Registrace 28. 07. 2015
Thez Nutz Garage was started in an effort to show you tubers that they can do most minor repairs themselves in their on driveway!
I will also be sharing videos on restoring a 1978 Ford F-350 dully flatbed mostly from my driveway!
Here I will explain tips, tricks and important information to help you with your project truck! I will try to keep this project on a budget and reuse most of the original parts!
The truck is a 1978 Ford F-350 with a 400m 6.6 ltr and a NP435 4 speed transmission. I bought this truck from the original owner and it’s all original with only 78,000 miles! This truck is what I call a “Farm Find” due to the fact it was a farm truck for 40 years and I found the truck setting in a cow pasture!
I would also love to hear your tips and tricks during the process! I know this will be a learning process and I would appreciate your help! This will be my first driveway rebuild ever, so wish me luck!

Thanks for watching!
I wish i had a reliable fusion i have had yo put 4 transmissions in it and im only at 150k miles. Other than the transmission great car
I have read quite a few of the comments here. I leased my 2019-20 Ford Fusion Energi Titanium as new and having only done 12000 miles with the car always garaged. It still smells brand new inside with not a mark on the car. Until the recall a month ago when the dealer disconnected the plug-in awaiting a new battery to be fitted in October I was avaeraging 120 mpg with most of my trips round turn less than 22 miles. The car has been flawless except for maintenance under warranty with the A/C. I have had about 60 cars in my life and this is definitely one of the best. People who do not own a Fusion do not know what they are missing. I am astounded at some of the large mileages mentioned in the comments. Ford offered to buy the vehicle back a few weeks ago offering an excellent price but I would not consider selling under $35000 because I just cannot replace it. Ford was ahead of the market with the features they have included in all Fusions. I cannot believe the decision by Ford to cancel the vehicle in July 2020. It is so much better to drive than a SUV or crossover. I am temptd to buy also 2020 AWD 2 litre turbo Titanium. It would also be a great version to have.
Just did mine. Saved 700 plus bucks. I got a new after market camera from Wal-Mart for 28 bucks with free shipping. The part # is ES7Z-19G490-A. Don't forget the dielectric grease.
I always replace the edges battery with the bigger 48 battery which moves the lock out to the other hole.
Dude I have an 18 sport same color and wheels. 40k on the clock and runs a 12.01 muncie dragway.
Great video . Got it open !! now to order the aluminum thing.
Great video. I've own my 03 F-150 for 6½ years now. The back doors have never worked. I have to repair the doors so I can reseal the back window. Thanks for the information.
Glad it helped
Thank you for your video, I absolutely appreciate it. I couldn’t find any other videos on my model with the amount of detail that you provided.
You're very welcome!
Did you have to add a fog light switch? Do you have a video on that? t.y. 100th 👍 btw... 🙌
I bought a OEM switch off of Ebay that had the fog lap switch built into the OEM switch.
200K miles!!
I am at 169,000 now
please, are you advise me to get ford escape OR not (I did not have idea about it )
I have never owned an Escape but stay away from the 1.5 ltr engines
please, are you advise me to get ford escape OR not (I did not have idea about it )
please, are you advise me to get ford escape OR not (I did not have idea about it )
It’s crazy but this is my first car ford fusion 2014. No experience and Bought it 7/20/2024. 100K miles. $11k. Rate interest 21%/ yr. I feel like stupid after buying at this high rate. And I’m searching how it’s reliable and trying to motivate myself that I got a good car. 😢
what engine do you have. my Fusion is currently at 169,000 and no problems. Just stay up on your maintenance.
Why does every video i find never tell the hewd bolt Socket size have q 400 need Socket size plz help csnt find anywhere is it 7/16?
I bought a 2019 Ford fusion, about a year ago, I love it and it's fun to drive. I needed a new battery and went to a parts store and they directed me to go to a shop; they couldn't put the battery in, but didn't say why.
The computer has to be reset for the new battery. I have never done that and my batteries last about 5 years.
Not sure how to get the top two torx bolts when I can’t open the door 😂
i need another truck like this so i can make a video on just that.
The 2.5L and the 1.5L feel like completely different vehicles
I wonder about the Fusions with the 3.5, AWD how fast they are.
That backup camera thing happened to me
I have a 1998 F250 Light Duty. The same cables are the same. However, I didn't replace the cables. I purchased the broken parts from Amazon for 8.00, cut the broken parts off and slipted the aluminum parts on to re place the broken rubber/plastic ends and all is well.
I have done that too. I have bought the entire assemblies. It just depends on thew situation.
I bought my 2015 with 68k. A month into having it. I’ve had to replace the transmission. Around the same time I had an issue with it not defrosting. I’ve had many many issues with the radio not connecting with my phone. At 100k my radio screen took a shit.
I guess that is just lemon. I have 169,000 and everything is working great.
my problem is the door will open no problem, close the door and it latches but there is about 1 inch of play / so it is not a tight fit and it rubs against the body making a bumping rubbing noise ?
sounds like door hinges
Thank you so much 😊
You're welcome 😊
Just what I needed. Thank you!
Love my fussion no problems just tires and battery my vent on dash had to replace them
Did you test the POR later to see if it really adhered? I have seen it peel up with a flat screwdriver like nothing before.
It’s is still on there with no problems
@@ThezNutzGarage way to avoid the question lol. Did you actually check it and see if it hardened and bonded to the metal? Or no?
@@GW2_Live yes it’s is still on the frame. I painted the frame after in applied POR-15. My frame was sand blasted before I applied it to the frame.
