    No choke makes a 440 hard enough to start. Add in the low battery and shitty quality gas... yeah, not easy. She caught successfully so many damn times too, but just wouldn't stay running.

      either he bought and installed a carb that doesn't have a choke, or removed the choke from the already installed carb (maybe because it stopped working correctly). For some dudes it doesn't bother them that they have to go through a bit of a routine to get their engine going ;-). Not to mention it doesn't look like this car is driven daily, so cold weather may not be a factor.

    • @alexandergronberg87
      @alexandergronberg87  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      matthew owens that’s a lie my 283 takes half an hour to fully start while holding the gas even with a new carb I’m sick of it so I’m getting rid of it, the manual choke won’t even help it it’ll die if you let off the gas no matter what the choke is set at

  • @MrMightyZ
    @MrMightyZ 4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    Awesome car. And it’s doing real good with the starter only cranking at half speed. I’m guessing with a full battery or a new starter it’d fire a lot easier.
    My days with carburettors are over, I’ll never go through that again but kudos to you guys doing it all original. Freaking GREAT car👍🏻

      Id love to find an old Plymouth Fury highway patrol car with the 440 Interceptor. Makes an awesome sleeper with 4 doors and the plain steel wheels with poverty caps. Even with the 3.23 highway gears those big Mopar's would get out of the hole surprisingly quick. My grandfather was a NY State trooper so I got to ride in a few of those full size Dodge's and Plymouth's with the 440 when I was a kid. He would take it out on the back roads and do some monster burnouts 😆. Thats what first made me a Mopar guy and I still am 50 years later

    Just love that idle please bring these days back 😞 I don’t want electric cars - and I’m speaking from someone who was born in 92 - I’m thinking of buying me a 440 long block and finding some old late 70s to early 80s Plymouth sedan or dodge - anything I can drop it in - if I’m lucky enough to find one and just roll with that. The newer cars we have now are amazing but not as exciting and cost a mortgage to drive every month
