If you're getting a bunch of on-then-off-then on again lights, unhook your battery cables and leave them off for a few hours. This will clear out some of the "multiple hits" codes and give you the most important first within about 50 miles. If it's major, it'll pop at start up.
A code reader...
Welcome from North Carolina, much closer than that guy (lol)! So, what ever happened to "old" Zealand? I really liked that place. Had great tasting Pavlova.
I hear ya.
Here is a list of my projects that I currently have, and that can be completed with a little bit of money and a whole lot of time...
'70 Jeep Gladiator Pickup- 350-v8, short bed, 4-speed
'69 Dodge D400- 20K original miles, cab & chassis
'69 Dodge D100 pickup (this thread )
'55...
My first project was a '69 Road Runner. Bought it when I was 17 and worked on it till I was about 35. I finally gave in and sold it to be able to finish my Duster. Two years later, it rattled the house windows as it pulled up my driveway! It takes money to play this game, and I just didn't have...
I will do that. Looks like it will be 2 weeks before I get it to the house. My oldest son (12) is already trying to lay-claim to it. As soon as he heard I might sit the 383 in it, he started talking about making it into a sleeper. There is a speck of hope for the next generation! lol
Good information. I've been told that I will have to switch the oil pan to get the big block to sit correctly. I am no-where-near ready to worry about that though.
It may be a couple of weeks before I get it home. It was nice to find out that it has the 5 on 4.5 wheel bolt pattern. That will...
Glad to see you're back too. I've got 2 boys also, and the oldest one's name is Logan!
Easy, quick goals will go a long way at getting back on track. I had to take a break from my resto project, and now I'm listing little things that can be done. It's getting me recharged again.
We're rooting...
Breaker, breaker old gas. No bears in sight, so run a load of 104 octane and a set of SAE wrenches down I-95 to Carolina!
When I hear the Jake, I'll flag you in and yell....
WELCOME TO FOR TRUCKS ONLY!
Excellent information! Is that a "truck oil pan"?
Factory motor mounts or custom built?
My 383 has the factory bowed manifolds. I have not measured anything yet. I hate to say it, but i'm not sure which floor shift, manual transmission is in the truck now.
I've been wanting a good candidate for a rat-rod type project. I believe this one might work. I think it's solid underneath, but I will have to get it on the lift before I make that call. There's a '68 383HP at the house that's been begging me to put it back in a Dodge pickup. I may just have to...
