    Gas smell in oil

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    Got it repaired. Ended up using the rubber expansion plugs. I tried to do it right with a freeze plug tool and actual freeze plugs... But after 3 hours and multiple trips to the parts store I gave in. I figured the rubber ones will suffice until I pull the motor. It took me about 3 minutes to...

    I can seem to get the right angle on it with just a socket. Slide all over the place.

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    No salt here except on your corona. AAP didn't have the brass expandable. I got a traditional steel replacement but nobody has a freeze plug tool in town to rent. Auto zone is bringing one in tomorrow for me to rent. Never fails

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    Haha. No kidding. I'm about to walk in the store. They always look puzzled when I say 1969 Chrysler 300. I actually had one guy argue with me. " They didn't make a 300 in 1969".

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    Just did a flush when I had to repair the radiator leak.... Forgot to mention that on the 2015 repair list. Now I am paranoid about the other freeze plugs after seeing this. The big hole was my screw driver the pin hole was the elements of time. I checked the other plugs and none were...

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    It is definitely the freeze plug. I was Planning to try and get a metal plug in to replace it instead of the expandable rubber ones mainly because I like doing jobs right the first time. Upon closer inspection of the other freeze plugs it looks like the previous owner had a freeze plug issue as...

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    Ok jacked it up and ran it a bit to see if I could figure it out without the pump. Initial assessment it looks to be the freeze plug on the rear passenger side of the block. I'm gonna let it cool and clean it up to be sure.

    440 Coolant leak from passenger side

    noticed today I had a one drip per 3 minutes coolant leak on the rear of my 440 primarily on the passenger side. Oil is clean with no water in it. All heater hoses appear to be without leaks. Could this be a leaking freeze plug? Curious if any have experienced this. Thanks. Just wanted to...

    727 TF 3-2 PArt Throttle Kickdown

    Just got the tranny slapped back together with the kick down upgrade... WOW! What a difference in drivability. This is a must have upgrade to anyone without it! If you put in the sweat equity and do the swap yourself it costs about $100-125 bucks in parts and ATF ( depending on your brand)...

    727 TF 3-2 PArt Throttle Kickdown

    Ok I got the parts in and am starting the install. Surprisingly I have not seen anyone document this process so here we go. Removed pan and fluid and filter. I have a question though my new filter looks like it is missing a hole is this correct? The new one appears to be missing a hole...
