This is a crazy one. Our 1998 Ford F150 might be the nicest truck we've every found abandoned in the woods, but that must have been for a good reason right? We can't wait to find out together!

Even though the truck didn't start, you succeeded in making my day a little brighter. I call that a win.
Thank you for the kindness. We truly appreciate that. Thanks for the comment and support.
Ah yes, the old "replace the starter before checking to see if the engine is locked up". LOL. Everybody says rebuild the engine but the easiest thing would be to find one of the other 3 million 97-03 F150 trucks that are still running. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks for the comment and support really appreciate that. Also glad you liked the video. Check out some of our other truck content.
Hey brother, im one of your long time subscribers. I wondered why they pulled the starter when I heard a definite clank against the flywheel teeth the first time they tried, knowing that the engine was seized
hammer the pistons, put break cleaner into the pistons or diesel and put a breaker bar with a 50 pound weight on the end and let it sit for a week and it will eventually unlock itself
Yeah that's totally a possibility honestly just not sure it is worth all that effort. Thanks for comment and support
@@JMRRebuilders well it could be, you wont cost you much other than time. than youd have a working engine without having to swap it
I have an '03, the milage issue is probably a bad solder joint on the ground for the little display. Its a common issue. the ground pins solder just needs to be reflowed or replaced
Thats cool man. Yeah this truck has deeper issues for sure. Thanks for comment and support.
It is amazing the power of water and humidity how it finds a way to sip true a lock tight engine.
Yeah it is rather unfortunate. Thanks for comment and support. Check out our other content
Love these old Ford i have one
Let's go. These Ole girls are sweet. Check out our other content. Thanks for comment and support
I liked Ryan’s Ford shirt at the beginning.
Where do you guys keep finding trucks in the woods?!
Enjoyed the video, what’s next for this truck?
Thanks bought it years ago and now can't find it. We keep getting blessed honestly. The lord keeps providing us with people who have them. We got a few more and even a chevy. Stay tuned. Thanks for comment and support
The mileage is because of a bad solder point on the back of the cluster circuit board, its super common and a really easy fix, just reflow the odometer pins. I have a 2002 so I know all about these things lol
Heck yeah I'm sure it something simple. Just not worth.the effort. Thanks for the comment and support
@@JMRRebuilders For sure! And yeah, its not really worth the effort because you have to take the interior apart (I've done it 3 times) but if you do ever want to there's a ton of videos about it, almost every 10th gen has the same issue
The odometer keeps cutting in and out on mine too.
Check the timing chain, get the other head off, remove the oil pan find the reason it won’t turn
Yeah def good points. At this point if we do anything we will be ripping the motor out and possibly putting a coyote back in its hole. Thanks for the comment and support.
My 99 went thru 3 5.4's before I gave up. Each of them had the oil pump fail.
Yeah seems like these years the motors and trucks just weren't that great at all. That really sucks, but gotta say love your persistence. Thanks for comment and support
@@JMRRebuilders I still love the 10th gen trucks, but I believe it was the first generation of the modular engines (2v) that were the major flaw. I'll get another one some day.
@nogarage_garage heck yeah brother
Whoop whoop!!
Thanks brother
Would love to see you save this truck. I haven't found a UA-cam channel that has restored one of these yet. I have a 2000 ford f150 with the 4.2. Has 230,000 miles on it. I have changed just about everything on it except the block. Its not fast and is used as my daily driver but it gets me from A to B.
Yeah, there isn't much interest in that time frame of the Ford trucks. That's awesome. You're still going great, job. Thanks for the comment and support.
Saw you guys rebuilding the 8 n tractor. I live
In Franklin and use to live in PTC.
Heck yeah that's awesome. Thanks for the support and comment
It could have been parked because of a bad transmission and 20 years of sitting caused rust in the bores from humidity...kinda sucks.
Thanks for comment and support. We believe it was parked cause of the heater core or overheating issue not sure exactly. However yes for sure the humidity combined with the coolant created a perfect environment for corrosion.
4.2 ford pretty notorious for blowing head gasket by #1 cylinder and gets coolant in the cylinder and hydronicing the piston bending a rod giving you a ticking sound.
Yeah thats some good feedback for sure. They are such a unique era of trucks. Thanks foe comment and support
Use a pry bar on flywheel when you have engine that stuck
That is actually not a bad idea. Gonna save that for next time thanks for comment and suggestion.
What size is the motor you have in the truck because i have a 2000 Ford f 150 with the 4.6 motor in it sir
It's the 4.2 ford 6 clyinder. You got a much better engine. Thanks for comment and support.
