Переглядів 893 роки тому
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
Переглядів 2,7 тис.3 роки тому
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...

    Is it possible to add a lumbar support to a 2011 Ford Escape heated seat that currently does not have a lumbar support? Not necessarily an electric one, of course if possible that would be nice. Would it have been easier to work on had you raised/tilted the seat upwards towards the wheel to give you more access to the back? Tip- would be beneficial to those/me who are HOH, if you wore a mic. CC doesnt always translate word/word, because the AI software that does the translation gas to also hear what is being said.

    Mine is going on 20 or more years old. Beautiful machine. Bought one for my workplace too. But starting it is like dealing with a woman. You never know what you are going to get! Sometimes spits gas out the exhaust on trying to start. I always get it to start. But one push of the bulb, maybe five? Choke on? Choke off? Hold throttle wide open? Then let's talk about winding the string. LOL😂

      an impact is going to be your best bet. If you don't have one, you should be able to grab onto a shaft or the clutch basket or something with a wrench. It might be a little harder but that is what you will have to do without an impact.

    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.

    No need to cut. Put a bottle jack under the stud of the joint. Lift the right side of truck off ground a bit and hit the housing for the joint. Use the trucks weight to your advantage. I work at a ford dealership and this is my method!

      ​@@endtables hey! Question! My 2012 F250 superduty hits the frame bumps HARD. 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.
