![]() HI,
I recently purchased FPF 678B. 1964 408. Vin number : 408 7043. It is not in a good state. It has suffered from a bit of neglect and needs some TLC. I have begun to re-commission it, but it will take some time. I want to get it on the road shortly and use it through the summer as a 'running resto'. Next winter I hope to get it re-sprayed I need some advice. Can someone tell me what the pressure the radiator cap should be please ? It isn't fitted with an overflow bottle, and it blew out 2 core plugs.? I found the wrong thermostat was fitted. It seems to build up pressure but doesn't release out of the rad cap ? I don't have a manual. Many thanks. |
