440ci Runs Good until 180°..Help!!
1970 Charger 440ci 4barrel MSD Ignition/coil/ distributor and electric cooling fans
In need of some help guys, I replaced the thermostat and had the carb rebuilt. I start the car and runs great until 180°. After that she starts to cough, hiccup and have to give it a lot of throttle to even keep running. The digital 6AL box and coil are located up on the front fender well by the radiator/distributor. Could it be a heat soak issue due to being close to the radiator? In need of help or suggestions where to go from here! Thank You!

Holley or Carter/Eddy carb?
Vacuum lines on correctly?
Will it run if you manually choke it to the "pull off" state?
Check your electrical connections. Make sure the grounds for the components are solid.

So you've done this and it is still acting up at temperature or is this a new issue?

Holley carb
Engine bay layout
It's been an on going issue, that why we had the had the carb rebuilt. And over heating bc the thermostat was stuck close. Fixed those issue. We thought it was running crappy due to the carb and t-stat. I will have to look at carb, I can't remember off what's on it. I will.update hopefully tomorrow if I can get a chance to look at it.
Thank You!
Thank You!
