i am starting a new thread here continuing on from the one i started in the newbies section...btw pictures, alot of them, are in the album section, (also there is a 70 gtx album but i diverge)...ok so i bought this psat clone not running etc. etc. lot of bondo, but im trying to get it running for the first time in 10 years ive been told...so heres what i have done , found out: first discovery engine not seized huge yeah from me believe me i was nervous...no spark at plugs so we (my mopar man and i) changed the coil, changed the starter relay switch, new battery, new plugs, new plug wires, finally new distibutor cap, and that is what got it to fire, it was the dist cap...so we have a huge crank and fire but no sutained runtime...next up is to change the fuel pump hopefully tomorrow hopefully this will bring sustained running, also need to change the brake lines, front are disc back are drum i think but not sure. so im am trying to get this car on the road, looking for help along the way probably also some entertainment for those who like these cars, maybe some info to pass onto others in a similiar spot...enter fted53 into the youtube searchbar to see some 70 gtx action its the blue one 2 vids for all you mopar lovers.....GO PLYMOUTH!
