I own the same exact truck except an 87. Same color, same engine, same set up w the high pressure pump. Little rust on mine but man i love this truck with all my heart picled it up recently for $1800.
I have a 1994 f150 flareside ext cab 2 wheel drive with a 5.0 been in my dads garage for the past 11yrs red paint red interior with no rust or scratches on it has 79000 miles on it and yes I'm doing the same as you replacing everything but hearing it run makes me feel good knowing it was my dads favorite vehicle he ever had. We buried him yesterday now it means even more. The best of luck on your Ford.
I still havent gotten my truck on the road. Havnt had time to work on it but it does run and drive and like you said to hear it run is a thrill. My dad went into the nursing home for rehabilitation trying to get him to where he can walk better, My joy would be to bring him back home riding in it.
Any time I get a used vehicle, it gets new plugs, wires, cap rotor, belts, hoses, wipers and battery. My last vehicle aquired though is a 96 F250 with the 7.3 powerstroke so I had to learn about diesels. This one now has a new rear tank, tires, alternator, window seals/felts, fuel bowl heater and filter, speed sensor, fresh oil/filter, rear diff fluid and a transmission rebuild at 175,000 miles. I am no longer a young man and everything takes longer than it used to but I will take knowledge and experience over energy and flexibility any day.
Yeah, sho nuff. My problem is life is getting in the way and maybe some decisions I made earlier are hindering me from working on the old girl. I'm building and finishing out a tiny house and putting in a washer and dryer while doing wall coverings and trying to sneak in time to work on the truck. LOL I gotta finish the brakes up still and then there is a plethora of things to do. I'll go over what is left in the next video...
check your ecm capacitors, if your capacitors are bad your fuel pump will stay on when you turn the key on, it should turn on and then off after a second, hope this helps
I just got a 1990 that looks very similar two weeks ago can't key start yet solenoid starts so so a little rough in the timing is off probably has that same mess in the tank
These Bull and Brick nose Fords are fastely becoming a popular build because they are the last of the cheap classic trucks. You can't even look at a Square body Chevy or a D-150 Dodge that worth building and not be upside down in it money wise for less than 8 grand and you can go out and Find these Bull and Brick noses all day long for 2500 or less and drive it home.
@@oldpath7357 Idk about that.... I grew a Mopar guy and the D-series, the classic ones anyway look better and that itty bitty Ford 302 aint touching them, even if the Dodge has a 318, but as they say "Yeah It's Got a Hemi" Even the new Ford Coyote aint touching an old school Hemi. The Ford's a good work truck and the parts are cheap, for a reason..... but that's about it. If I had the money I'd buy a D-150 but The Ford was cheap, that's why I bought it.
I was a mechanic back in the 60's and 70's. I don't miss it.
sho nuff bro.....I hate working on cars...LOL

I feel ya. A little at a time when life permits.

I like that year Ford truck I like the style of it o yeah I love you're music on there true country music
The toolbox and the bed rails must be factory or a major coincidence because my 90 is the same setup
Nah but they are a common brand and lots of folks used them late 80's and 90's.

Ohhh them tanks are a mess....but I dont like wrenching. LOL Glad I got mine running. I am about to get the brakes done then I'll be driving it.
Picking tomorrow a 1988 350 lariat dually sitting for 6 years , I hope my gas tanks will be in better shape than yours .
How much where these tanks?
they weren't all that bad...pumps and all i think was less than $250....
