Guys, this was great ! My mechanics career started at age 9 on grandmas 1969 Plymouth Satellite. The drivers door was stuck shut and went from being the after school hang out eating ice cream and snacks with the guys, wrenching on her thru the years even though she would never see the road again. That 318 taught us so much and besides setting our hair on fire a few times with the backfires thru the carb as we learned about point gap, dwell and ignition timing..... these were our golden years. No worries, no pressures, just the sound of that gear reduction starter whiring the beast to life and the 5 of us piling into the bench seats for a speed run down the back streets of our development when no one was looking.. FF to today and I have all the old dwell meters, carb tools tool boxes full of memories. I could go on and on and all of the guys from the old neighborhood are still alive and would have a pie eating grin on their faces as they told you about the time..... On a technical note, you should properly gap and dwell the points after checking to see that the cam lobes are all there on the point block in the distributor and the bushing is tight, not flopping around. Second that "NEW" carb prob full of trash or flash casting. The old one properly jetted or as close so for todays fuel. The exhaust could be plugged from a rotted muffler or mouse nest. Where there is more stuff I have forgotten than I can remember the oil filter plate gasket was a sore point and can mimic a rear main oil seal until it blows out completely.

[@salamisalesexpress]

Life pro tip: Use an old windex or other spray bottle for your "get it going" gas. Pre-atomizes it and if it flashes back through the intake you don't have a direct path to your container of gas. Also, less spillage.

[@edkelley1649]

I mention this because of what you said with the new carburetor. I am a Mopar guy I am 54 years old and I own a 69 Dodge Dart GTS convertible 340 Auto. This might sound stupid but trust me one day you might thank me. I bought a brand new alternator once thinking well that was the problem and a brand new alternator would fix the problem... right? Well guess what a brand new alternator that was properly assembled would have fixed the problem so for another week 5 days I don't remember I sat there scratching my head thinking a new product would fix what I knew it was then it made me think I didn't know what the problem was because I didn't think that a brand new product would be defective. Well guess what I got a defective alternator and it screwed me all up back when I was about 17 years old so I hope that maybe you might remember that guy's CHEERS God bless you all WOW....@ 33.33 ... my number even.....crazy... YOU MADE IT CLEAR YOU WERE ALREADY AWARE OF MY ADVICE. ..I SAY.. WELL DONE!

[@chrgrmke]

if your timing is set up properly, the rotor should point to the left front intake manifold bolt.

[@James-vp2jn]

I agree with Accuracymark about the nylon timing sprocket cam side teeth are likely crumbled off. Dylan lined the rotor up right, but I suspect the teeth are missing on part of the sprocket. The rotor changes position as the chain slips. Easy check is to take the cap off and turn the engine over about ten revolutions watching the rotor movement.

[@Tremorx00]

I have a 72 Charger 340 that sat for about 20 years when I got it. About a year before I started seriously working on it I cranked it over and nothing else. When I started working on it with some friends we dumped gas into the carb and it ran. We used a snowblower gas tank to let it run for longer once we knew it'd fire. It ran rough but it still ran and even drove about a foot forward.

[@GarageItYourself]

Well done to you guys for helping get this family vehicle back on the road again. You can tell you're both true car guys by how it emotionally affect you both to see the family able to drive the car once more.

[@pauliossi2674]

If you pour gas down the carb vent tube it will fill the float bowl on an empty carb. 20 years without running just get it running and let the valves. lifters and rings try to get happy, sometimes a quart of ATF in the engine will help loosen things up

[@31847448]

Better to use a diesel engine lube oil like Shell Rotella , drain old cruddy oil crusty crud in pan, remove oil kilter and put on a new one 2/3 full of clean fresh oil. Run off a boat tank temporally installed it it gets that car and there is spark and good wiring. R and R install oiled thread or anti seize greased up new plugs and squirt in oil squirts directly into cylinders . 50 50 10w or 29w mixed with half marvel mystery oil in your hand held oil can squirter pump oil can. Dump in 4.5 quarts new oil and hand turn over engine at least eight times before trying starter motor . Have a handy old blanket and fire extinguisher there 5:46 5:46

