Engine Cooling problem
1965 Other Ford Models V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 150 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I just had my Ford Fairlane 289 rebuilt. Edelbrock carb (4V), edelbrock manifold, headers, new water pump, new mechanical fuel pum, new cooling hose, and thermostat. The car idles well when cool and seems to drive fine when just started. Upon driving the thermostat will show a jump to about 3/4 on the guage. The engine will basically shut down like starved for gas, vapor lock? I re-routed the fuel line away from the block as it seemed hot. Help!
