I guess I'll update here. Installed the radiator, and actually ended up using the crappy chrome Summit fan that was on the car when I bought it. Haven't overheated once since install. It actually keeps the temp almost too low. Probably gonna change out the thermostat soon so I have a working...

Found it! Link My bad, it's a volvo. Dunno why I thought it was a studebaker.

oliver, is that the motor they put in a Studebaker? (I'll try to find the video)

Thanks for the info! I just might have to revisit this idea...

Okay, that's weird. I have given serious thought to doing exactly that! There's an army surplus store down the road from me that has cables that adjust via a knob that you turn that I think would fit the bill nicely. I just wasn't sure if it's a good idea to actively adjust the pressure. If...

What gasket are you using?

Maybe you should wire that lever back. :) Super easy. Takes like, 2 minutes under the car.

So... I got it running. You ready for this 67?... I, uh. Well... I cleaned the terminals and clamps. Now, I did check them and they honestly looked fine to me. No white build up or anything. But they weren't nice and shiny. So I though to myself, "Self, ya know 67dart273 really put a lot of...

Yeah. They're clean and tight.

So, I got it started by jumping. That definitely points to the battery, doesn't it?

Thanks 67Dart. I'll go down your checklist after I have the battery tested and report back!

Thanks for the tip Jos! I'm terrible when it comes to batteries. I thought >12v was good-ish? I've heard about shorted cells but didn't know how to test for them. I think I'll just take the battery in and have them test it. It is a 2+ year old walmart battery so I wouldn't be surprised if it's...

'72 Dart Custom Sedan. Alright, this one is baffling me and I'm not sure where to start looking. Last Monday, I parked my car after coming home from school. I've had no issues that lead up to this. Tuesday morning, I go out to my car and it wouldn't start. The dome light was on, and...

This is how I ran mine as well. A few hundred miles in and no issue at all.

Thanks for the clarifications younggun! :-)