[@paulbikesmalta885]

Love this type of videos, just a small tip , its easy to know firing order, 1 undu distributor cap. 2 remove spark plugs, someone starts cranking a bit by bit . 3 you place a valve grinding stick on top of first hole on L or R cyl head, 4 while cranking you will here compression bursting the grinding stick, 5 as you here that tdc comp , look at the rotor arm were it is pointing , then you mark on distributer no 1 and number one on the spark plug location, . and make the process on 8 cylinders , that is your firing order. CHEERS

[@TheRickJames]

I always just used my finger, I also don't use the cap to rotate firing orders because of the vacuum advance in the distributor, I usually take the distributor out and find TDC then install the distributor properly.

I only worked once on an American engine in a GMC Sierra from 1984. And after installing an Edelbrock intake and converting to 4 barrel carburetor, I went through the exact same procedure to figure out the ignition. Amazing how difficult such a simple thing can be. And I found as many diagrams online as I wanted, all saying something different. Only took me 2 hours. The time it takes me to take out the V6 engine out of a 1994 Audi A6. At least I could sit in the engine bay of the GMC. Even with 1,90m height

[@andrewkiwi1]

I had a vw motor once that ran like that with a bent distributor shaft. Everything else was good. It takes time to find these problems. Ive had a late model Merc v8 that was towed into the shop not running. It fired but kicked back through the intake. Just coil packs and a pin on the flexplate and pick up on the side of the motor. You think to your self maybe the pick up is faulty so you put the car on the lift and take it up so you can change it . Then you notice the trans has been out of it because its spotless. Phone the customer then you get the full story. The trans had been out to get repaired and the shop couldn't get it to start after refitting it. (A bad shudder on take off from a cracked flex plate thus damaged torque converter.) The flex plate had been replaced too. The flexplate has a small centre punch mark near its centre that aligns with a punch mark on the end of the crank and the flexplate was 2 bolt holes out. So sometimes the problem has a totally unexpected cause. So go easy on your under paid and over worked mechanic. Good vid guys.

[@td6647]

For some weird reason getting shocked by the ignition is exhilarating to me so I use my body to judge how strong the spark is if there is one then go from there. But one time I forgot to ground my free hand and the closest part of my body to the car was my baby maker... I'm here to tell you, I was not expecting that! It flexed a whole different set of muscles, lol!

The Charger has the wrong ballast resistor; I'm not sure if that is the reason for the pulsing idle. I would put a stroker kit into the original engine and drive it for 30 years.

[@Mercmad]

The pulsing can be overly rich at idle or a punctured diaphragm in the distributor adv/retard and stuck or broken adv. weights. A timing light is a quick easy way to check.

[@robw7205]

I absolutely love the sound of the Old Chrysler starters. I owned a 68 Dodge Coronet R/T back in the early 80"s, Purple with a white top, Best car I ever owned. Drive that car everywhere ! Beat the shit out of it too LoL

[@xozindustries7451]

Good job guys, a couple of heat cycles does a lot of wonders in an old engine

[@bradfordjeff]

I had a 73 Satellite Sebring in that same pickle green, same 318, same carb. It was the terror of the town for many years.

[@tomcleghorn4005]

That's awesome. I didn't think it was gonna run!

[@unclemikeb]

I can't believe people ignore a car like that. But if to them it has no special value then to them it's just an "old car". I am so glad to see you get it back in service.

[@joeychaseable]

The 69-70 Chargers are one of my all time favorite classic cars. I'm gonna have to give credit to the Dukes of Hazzard for that.

[@woolyhighlander7280]

What's wrong with the 68's ?

[@RegulerShowTV]

@@woolyhighlander7280 68’s are the best IMO
