Thank you I appreciate the help.

entrophy1049, Where did you find the spring? I have not found a parts stores or Mopar restoration parts site that offer the spring.

The lower hose can be collapsed by hand which sounds like it is the main culprit for this problem. I will replace it with one that has the wire in it. The water pump housing is stock cast iron, clean and has the larger opening than some I've seen. The area between the core support and grill is...

The temp does go down fairly quick once I am off the freeway. Maybe couple minutes in traffic and I am dropping rapidly to 180 degree.

Entropy1049, Where are you ordering the lower radiator hose internal spring from? I have never found one the correct size. When I run the freeway for any extended time my temp creeps up very slowly. 180 thermostat and it will get to 205 in an hour or driving at freeway speeds.I have not run the...

There is another one I was just dealing with. The small ( I think #10) wire molded into the engine ground cable clamp from the negative battery terminal to the core support. The post above mentioned 4 others and I want to make sure I have every found point covered. Does anyone have a picture of...

I found the problem while going around with a long ground wire to see if I could find the bad ground point. By chance while the car was running, I touched the core support body ground bolt which was too hot to leave my finger on for more than a second. The ground pad on the weld nut was clean...

69hemibeep, I do not remember seeing one on the passenger side. With the help of your pictures I will track down where it is. Thank you very much for the visual help.

Thank you quickbird, the radiator core ground is clean. When I replaced the battery a few months ago I cleaned up the ground contact and terminal to like new. The terminal is in great shape with zero corrosion. While searching websites I have seen another ground closer to the head light sockets...

Thank you Mac. I tested the sockets with just battery. I will now test with the car running. That makes more sense to test in the normal running configuration. Thanks again

1970 Roadrunner. Has anyone had the high beam head lights dimmer than the low beams? When I turn on the 2 low beam headlights, they are what appears to be of normal brightness. When the high beam switch is used all 4 lights are dim. The total low beam output is much brighter than the 4 high beam...
