O.K ; back again with a more clear train of thought. We could not get the boys together today,looks like the week-end at the earliest,anyway to help as much as possible here's what I know for a fact so for. Fact #1; 6cyl.deisel,marked Ford Power Products. England. Fact #2 Block looks like the...

"JOE DIRT" just got back and the chicken wings are cold and they suck. Don't know what I'm going to do with him. The Cinncinati Reds were in town and I was on the mound,had 2 men on base because my hung-over second baseman let a grounder slide between his legs and an outfeilder who shall remain...

What the h*ll is a 4bt and do I really need to know ? Any way ya'll chill out on thr pictures,their coming and get some of my Hooter girls to pose with the "Bitch",maybe even put some grease on their faces and a wrench in their hand. I'm no photographer I'll get a good one (might even make a...

O.K I'm back. Me and my personal " JOE DIRT " finally got all the crashers out and sent home to their loved ones in one piece with my ears burning from be accused of being a bad influance (I'm Not) from their female loves. Anyhow, fired "bad bitch" up again and let her idle and checked...

Just had a few beers for breakfast and still sore as h*ll. when I recover from yesterday I'll go out to the shop and see what all we screwed up. Yall dont go to asking detailed tech. questions cause I'm not cert. mechanic, do know my way around older type motors without computers , but certainly...

Me and 4 freinds coming and going along with 6 cases beer and 5th J.D had swap and running in 9 hrs flat. All kinds of pesky problems but nothing a few beers could not fix. Snatching and installing was a peice of cake. The hardest part I think was routing new metal fuel line under and around...

The engine was for a high-clearance row crop sprayer. I'll start snatching the gas burner out today,really dont see any problems other than maybe rpm's will be different. Might even install a snorkle like the Hummer. I know the exhaust and fuel tank will have to be changed but other than that...

I just puchased 70 bronco 6 cyl.,3 spd. in pretty good condtion and also have a 6 cyl. FORD industrial deisel engine (new in the crate) that I purchase for a peice of farm equipment that I no longer own. The engine is identical to the gas burner ,engine mounts, lenght,and looks like a simple...

I once owned a 66 Ford Galaxy 500 , 2 dr. with bucket seats and the wheel did not tilt but if you pushed the gear lever past PARK the whole column would slide to the passenger side. Made getting in and out easier for large people I assume ??

If my memory is right you pushed the turn signal lever towards the dash and the column moves up or down.I had a 79 p/u and i believe thats the method.

Great!!! Got her done; Yep plenty harness to drop down and access. Yall are great,really!! Had to grunt very little and even surprised the old lady with no cussing which is unusual for me. Again many thanks, P.S Did remove the steering wheel cover plate (able to see what my hand was doing)...

Thanks partner; thats what I wanted to hear. If yall ever want to know where to hide the vaseline to throw a spit ball I'll let you know the secret. Really appreciate the help from you guys and if doesn't work I'll burn the mutha. (joking) Love it to much!!

So what you guys are saying is that my underdash a/c as stated in my first post will not interfere, that the wires are long enough that it won't be a problem and that I can see what I'm doing??

Yea Nicky,you must be one of those that writes repair manuels. Have learned they dont tell all the S*** that one needs to know. Not trying to be a smartass but rather find out up front rather than screw something up big time. Smartness comes with age and experince which I have both.It doesn't...

O.K ; got that part down , already had the knob/stem out. The wiring disconnect is what got me chicken s**t. Its just I'd like to know what I'm facing as for as the wiring plug and doing it one handed by feel. Everything else I can pretty well handle with a few choice words.

Thanks Ryan; I take it from what you said, that there is plenty of slack in the wiring and unpluging is fairly easy. Is it just one plug to the switch. I ask because it sure felt like more than one and thats what made me hesitate. Also does the plug have side locks or can I just pull straight...

Am planning to replace my headlight switch this weekend and already tried out reaching the button to release the pull knob, that part is doable. My main question is do I remove the wiring before or after removing from dash. It is a tight fit and I know either way is going to be tough as I have a...

Whoa boy; I just got onto this long story and find it strange. Yes exotic things can happen in real life but the chances are better of being set up are far greater. What has happened is Don has fell into a scam where mother -daughter set up on the daughter being broke down with the assist of a...

Man, I saw your header and thought theres a dude with some serious money and not worried about OPEC and MPG. Was gonna see if you wanted to make it 5 until I saw your post.( A little disappointed )already making vacation plans with your money. They look great! thanks for sharing.

I had installed 2 days after buying my 72 in July,1972, an after-market a/c brand ( Clardy Customatic Cool-Car Jet Star ) because it gets hot and humid in Georgia (Atlanta)from May-Sept. Never had a major problem with it,only recharged 2-3 times and the fan switch 3 yrs ago. it cools as good or...
