Yeah, it depends on a lot of things like rpms at cruising speed etc.. However, I'm wondering what the normal operating temp is of a 318?

Cruising steadily at 55mpg the engine temp ranged from 190-210F in about 90 degree weather. Also, my belt was probably slipping this whole time as it just blew and I will replace it tomorrow but I was wondering what the base temp is for a 318?? Thanks!

So I replaced the fuel filters, and installed a new fuel pump the other day and it has been running great!!! I just wanted to post so people with similar issues may be able to diagnose their problem off this post. ...I'm sure now that I've said this it won't run great anymore though... Thanks...

....Or maybe the fuel pump is just not pulling fuel. $33 is pretty cheap for the stock replacement http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRT-M60514/. I wonder if I should try this too. Any recommendations? Where can I find fuel lines?

The particles are before the fuel pump which is why I'm happy there's a filter in place before it. This is also why I suspect that the problem is before the fuel filter/pump like in the gas tank or fuel lines. What's a tank drop entail?

Why's that? Because it's robbing the pump or making it work harder? I definitely may be incorrect but my thinking is wouldn't I want to protect the pump before all the debris got to the pump?

Thanks, I think that is probably my next route

Hey guys, My 318 Duster has been having trouble with stalling while it idles down as I roll to a stop or coast around a curve, it hesitates off idle, and starts hard like it is flooded after it has stalled. I've been running around all over trying to figure it out and am frustrated!!!!!! I...
