1978 Ford F-150 pulled off the fence row. Will it run? Preproject Overview
zhlédnutí 88Před 3 lety
1978 Ford F-150 Ranger. In 2007 this truck went from farm truck to daily driver. Interviews restored and exterior got maintenance. Then it was driven for less than a year and parked. Only to be driven twice a year until 2015. It hasn’t run since. This video is a placeholder for where it is starting. Plans are to do Holley Sniper EFI, upgrade ignition, exhaust, cam, maybe fix the brakes, and an ...
Superduty Vacuum Hoses and Coolant Line reroute and cleanup
zhlédnutí 2,6KPřed 3 lety
How I rerouted the 4x4 vacuum lines on my Superduty to make for a cleaner look under the front of the truck. Mainly due to being lifted and installing 4-link bars. As well as rerouting the coolant lines to clean up under the hood. This does away with the factory coolant tube that sticks up and looks bad under the hood.

My weed eater has been finicky lately not wanting to run right or start. I decided the carb was getting old so it might need replacing. The latest issue was immediately flooding when I tried to start it. This happens intermittently and has become irritating. Final conclusion, the fuel mixture screw needed to be adjusted. It is capped so it should never be able to move. But once the cap is remov...

    You really should consider using a jack to get under the car. If you notice the drain plug is at the front of the pan. You need to be able to lower the car back down to get all the oil out. There is probably a half quart or more that doesn’t drain when you are using the ramps. Just a suggestion.

I put new rancho shocks on it and it helped for a while but it's back to feeling loose and bouncy on my driver's side. This all started after I took it to a mechanic to stop the death wobble. I'm thinking it's the coil springs? It has 200,000 miles on it. What could it be other than the coil springs? I just want it not to hit so hard when I hit bumps.

      I think you are right. I’m getting death wobble really bad lately and I just looked and there is a hood bit of movement in that joint. I’m now going to swap over to PMF solid track bar and drag link. Get rid of all the ball joints and rubber bushings that allow wear and movement over time.

    From the experience I had on one of my Ram's (the death wobble), about 3 months ago I was on a black top road and drove through a real bad section of the road. I had the same occurrence with my F250 I did with my Ram years ago. Didn't think much about it until the other day I drove over a spot by home at about 35-40 mph and it happened again. So, I'm going to replace the ball joint and put in an aftermarket track bar. Hope that fixes it. Truck has a 111k on it and the wife won't let me buy a new one yet.

    • @micalstephenson
      @micalstephenson Před rokem

      My truck has had death wobble off and on since 85k miles when I lifted it. I’m at 245k now and it’s back again. I did the wiggle test and saw movement in the lower track bar ball joint, ball joint on pitman arm, and upper track bar bushing. All 3 joints together make for a lot of movement. Going to switch to solid mounts and heims on all 3 of those. I will try to do a video and share my experience. I’m going to use PMF parts.