Nice boots!!!
You likey them don't ya
soak "everything" for several hrs, take out the battery, fill the coolant, change the alternator, starter,,change the spark plugs etc
Well that would have been an idea just didn't go that route since the motors really not worth it. Thanks for comment and support.
@@JMRRebuilders what did you guys end up doing ? did you just put a whole new engine and more? is there an update coming?
@@kevinkobayashi wr haven't decided yet. We weren't sure that many people like this truck so not sure we will do anything with it.
Put a crate motor in it
Yeah we thought bout that. Thanks for comment and support
You used the grab hold method to get the head and intake off
Heck yeah brother the trusted and true grab hold comes in clutch. Thanks for comment and support.
Why didn't they just put it in neutral and grab the motor and see if it spins over?
Def should have filmed that but simply forgot to film it. But it didn't change anything. Thanks for comment and support
I got a 01 308827 love it
That's so cool brother. Thanks for comment and support
Jennings motor sports gets engines that have been sitting for 80 years and locked up and rusted solid running no problem 😂
Well that's pretty awesome. Sounds like some great people. Thanks for comment and support
i love ford trucks i think yaw should pull the motor and rebuild it
Thanks for the comment. That is a great idea. Not sure what we will do yet.
I think i would think about rebuild it
Yeah we thought about it but it's the 4.2 v6. We are still considering what to do with it. So stay tuned. Thanks for comment and support
Stick a new or salvage motor in it
H9nestly not sure she worth it.
It's the starter
We thought that also stay tuned. Thanks for comment and support
Rebuild be cool
Yeah just a 6 clyinder not sure worth it. Thanks for the comment and support
What’s plan with it now?
No clue. Great question. Maybe let it sit in a field for 50 more years.
@@JMRRebuilders tell me the field so I can sneak the dash cover off lol
Bueno
The starter
Yeah stay tuned brother. Thanks for comment and support
what size of engine is it
It is the ford 4.2 v6. Not really an ideal engine to be honest. We appreciate the support and comment
He is a mechanic 🧰
I'm not so sure about that. Thanks for the comment and support
Just wondering what happened with The Turd ? If you restored it I'm sure it looks great and HOPEFULLY runs , it looked like it could be a nice truck, I had a 94 and I wish I still had it!
We actually haven't done anything with it. Still trying to figure that out. Thanks for comment and support
With the step side , id say Lightning clone , with two Cs lol
I'll tell you what help me decide what to do with mine. I have the exact same truck except it's red. I'm thinking about going white and building a wooden stake bed for it. Some white steelies and a red and blue pinstripe along the side going up the back of the cab. Or do I keep the step side lower it put it on some some black Harley-Davidson F-150 Wheels Rust-Oleum Ford blue tractor paint ? What do you think ?
Let's go. That's awesome. Would be neat for sure. With a coyote. Thanks for comment and support
Man I would do the Harley look for sure lower and even put Harley seats in it. But that's just me. Good luck
@@JMRRebuilders thanks , looks like I found me a Ford channel lol
Heck yeah brother. We do trucks really that's out thing but we do Fords cause well everyone down here owns Fords.
New engine
That is Def and option she is a sharp truck.
Wear you guys from just subbed
Hey thank you for that we appreciate the sub. We are from the south Atlanta area. How about you?
@@JMRRebuilders Florida
Just replace the engine and tranmission
Yeah not sure it's worth it. Thanks for comment and support
From my way guys i will throw that engine and put another one 😁
Love that. Good stuff. Thanks for the comment and support.
Replace engine with a used engine. The truck is worth it. You could rebuild the 4.2 V6 that it has, but why bother, when it may not be rebuildable due to a cracked block. Whoever abandoned that truck did so when it was only 8 years old, meaning it may have thrown a rod or they knew it had a cracked block. When you pull that engine out, go ahead and pull with the transmission still on it, because the idiot that drove it some 17 years ago probably destroyed that as well
That's not exactly a fair representation of the person who parked it. Thanks for comment and support
@@JMRRebuilders I can understand that your being on the same mental level as them is why you take it personal
@EarlGuyton425 yet here you are watching and commenting. That's the funny part.
@@JMRRebuilders Muted

Yeah no fun at all. Thanks for comment and support
Junkiest damn truck you could ever own and throw money into
Yeah they were some awful years for sure. Thanks for comment and support.
Ok why you say that a motor is a motor transmission is a transmission if you take care of it and do regular maintenance I know a 1998 Ford WinStar with over 400,000 km on it and is still running like a clock
