    Need help with missfire under load on 340

    To check coil secondary connect your dvom probe to the coil positive and the other probe to the coil wire output. Check for carbon tracking in the cap. Ive learned the hard way never assume that new parts are good

    Need help with missfire under load on 340

    Check from carbon tracking in the cap, check plug wire resistance and check coil secondary resistance. I just went through it on my Dart. It was all new when I put the 340 in it.

    Need help with missfire under load on 340

    When my 340 did it, it wouldn’t miss cold. It was the very top of the valve spring that broke. As it warmed up it would start to miss.

    Possibly pull the valve covers and check valve springs. I broke the very top of a valve spring and it did the same thing. Kind of a shot in the dark!

    First 1970 Ebody Hemi Cuda - $3,200,000

    It's legit it's a local car. It's rough and really not worth the asking price! Anyone can come see the car it's at the Natmus museum in Auburn, IN. The bal-stud Hemi is also located there.

    New Durango any good?

    As far as depreciation resale on a Durango is petty good. A two year old SXT will bring high 20s. A friend of mine wholesaled mine to me. He had a home for our 11 Equinox so was a win win.

    New Durango any good?

    Both our Durangos are AWD. I'm thrilled with the 8-speed auto. I wasn't at first had to get used to it, I've towed golf cart with did great. They get better MPG with 2wd and 17" wheels.

    My Truck died!

    The problem is in the ecm it is kind of a common problem with early trucks and vans. Then problem is Chrysler's ecm aren't really reprogrammable, from one vehicle to another. The ecm has a broken solder joint, a electronic shop can fix it reasonable and save money over replacing it.

    what a stupid thing to do

    I have used both the crush sleeve and the eliminator. I have never had any issues with the crush sleeve. Kind of sounds like he over tighten the pinion nut. There is a rule of thumb when reusing a crush sleeve is tighten it an extra 1/4 of a turn. That is why he indexed it. I don't like to...

    Original title to a 69 swinger 340 can I keep it?

    If you get a odometer statement they will put the actual miles on new title. As far as keeping original title your best bet is to get a color copy the dmv will keep original. I live in Indiana and don't care for our dmv and their crisp. They will push to have mileage past mechanical limits put...

    After several failed attempts to buy a new trunk lid. I'm think about using my current trunk with tail panel, but at times I like the clean look without finish panel. I'm building a GTS clone out of my Dart GT convertible. I'm planning on using a 340 with fuel injection for nice cruiser. My...

    Header removal on my Dart

    I don't know what brand the headers are they are junk. I've had dynomax headers on a Duster they fit ok. These where just really bad fit. The rest of the exhaust was Pypes with the x pipe. It would have fit ok but with headers it hung done to low and always bottomed out. I just prefer stock...

    Header removal on my Dart

    I'm putting exhaust manifolds back on my Dart. The car had Pypes exhaust on it with headers. The second owner put the exhaust on, I bought it from the third owner, I'm surprised it didn't fall off. Barely on there and not tight. Then to remove the headers, the right side came off fairly easy...
