    It has been sitting for a couple years. have been doing a lot of work on it,
    got the cylinders lubed real good, eventually started. liftershad
    collapsedbut that worked out and it ran smooth and strong for a good half an
    hour. the check guage light came on and then it shut off. turns over and
    cranks, sounds like it wants to, but wont start. the motor was extremely hot,
    though the temp guage only said 220. there was so much heat the grill was
    hot. does it have a safety where one of the temp switches will signal the
    computer to keep it from starting when it is too hot?

    I know my concorde will shut off when its too hot, best way to tell if
    its doing this is if it starts when it cools down.

    Maybe you got a clog in your oil pump and it wasnt pumping enough oil.
