on sun 12 dec 2004 155042 -0500 budd cochran wrote joel clean the grease and crud from the front of the engine right under the drivers side head above the power steering pump if you have one and see if some numbers are stamped on the engine on the area thats a vertical machined flat surface. they should read 318 340 or 360 with 318 and 360 being the normal truck engine sizes but i wouldnt put it past someone swapping in a 340. there should be a manufacturing date and possible a serial number also iirc. also the small block engines have the distributor in the back just in case yours has it up front and tilted toward the passenger side big block swapped in vbg. most big block numbers are on the machined pad next to the distributor hold down. -- budd thats probably the info i need. she is a small block. the only two chrysler motors that i have any experience with is the 318 and the 383. that and fixing that roll pin that seemed to break on the distributor of the slant six. that was about 20 years ago. and then only on the driving and minor maintenance end. thanks again for the help. whats the difference between a bad golfer and a bad skydiver one goes whack darn and the other goes darn whack. on sun 12 dec 2004 084709 -0500 maxpower wrote your local dodge dealer does anyone have a link to a dodge parts supplier on line. preferably with specifications. you wouldnt think that they would be hard to find but i am looking for an oil dipstick. i have an 87 dodge d-100 custom. i believe it started with a slant six. that has been replaced with a v-8. i thought it was a 318 and ordered a dipstick it was about 3 inches to long. the stick that i currently have is 29 inches long from the end to the stop for the tube. yes i have done the change the oil and filter to check if it is the correct stick. any help is appreciated. ordered the one that was wrong from my local dodge dealer. you think that they would have specs on their parts. .

i finally got around to checking things out on my dogkota. some observations if i put the heater control on panel while cruising down the highway it will continue to come out on the floor until i let off the throttle. no surprise there since the engines such a dog you have to have your foot in it all the time so theres hardly any vacuum. i put on a vacuum gauge @ idle 21 hg normal range and steady needle. checked the ign timing and its on 10 btc right where its supposed to be probably ruling out a stretched timing chain. sprayed carb cleaner along intake manifold and etc. looking for vac leaks. ignition parts are a little worn but decent. throttle body was clean. there are no codes except a couple of history codes that dont pertain. oil pressure guage reads low someone posted on here to switch to mobil one and it cured a similar problem on his similar truck. i did and it didnt. gauge probably wrong. i know these are no powerhouses but when the blend door on the heater wont even function at 55 on cruise control that shows you how far the throttle has to be open just to go 55! and like i said no surprise since thats exactly what it drives like. as far as driveability besides having to have your toenails in the radiator to get moving it has a considerable stumble taking off from stopsigns quite bad when cold. and it seems to idle too high and i find myself bumping it up into neutral when coming to stoplights. i suppose setting idle down would make it die on takeoff due to the stumble. sorry for the long post just trying to be thorough. tia .