Yes, I've tried that a few times. The only thing I can think of is it has to be either a Thermal fuse, a Thermostat I think I'll look for one of those kits and replace them all. If anything else comes to mind, please let me know. Thank you
You should go to CZcams to see all of the videos that show how to replace the headlight bulbs without having to remove the bumper.
I have replaced the low beams without removing the bumper.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! This video saved me hundreds and although my husband and I took more than 5 or 10 minutes, it was a Godsend!
You’re welcome. God bless.
Hey, how are you doing? I have a Samsung DVE55M9600V Flex Dryer that went into Vent Blockage mode. Cleaned out the vent going through the wall and in the dryer, and put it back together. But, the dryer still goes on for a few moments then turns off for a minute or two, goes back on for a moment or two, and turns off again. It's like it's stuck in the Vent Blockage mode. Can you share some wisdom on what could be wrong?
I wonder if there is a way to reset it. Did you unplug it for awhile to see if it would reset the computer.?
Yep, tried that more than once after replacing the fuses & thermostats, and heating elements as well. Still starts for few seconds off for a few minutes than on again for a few sec and off again. Still nothing
I would love exactly measurements! I am doing a 78 F250
Refresh my memory on the video?
Thanks for the info!
Any time!
Thank you. Just changed out in a 2019 Ford Edge ST today. Total time of less than 5 minutes. The check engine light did not come off yet. Can I reset without a computer or taking to the dealership?
Has to be reset by a obd2 scanner
very cool, great video, thank you... having hard starting on my moms 2001 sport trac, first I though it was the iac ( from oreilly's)and replaced that first, then fuel pump( airtex brand from oreillys). seemed to help but the hard start came back. EVen tried the fuel pump relay switcheroo thing once and did not help. So You have to throttle it it a lot every morning, I mean a lot of gas pedal, then will finally start but will barely idle and really rough at first like if it is not running on all cylinders, you have to let it warm up and feel throttle smooth out after about 5 minutes of idle and warm up. Truck runs good all day after this. Come next morning same hard start. NO check engine light ever. but I get two codes , b2276 which online says could even be a bad ignition lock cylinder ground? is that possible? other code is B1359 which online say could be gem module or ignitions "switch" but Im guessing they mean the ignition switch tumbler where the key goes in, but of course that is a whole new key with chip and will need new key reprogramed as well. So this truck had an aftermarket alarm with remote start, my mom had that removed recently and had a local locksmith unplug the aftermarket alarm and install and program an Oem style square ford factory looking remote fob. Now the hard start was the same before and after the aftermarket alarm removing/unplugging so I dont think the issue was with the aftermarket alarm. Only other thing the truck has is sluggish door lock actuators, It usually needs two pushes of the unlock button on the remote to open the door locks. Truck has just over 200k miles. Also i have not checked the fuel injectors at all, they are original. My question about your video is you dont show how you moved the harmonic balance forward the first time you show that... you dont actually show that process? who did you move it forward away from the engine the first time? I am gonna go lock at her harmonic balancer and crankshaft position sensor.
I am having the same exact problems with my Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4.0 . Me and my husband been trying to pin point the problem as well. We got the key reprogrammed and thought that would solve it. The truck runs very good but now we’re back to the No starting. We’ve replaced the fuel pump and starter on top of filling it up with GAS ⛽️ still no starting. A neighbor told us it could be a MAF sensor issue or Crankshaft sensor so right now I’m just frustrated cause I’m hoping this works. So I can drive my truck again.
I bought a harmonic balancer puller
thrust bearing, throw out bearing is in the bellhousing
Just inherited this exact car from an old lady and it has 45K on it. Always garaged too. Love it and it hauls ass. Thinkin on putting some rims and tint on it. One thing I'd like to know is where is the subwoofer in it and what is it?
Rear window deck. I put new tires and wheel on the car several months back.
Just beautiful
Happy late father's day
Thank you
Wow definitely a nice front bumper from rough country
Thank you
351 4v heads aren't necessarily the beat route to go. They are heavy cast heads. Save weight and go aluminum
Thanks for the know how. I bought a F 150. 2001. Great work truck but back doors didn't open .I know now.
U have got to be $hitting me.
I have a 2000 4.6 f150 and have been having this P0104, restricted fuel issue for a loooooong time. My gas milage has been stupid crazy low. It's a good thing i dont do a whole lot lol. I have replaced the 3 things you mentioned and sooo much more 🤦🏽. I have asked people, searched video after video, and forum after forum, and no one could help. Although i haven't checked the side canister yet, as it is almost 11pm, i will definitely be doing this first thing in the morning. I really appreciate you putting this video together and explaining as awesome as you did. This is the only video of yours that i have seen so far, but i have subscribed and will definitely let people know of your channel. Thanks again!
I changed the whole purge valve , about a year ago check engine came on with p144c , do you think it’s the purge valve again ?
I love how you explain the video in detail and I was waiting for you to explain more when you got inside of the car like when you was pressing the down arrow button to show us the screen.... And also waiting for you to explain the touch screen version of what it all could do but it's okay I'll figure it out you still did a great job keep going on the videos you can tell that you're a real mechanic🎉❤😊
I used to be a Ford loyalist before switching to Toyota, but I might be in the market again soon. Definitely will consider this car on my search.
Getting the same replacement cable is good. But in the long run replacing the brackets that hold the cable to metal ones are better and will last longer.
Your video is plenty of help
