I got mine several months ago for free because it didn't run at all. It now is running. It is hard to find classified ads for that era with same condition. I found them on eBay going for around $2000 but wasn't sure if that was a fair assessment for what I have in this area.

I was wondering how much my dentside is worth. I am thinking about putting it up on the market soon and wanted a rough idea of how much I can get out of it. It is just a lot more than I had bargained for with being a full time student and working 50 hours a week. It is a 1978 F-250 with 4WD and...

Ok I think I got it going now. I think the part is called an accelerator pump. It was sticking and I got it moving a little more freely and it is running fine now. I will probably replace it when I get a chance. Thanks for all the help.

Well it had been sitting in the garage with flat tires and junk all over it for 12 years and all I did to it was put air in the tires and cleaned out the fuel lines as well as got a new fuel pump. After it stopped working on me (could be because I wasn't starting it properly) I decided to change...

I usually don't pump the gas much in the car if at all. Earlier this week it seemed like it was running fine and would fire up just like my fuel injected car. Should I be giving it more gas? I am not smelling the fuel like it is flooded so I don't think that is the issue. Is it possible fuel...

So I haven't gotten a chance to get to your suggestions. I am having problems with getting it to start now. I can get it running with putting starter fluid in and it will struggle to run at first. After I get it going for a bit and warm it up it turns on and off fine.

I give it a couple minutes to want up and it dies when I hit the accelerator almost instantaneously when in gear.

Ok. So I am a little new to older vehicles. My truck is a 1978 F-250 with a 351M in it. It has the two barrel carburetor in it with an automatic choke. I don't feel that the choke is working properly. After switching into drive while being cold it tends to die on me. I haven't had the...

I have to say I love the wheels on it as well. I am undecided on the tire size. I am not sure if I want to lift and upgrade to bigger tires or keep stock. Right now I have about $100 invested in it as it was my father in laws truck that has been sitting in his garage for 10 years and he offered...

Yeah it has a little rust at cab corners and around rear wheel wells but not bad. I still need a tailgate, passenger door, and bench seat to make it a little more usable for now. I plan on trying to clean out the motor a bit, re-paint it, and then just do little odds and ends stuff along the way...

Hey. I am new here. I thought I would just say hi and I am sure I will be on often for suggestions for my truck. I have a 1978 F-250 with a 351M in it. I just got it this week and am excited to start the restoration process. Any suggestions on what I should do to it are always welcome. It is...
