75 350 overheating

I own a 75 442 and have consistant overheating problems. Is there anyone out there with the same problem or anyone with a cure. Thanks, Stevo

It might be time for a new radiator. I have found with time most radiators need to be replaced because of build up of rust and general sludge. A radiator shop may be able to flush yours but a new one may cost the same.<BR>Good luck

I had this same problem with my 75 Delta 88. What I found was it had a 3 core instead of a 5 core radiator. Maybe the one in your car was swapped once for a cheaper or used one.
