I have a 73 cuda 340 auto car and it runs hot, it has been flushed, new radiator, water pump and thermostat.
I am thinking that the exhaust manifold heat riser needs checking next. It may be letting exhaust gas into the manifold at all times.
How can you check this out. The circlular mechanism on the outside and the spring work but real easy.
I am thinking about removing the exhaust head pipe and trying to see if this mechanism is working correctly.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks Ralph
