Please do not use 87 octane fuel. To avoid pinging it's better to use 91 octane or higher in all classic cars. The noise you hear in the carburator is probably the fuel boiling. (Caused by heat and the ethanol in today's fuel) The fanshroud (which is in the trunk) should be put back on the radiator, this will help with the cooling. On cars with A/C you need a 16 psi radiator cap I believe. Personally I would never drive a car without an air cleaner, especcially not with all that dust around. With the overheating and the missing air cleaner there may been already some damage done to the engine, let's hope not. The transmission may have a leaking 'shift-shaft' seal. It's located on the driver side in front, just above the pan rail underneath a shift lever.

11:38 Big "RV2" AC compressor is shown at the front of the engine. By 1971, AC was very common, almost universal in high end cars sold in CA. 14:32 You do have a smog control vacuum advance. When used with the factory AVS , it either retards timing at idle or advances it when not at idle, or some such thing. There should be a solenoid on the passenger side of the carb, but I don't see it here. That helps shut down the car when you turn off the key. The lean timing would otherwise make it diesel. You will be fine with this distributor if you just set the timing. You are going to need a threaded rod on the carb to install the air cleaner. 25:50 When you said the transmission isn't doing much, I remembered earlier when you first put it in gear it moved forward in a way that suggested you are short of trans fluid. You want to check that with the car on and the trans in neutral.

Man this is hard to watch you guys get that poor car going it's cranking over hard from the ether and spark knocking like crazy those are all the things you don't want to do to a engine that has been sitting. how about getting a jerry can and getting 5 or 10 bucks worth of fuel and pour some fuel in the tank and keep some to fill the float bowl on the carb to get the engine going instead of cranking it over all day using ether. obviously it's not getting gas because if it would of it would be running. so it's out of fuel or the fuel pump is NFG

It was cringe inducing to hear that ping while starting. However distributor was initially set way off and loose, the charging/starting system has some weak points that limit the cranking speed.

28:50 I think I would have gone with the 91 octane. 1971 440's still had close to 10:1 compression ratio. 35:59 That ammeter should be moving to the right as you rev it up. it is either disconnected or (more likely) you are not charging. Back when Mopars had true ammeters, reading the movements, no matter how subtle., was very important. Speaking of gauges, most Chrysler of that era (not the other car lines) had a blue lamp for engine cold next to the red lamp for engine hot. Typically the blue light just came on for about 30 seconds after you start the car and the red light never came on in normal driving.

very nice -its a creme puff

35:30 Well, you can get a pretty good guess what year engine , or the block at least, by looking at the pad near the driver side cylinder head. If it has "G440" on it, that indicates 1971 engine. "H440", "J440" would be 72, 73 etc.

Hang on to those original blue plates. It is considered quite desirable to be able to use these original plates on the the car they were originally issued to.

Now try being 3000 miles from home in the 110+ degree heat with only what’s in your toolbag and no parts houses close by or open and getting a car to inspection so you can get a title for it as you have to be present in person for inspection and submitting paperwork to the DMV.. All before you leave for home 3000 miles away the next day in a 1966 model car. How many 50+ year old cars have you driven 3000+ miles across the country? Now I’ve resurrected hundreds of cars and driven these cars thousands of miles. Across the country and everywhere else. They don’t sit in the garage and go to the ice cream shop one time a year on a trailer. Now everything isn’t readily apparent in the video but many things were done and not recorded just due to time constraints and trying to get it done quickly. Other people complained that I drove the car without power steering fluid or trans fluid or any other things their expert eye noticed because they didn’t watch the entire video or assumed things. Which I get it… if you didn’t see it… did it happen? But this isn’t my first rodeo. Also, this car was extensively “worked on” by “certified mechanics” at a “professional” auto repair shop prior to my ownership so that doesn’t mean anything to me. (No offense.) All their work seems to have just caused more problems. The timing was way off but still seemed to not be consistent…Distributor issues perhaps… in fact they didn’t even tighten it down. The carburetor was supposedly rebuilt by a “professional shop” but obviously not well. Accelerator pump wasn’t doing much at all so having full bowls doesn’t really matter…. Hence the use of starting fluid to help. The front pump seal on the trans is not sealing anything even though the receipts from the “certified mechanic” shows they replaced it. Guess they didn’t know what they were doing eh? The alternator did not charge. The fan clutch probably isn’t doing well. Among many other things. You don’t know how many cars I’ve bought and fixed or fixed for other people that “professional”/“certified” mechanics or shops worked on and screwed up or made worse. So titles again… don’t mean anything to me. But guess what? Using a few tools and items in my toolbag that I had with me. I drove the car to inspection and back… the next town over in a 53 year old car that needs quite a bit of work. Mission accomplished! Then I hopped in my recently purchased 58 year old car and drove it the 3000 miles home the next day. Long story short. Sometimes you have to work with what you have. (Now the starting fluid was more tongue in cheek because people complained that I didn’t use it in other videos so I made sure to really use it this time.) But when you’re on the side of the road with a broken down car in the middle of nowhere… you have to figure it out with very little resources. The difference is… I can make it home with ingenuity and the bare minimums. I don’t have an unlimited budget, sponsors and a crew. I challenge anyone to go out and try it on their own. With a bag of whatever they brought with them. When I’m at home I got auxiliary fuel tanks, extra carbs, new distributors, hoses, fluids, tools and whatever else one needs. It’s not the same situation as this. Next time I’m using carb cleaner as starting fluid and anger the other “mechanics” and then I’ll use gas and anger the rest. Because no matter what you do… you have someone who knows better or knows more and they are gonna let you know about it. Thanks for your comment!

