not tried that yet... next on my list.

Sure sounds like it, I'll triple-check

1972 Dodge Charger. 318 w/ 4bbl avs2 and performer manifold. Engine rebuilt 12k miles ago with KB167 pistons and 302 heads, mild 340ish cam. It has been running perfect until now. Now it has a very rough idle that I have not been able to pin down. It is fine at highway speeds and over 20-25 MPH...

I agree with this. I had scary gas tank implosions (bang) and gas pouring out the filler neck on my '72 on hot days just because the prior owner dickwad capped the vent line and removed the charcoal canister. The 1972 Chrysler-designed charcoal canister/expansion tank configuration was (a...

Hi guys and gals, long shot I know. Looking for my first Charger back in 77 or and was so a 69 Charger, Gold, black vinyl roof, black interior, 383 2bbl. Bought and sold in the late 70's in NW Ohio. I lived in Bowling Green.

I've noticed a place to look is on the front frame rails just below and behind where the upper control arm is. Particularly the rear mounting. Down on the frame rail you'll see a drain hole there that lets water into the inside of the frame rail. There are drain holes further back, but it still...

Speaking of alternators, the new one is a duralast reman from Autozone. Very good quality job. I think it was $81. Fits in much better than the old one.. no gaps in spacers, no shimming. I'm starting to be a Duralast fan. Water pump is new Duralast also.

Good point. Did that.. had to shim the PS pump.

Ya you guessed it, Gates it is. May try the Oreillys

not at end of adjustment

Well, the fan is easy to turn. Think maybe the pully is glazed, needs some more sanding perhaps. Was thinking of trying a different type belt too. I have new gates with the knobby contact side. Maybe a smooth one would be better.

Well I'll be dipped (as Derek would say) I took both belts off and started it up and no screech! I guess it was a belt squeak issue after all! Specifically, the alt, WP and main pully one is the problem one since I already removed the PS belt earlier in my ordeal. I'll try a different brand I...

There's no shroud. I'll check the clearances tomorrow too.

Well, I did that for the PS pump, I guess I can take both off and start it up and see. I'll do that tomorrow.

Yep, did that. Pretty sure the belts are not the noise.

Water pump is new and just installed before the video. Alternator is new installed two days ago, shaft is good.

Yes, I'm reving it by hand there. Belts are good.

Hello guys and gals.. I have developed a very loud screeching noise at cold startup when reving. The condition seems to go away after a few minutes of driving, but I am worried now and I'm trying to prep the Charger for Carlisle trip. Car details: 1972 Charger 318 rebuilt about 10K miles ago I...
