more 302 problems
alrighty so i fixed my rocker problem, i have a carb problem, it seems to not choke properly and so it will flood when the engine is warm.... but my real problem is this, sunday night i'm out cruising in my galaxy, the 302 is just pumpin right along no problems and tempature gauge says that its all good, so i get about 20 miles from home and it starts steaming.... so i stop her and open the hood and pull the radiator cap, its empty... the next morning i find out why, a freeze plug(the one behind the motor mount) blew out, anyone know what would cause enough pressure in my cooling system to blow a freeze plug out?
