WILL IT RUN? 1985 D150 saved from being parted out. SOMETIMES CHEAP IS NOT GOOD 

bought my 85 d150 2 years ago ran great for a year then the spark plugs got fouled out, put in a new ignition system with new wiring, runs strong again, put totally new suspension in, 318 only 87,000 on it, no rust holes anywhere, guy i bought it from just used it in the summer for camping trips, favorite vehicle ive ever had

Dude that will be a sweet truck either way you go. Keep it for yourself or flip it. Once the trans is figured out and a good cleaning, she will up and going again.

Love that truck. That would make a great rolling restoration project. I don't think it has more than 100k.

It's possible you overfilled the transmission if you checked and added level in park. Those Chrysler transmissions usually need to be checked in neutral.

That is wild!! I've never seen a transmission do that, but I don't make a living as a mechanic either. Even if you have to rebuild or replace the transmission for $500 bucks you got a steal of a deal on that rig.

Keep up the good work!

Never dry start a engine without priming the engine with oil.

Get thee to a parking place! If you examine the dipstick it will tell you what conditions to meet for measuring the fluid. Amazing that the wheels will both roll and be braked! Go through the carb no matter what you think. And the radiator bubbles; purging of air or exhaust gases?

The vent on a dodge transmission is inside the bell housing you have to remove transmission.

Set that cold idle.Make sure the heat from the exhaust is circulating on the air intake filter doors.

Have fun😅

Make sure the full 12 volt for ignition is on.before the Resistor block.

When it boiled over, it looked red in color. My idea is to bring the radiator to a shop and have it checked.

Cooler stopped up

Good spark.Take off carb and prime it.

Gas gotta get in crank too EGR and PVC.

You should try some Lemon Pepper! Lol Seafoam would be better. :-)

Would like to see more on this truck. You can get er going. I woul dtry changing transmission fluid and screen first.

Sounds like it is coasting on a cylinder when it is starting. Need to run a compression test to check see if it has a soft cylinder. Striaght ole truck, $500 great deal.

Just in time so let me get into this 😀

Them cragars would look cool on the dart

Hold it flat to start it if flooded. Check the auto in neutral warn with the motor idling.

Nice truck

Yep sounds like one Clynder is no compression.Unbalanced crank.

Check your battery resiter make sure its not messed up n checknfor charging problems

I've got an 82' W350, with 4 speed manual transmission. This spring It's gonna run.

Tap tap on the carb it'll be fine

Carb float stuck?

Adjust cold choke.

You might have just burnt it up buy trying to force it to move

Should be 727 trans

its a geyser . she will be a good daily mate after a few mods had 4 cars with a 727 not one did that

Old gas in tank and water.

Look at the color of what puked out of the radiator. You definitely have trans fluid leaking into your cooling system. Still doesn't explain why it's puking out the dipstick, though, unless you really overfilled it, but as you said, you had and then lost all gears. Weird.

In the traney from sitting

You got a volve sticking

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👼👼🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍😃😃😃😃

Dome light on by headlight switch turn clockwise yo shit off

Doesn't sound to bad.

Hasnt got 200,000 it has 300,000

Was young then? 😂

🫢🫢truck.

Bang on it with a ranch if it's flooding I will loosen the needle and seat in the carburetor and stop the flooding issue for a temporary fix and also remember that those trucks had that screw initial module up there on the firewall that always goes out but what you can do and there's several videos on this is you can fire it off AGMA initial module you just have to make a little white come out to the GMA initial Michael 2 and there are several videos on how to wire it up that is the best way and outright to cheapest way to fix it because I didn't miss him my huddle from eighties seventies to eighties GM HIM actual fires a lot And more than that little Box and those trucks did as far as hot spark

Biometal choke and hot air doors.
