k. checked my timing and its nothing crazy average.

Fuel is now 14.7-15.2 at idle he said this was fine.

Fuel at wot is 10.5-12 on the rich side but I will take that for now.

Still getting hot. 220 in minutes

Hughes said maybe clogged rad. Fan in the incorrect spot or waterpump bad.

Hughes said mopars just dont run hot and my stock radiator was more than fine for a 408

going to change the radiator cap. Lower radiator hose.

T-stat is opening because upper hose is hot. but will change it for giggles anyway.

going to run a garden hose through my radiator to see if it is blocked.

 

Isn't the opposite of this true? When I bought a new temp. sensor, they gave me the one with two prongs (the one on the right side of the thermostat housing).

 

make sure the water is good, you dont want too corrode the inside of your motor with crappy water

 

well did the lower rad hose

New rad cap

flushed and blew out the rad several times

still climbed right up to 210 in the driveway while idling at 13.4-8 A/F

maybe the water pump?

Block pluged?

Air pocket?

Felt the upper rad hose and t-stat opened.

removed t-stat and tested: Good

felt clutch fan increesse in speed

????????????????????????????????????

 

high flow stat going in now
