Driving my '68 Charger (383 ci) home last night and all of a sudden 1 backfire and then another huge backfire and a big cloud of black smoke out the back! The engine immediately dies and I'm able to pull off the highway. I check for fuel, spark, and crank it a couple of times and more backfire...
This is a OEM 1970's Twist On Oil Filler Cap. It is original,
not a china knockoff, and is in decent condition, just needs a
cleanup and repaint. I can no longer remember for sure what engine
this came off of, but I believe it will work on small and big blocks.
$10.00. Local pickup, or buyer...
Guys, original engine/trans was missing from my 68 when purchased and am putting a 67 dated engine together. In the listing for a 68 convertible here, I noticed the oil pan was stamped 402. Is that OEM correct and are there any other number pans that will work with no problems, thanks
What you're asking is irrelevant. The real importance is the amount of oil in the pan. The dipstick/indicator should be tailored to the actual, and correct, volume of oil.
451 on the topic of break in oil, I’m deciding on what viscosity and brand. My engine builder included 2 small bottles of a mix to add to I believe the oil Mabye it’s gas? With this additive I should not buy break in specific oil correct? As for brand I was interested in either royal purple or...
Before Los Angeles became known for its film industry, it was a significant center for oil production. In 1892, Edward L. Doheny discovered the first successful oil well near what is now Dodger Stadium. This discovery led to the Los Angeles Oil Field becoming the leading oil production area in...
I changed the oil and filter on my 440, recent build with a new pump, Wix filter. Started it up, no oil pressure. Scared the crap out of me, pulled the filter, pulled the pump. Couldn’t find anything wrong, got out another filter, half- filled it with oil, put it all back together, started up...

So.....I replaced the oil filter hoping I'd get lucky. Yeah right. I went for a ride and about a mile from I house, here comes the squealing sound again. Came home and I used a stethoscope to help pinpoint the noise. When I touched the timing chain cover, WOW, I can clearly hear it. I...
Hi everyone I have a question about the 4 holes on the back of the motor mainly the 2 hole on the left and right of the crank. So when I am running my engine at idle does great 50 psi of oil pressure then if I give a bit of rpm oil will start to come out of the bell hosing I am wondering where...
How about a squealing bypass valve inside the oil filter? Change the filter and see what happens. That's all I got...except...
I suppose an oil pump pressure relief valve could squeal (broken/weak spring), but I don't know if you would see pressure pulsations on a gauge tee-d in at the sensor unit.
The oil pan was pretty dented up but a new one is $200 so I decided to knock the dents out and repaint it.
Then I discovered it's not technically correct for my car. It's a 187 oil pan, where from what I read the '68-'69 440s came with a 402 oil pan.
Since my car is not numbers matching (the...
