Re: Overheating 8ba
Back in the day, a radiator shop would pull at least one of the radiator tanks and rod out the coolant tubes. Boiling the radiator will not take all the crap out. Using the proper rod and going through each tube is the only way to insure no blockage. A flow check should show if there is significant blockage. It's hard to find a radiator shop that will do this now days. Just about every town of any significant size had a shop like this back in the day.
On your distributor, if it's a load-o-matic, make sure that vacuum can is working properly. If it has a leak in the diaphragm, there will be no advance at all.
