Working Through Problems On My 1982 Dodge W150 Slant Six 4x4 - Dead Dodge Garage

- On today’s episode, I dig into the poor running Iron Goat II, and after assuming that all of my problems were caused by a Weber carburetor the previous owner had installed, I learn that the points (which this truck shouldn’t have) are adjusted so badly the truck shouldn’t run at all. It’s moving in the right direction but definitely isn’t perfect yet.
I thought that was carb cleaner at first...then you dumped the water out 😂
😅
Thank you again for another awesome video! You got me wanting an old Dodge again.
I am jealous. Currently trying to find a slant powered 4x4. Because I like slow things that are ridiculously hard to find parts for, and I can't afford an old power wagon.
As the owner of a slant six power wagon, ouch.
Buy a 318 or 360 powered pickup and a slant 6 car and get a set of the slant 6 mounts from a much more common 2wd pickup and a set of LA V8 mounts and an appropriate flex plate and torque converter for the car (unless it’s a stick) and you’ll have what you want plus a running, driving A,B,C,E,R,or M body car.
I know what you mean about getting easily distracted....this one time I was...wait...what was I saying? Something about...huh..just saw a squirrel. Hi jamie...great video.
"hopefully it doesn't rain on all my treasures" is what washingtonians pray about every day
Citizens of Grays Harbor especially…
Can’t wait to see the truck on the trails!
Thank god mine a 318 ☺️👌
Leaning tower of power, thanks for sharing...
Thanks Jamie
I had a 79 D100 slant six with a short bed and 3 on the tree.iit was ridiculously underpowered. I can't imagine a 4X4 82 being anything but much worse
I’ve actually had an 80s D100 with a slant. That thing wasn’t bad at all, and would burn rubber on the one side without much effort. This 4x4 truck’s engine… wasn’t like that.
Hi, Jamie, Did you figure out the dropping cylinder? @18:10 Actually, follow-up, what would be the most likely two or three reasons for a dropping cylinder? I have the 70s flat-pack ignition box and untouched disti with the plain light coffee cap. Thanks!
I’ll trade you running driving 1979 plymouth Volare for the w150
Unfortunately, I sold it about two months ago as part of my ‘Dead Dodge Garage Sale,’ in which I unloaded just about everything that was sitting around here to buy my ‘68 Charger. It was on its way to Montana last I heard.
What size tire on that rig?
Crap, I don’t remember. They came on it.
can you show me how did you block the egr system
I didn’t do it - but it’s easy enough to unhook the relevant vacuum lines, cap the vacuum source, pop it off, make a plate the same shape as the mounting flange, drill two holes, find or make a gasket and bolt the plate on.
Im a northeastern indiana farm kid lol...
I’m so close to the Pacific Ocean I could have webbed feet… there’s a slightly saltier flavor of redneck out here and I seem to have caught it.
