Looking into and following-up on the variety of suggestions I've received, I agree that heat soak is the culprit. The insulating gasket is quite thin and I will be upgrading next chance I get. As someone else noted earlier, I can get an initial start up most of the time but have to hold the...

Where would I find such a thing?

Thanks Aspen500, the battery I have is a cheap no name budget battery with 450 cold crank. May upgrade and see if that helps. I am glad to know that's not uncommon. Much appreciated.

So I've got the stock alternator on the Fury and I believe it's 60 amps if not mistaken. I have working A/C and when I'm driving with my headlights on, A/C on and come to a stop I can watch my dash lights start dimming while waiting for the light to change. Once I'm moving everything brightens...

Most drives are 15-20 minutes into town. Occasional highway drives for fun. No issue turning it over after a short sit of 5-10 minutes. It seems to be 30+ minute sits that replicate the issue. Now, I am still able to get it started after some pumping on the gas. Sometimes it'll turn over first...

That's a good question and I could use the guidance on where this is located and what to look for. Couple of things reading all these responses: 1. I may try an ethanol additive, can't hurt. Better yet I may try and find ethanol free around here if I can. See what happens. 2. I've read a...

Car cold starts without issue. However after a drive, if left to sit for 30-60 minutes it's almost impossible to get the car to start again. Im wondering if its a thermostat, vapor lock, or something else all together. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.

Thank you very much!

Front of car, before the oil pan. Seems to be part of the frame, but I'd rather be safe and check.

Hi all, looking for a compatible am/fm radio - cassette deck to replace mine which has a non-working 8-track. At least I think it's non working. I can hear the belt turning but get no sound from the speakers. The tapes I'm using are in pretty good shape to boot. Any ideas or knowledge of where I...

Did you cover anything up prior to power washing? Curious because I wouldn't mind doing the same, just don't want to short anything out.

I've been looking for a replacement stereo with tape deck for my '82 Gran Fury. Does yours work? I'd be interested in it if so. Additionally I also need a replacement interior door handle (the chrome ones). Let me know if available, cost, etc. Thanks!

Haha, thanks. I feel the pics may be deceptive though. I'll take you up on it if I'm ever that way. Lol

Makes sense, thank you!

AC is recharged and ice cold! Question though; coolant looks foamy in the looking glass. Service manual says this indicates low coolant and will go clear when full. Pressure gauge is plum middle of green stating full. I'm trusting the gauge and the cold air, but curious about the service manuals...
