You can do LOTS of reading about engine oil suggestions doing a search on the forum. Due to my build, a higher zinc formula is called for. I did considerable research on oil and made a decision to lower the oil weight I was using finding the oil pressure always high and some unnecessary...

You ask a friend to check it for you.

Me too..

Can’t take it anymore in general or just this thread?

Never gave this much thought, actually none, other than remembering how much heavier the 7-blade fan I installed was from the 4-blade I removed. No clutch. Maybe I should put one in...

Ahh yeah, sold my sound-level measuring equipment when I retired, part of my work was conducting surveys for osha compliance, engineering/sound-reduction controls when it was required, determining appropriate PPE to be worn for the exposure, initial and annual employee training, writing the...

Checking some reviews I found on Summit and Amazon, only a couple reported about fan noise. One said after he ran it around for a while it quieted down some. Another mentioned adjustment. I gather these come in various ratings – heavier, lighter duty. You might check the reviews; many reported...

Driveshaft balance?

Look up this thread I posted a while ago. Removing pipe thread hose fittings

Might be helpful to report what have you tackled…related to the suggestions tossed out? As a wild guess, given your burning eyes, it could be running way rich via carb and/or timing. I’d suggest tracking through what you’ve tried along the suggestion train in this thread. I’m still trying to get...

I installed an early Mopar electronic ignition in my ’63 soon after I bought it some 25 years ago. Only two occasions when something went awry, ECU and the ballast. I keep spares in the trunk. Each their own, as some like to stay original and find the old setup reliable – if – it’s serviced as...

Post #8 yes, I'm curious about this addition as well. Came across this addition being sold on ebay a few years ago and lost track of it. All I can say is when I want to have a part-throttle go, I press the buttons manually...it is fun to use them from time to time anyway. Went with a later TC...

Hmm, haven’t heard of this, I switched my 4-blade to 7 and installed an OEM shroud on a hunt to lower engine temp. Didn’t add a clutch or change pully size. As mentioned could be the increased spin. My motor has solid lifters that generate a lot of noise; but no heady fan noise that I’m aware...

I've used the labeled MOPAR filters for years liking the label; could be just a FRAM I've used or any number of filters coming from the same place. Change the oil and filter every spring when bringing it out...that's usually around 1000 to 1200 miles btw changes, I don't race it or beat it, so...

I likely have one, having several extra buttons, some in nicer shape than others; but I restored the ones I my car and came out nice enough for me. If interested send a PM and I can find them and send you a 1st gear button for the mailing fee. I can send a photo.

NICE setup you have. Early on when I bought the ’63, the guy that sold it to me had a factory 4bbl manifold and carb he was planning to put in. At some point dual exhaust was installed, only 2-inch. In ’63 the Plymouth and assume Dodge 318’s weren’t available with a 4bbl or dual exhaust. This...

Bearings were replaced within the past 20-25k miles, first one then the other. Could hear when they were going bad, distinct growling noise. This noise is different. Last week, before taking the trip, fluid was drained/replaced thinking this might have been causing the noise. Truck just turned 94k.

Thought I would post about strange noises from my ’05 Dakota in case anyone has encountered this. Dakota forum hasn’t been fruitful as has my shop looking it over. After returning from a 400 mile round trip, the noise has gotten much worse, ugly sounding. Started with a subtle ticking/rattling...

Yep, ran into this more than once, have even got cars to start by tapping on the ground cable with a the wood handle on a tool. Cable was tight; but still poor contact..

Probably not your hassle as you mention a newish battery. Had this happen on wife's car checking it with voltmeter read 12+ volts, should be a tad more; but when cranking getting clicks, the voltage dropped to under 5 then would snap back showing 12 again when not trying to turn it over...