Using a MAPP torch and solder off the shelf doing it as best as one can… not in a controlled environment and not to any book. Will people criticize it? I’m sure of it.

But after the repair… I finished my last 1000 miles and got back home the other day without being stuck or having to tow the car or whatever. Not to mention having my family with me. Again.. I didn’t go get the starting fluid. It was in my toolbag as I said. Just used what I had right there and got it done. There were no parts stores to get anything from and no time to wait. I used the can of spare gas as well as the starting fluid because that’s all I had on me and the only option. I got 20 some years of experience working on, maintaining and driving cars. I’m not new to this. Been daily driving nothing but classic cars since I got my license. Been all over the country in them and to this day I’ve always made it home. Though someday I’ll probably truly get stuck due to something unfixable. Not everything can be perfect or by the book. Sometimes there just isn’t enough time or the right equipment. So you can either give up or make it work. I try to make it work. Trust me… I know how to fill the bowl on a carburetor. This isn’t rocket science. When I first tried to start the car it fired. The car had been running not too long before. I thought it was going to be a simple get the fuel pumped to the carb and everything would be cherry. But…. the accelerator pump not wanting to work combined with the timing issues associated with the distributor and the host of other issues due to the “mechanics” who worked on the car prior to me… It made this a little more complicated. I had to undo/fix things previous people had done. And not everything gets recorded as I don’t have a film crew with me either! I had one evening to work on the car and a temporary registration that would be expired by the time I’d be able to come back meaning I couldn’t drive the car. The next morning it had to be at the inspection station. Which then turned into a fiasco you’d see if you did watch it all. The car had to make it to the inspection and if it blew up afterwards it didn’t matter. I needed the title situation to get sorted or the car would be absolutely worthless. Now the car is titled and registered. Anyhow, thanks for commenting and thanks for the advice but really not needed in this case. Enjoy the open road! Maybe I’ll see you out there at some point.

@@nimas.1415 Oh you caught me “bud” I was hoping nobody would notice. Cause putting a hubcap on a car is the most important thing to do when you got to make a car drive to get inspected before you leave the state. Thanks for watching!

Awww she’s mad because she can’t install a hubcap. Keep choking that car with starting fluid and overheating it bud. Let’s see what gives out first, the head gaskets or the transmission you run low on fluid.

@@samuelandrade9246 Thanks for letting me know.

I really wish you'd taken time to check oil, power steering pump could heat it screaming, check trans level instead of near cooking it. You don't continuously rev an engine that has sat for an extended time. If that wasn't enough your pushing accelerator pedal to the floor not knowing trans condition or engine. I'm surprised at your behavior and disrespect for old cars, especially Mopars. I know you have a few more of them, thats why I'm surprised. It's a mateer of respect for the vehicles. Shame on you.

@@kimkramer5773 Did you watch the entire video? All the fluids were topped off. The trans is leaking fluid like it’s going out of style. I HAD to get this car to the inspection station and I didn’t have a truck or trailer. Shame on me for saving this car from being crushed and spending the time, effort and money to get it titled so it can live.

Just another big old car.boring
