A new developement 120-130 1966

Howdy folks, I'm at work right now which is why I haven't logged on.

Anyhow, while under the hood today to try to sort out the float bowl issue, I noticed a bit of coolant under the car.

I checked the radiator and it looked pretty empty, after putting coolant into it and starting the car, it sprayed coolant all over the place.

So it would seem that my cooling system hasn't been doing its job. Maybe this has caused the engine to run hotter than it should, in turn boiling the fuel in the floats.

I'm going to try to either replace the radiator or have the old one fixed, maybe this will solve the problem. Well, with any luck anyway.
