Oh, and I rebuilt the carb too which took care of the starting. It fired right up every time :)

Man... I really wish I the timing on this post was a day or two earlier :( Someone came and took it away yesterday morning. It was a good start to a nice rig and I took a hit with the price I sold it for. I could have probably wracked your brain for more info. If you don't mind I may pass...

Believe me, I've been trying. If it wasn't the only wheels I have at the moment I'd have much better luck with that. All in all she's been a pretty good sport about it but getting really tired of carting my arse around everyday... apparently she was under the impression I'd be tearing around...

Alright, I've had this truck for about a month. Wife is already giving me a major headache about why I'm not driving it and still dumping money into it. I really don't want to get rid of it but thought I'd see if there is any interest just to appease the wife. :mad: So if anyone is...

What have you all found to be the bast way to clean 40+ years of grease and crud out of an engine compartment? Any method or product that works better or creates less mess than others?

Thanks for the info.. I was just kind of taking a guess on the point gap. averages of other things I've read about points.. close though ;)

I first want to apologize for these questions. They are things that are probably old hat to most of you, but bear with me... I'm learning here :-[ The PO disconnected the fuel tank. He said they did this do try and troubleshoot a problem. They installed this little electric fuel pump and...

These are a couple pictures of a concept from 2004, another article about the same concept said it was slated tor a 2009 release.. perhaps it's the same one but the was pushed back to 2011? article here: http://www.therangerstation.com/resources/Ford_Bronco_Concept.htm

Looking for an exhaust manifold for a '66 - 170 - 6 Cylinder. Toms has them for $65 bucks used, but if you happen to have one laying around and would rather have a few bucks in your pocket than that old manifold let me know! Also may be interested in other 66 parts. Window cranks, inside...

I'd love to... got a few bucks I can borrow? I'll pay you back I swear %) ;D

Thanks for the help guys.. I'm kind of stupid when it comes to this carb stuff. So, the vacuum advance on the dist... It's all hooked up and all that. But how do I know if it's advancing like it's supposed to.. or that the "springs" aren't worn out? Does it actually physically do something I...

Ok, so I rebuilt and cleaned the stock carb today. Didn't seem to make much difference with the problem I'm having? She starts and runs alright with just a touch of choke on, but push the choke all the way in and spit-sputter-dead. Any idea what would cause this? Not sure if this matters...

Any advice on a low profile air cleaner set up that will fit under the hood of a 66 with an Autolite 1100 single barrel carb. The PO had this little guy on there (about 5" diameter) that is to high and hits the hood it crunched down the mounting on the carb.. So he just took it off and was...

Any idea what this would cost to ship to 48855?

thanks for the input, that's kind of what I figured. I don't mind pitching in the couple bucks to be a member and have the ability to upload pictures either. Just seems like not many people post pictures which are always fun to look at and helpful when trying to figure out how to do things...

newly mine :)

I was just wondering... would it be beneficial for anyone on these threads to have a place to host pictures? I know there's all kinds of sites like photobucket and flicker, but would anyone appreciate a hosting site dedicated directly to this whole EB thing? I don't want to distract from...

Thanks fellas, that's kind of what I thought. Just didn't want to mess anything up and have to do it all over again.. Man I'm having fun with this thing in an unheated garage even! :)

So the guy I bought this truck from said "these things just don't have heaters". So obviously I had to investigate being that it's about 18 degrees out right now.. Proceeded to tear into the heating system. I found a whole new meaning to the words squirrel cage :o the whole things was...

Honestly I haven't gotten far enough to think about my long term plans for it... I just knew it was a good find and couldn't pass it up :) My initial thought is just to get it running well enough to get me around and fix/rebuild things as time and cash permit.. I'm going to hit up bronco...
