Thank You NFL freak... I was looking at the 2181 intake and well you seem to be a wealth of information and just confirmed what I was thinking.Thanks for the Kokua!!!

Thanks and Yes it helps alot cause I'm real short and have a hard time reaching for stuff

I don't remember that but I just looked again and damn insert foot into mouth. OK so I have the 2bbl carb and am looking at a 4bbl carb with a matching intake.I had a weird set-up in my last project. 64 Ranchero with a 302 dual holly 4bbl carb with high rise intake but the intake wasn't a...

Thought that I should throw this up in here.... Nothing special just an 85 ford f150 351W 4X4 for work and some play.

Ok I got my truck running but found another problem... I have a hole in my intake manifold and it was leaking coolant. Plugged it with JB weld for now but I am looking for a replacement intake and don't really expect the patch job to hold for too long. I have found a few stock ones from the...

OK so, I'm in something deep... There is more problems with the Truck. I blew the main fuse and something else when I tried to start it after running to a job site. I replaced the main fuse and have power to the cab. There is a loose wire somewhere on the fuse panel... Can't find it now but I...

I think your both right.The starter was bad and the timing is still affecting how the truck starts. The truck starts right up perfect from a cold start but lags a little still after the warm up. Sometimes starts right up but a few times it still turns slow (Like battery is dying) but the new...

I have already replaced most of the wiring: Battery to relay/relay to starter/and main ground.The battery is really new and have I've charged it just to make sure. And plus the truck doesn't have headers yet! Thanks for the input.I'll probably be able to swap it out tonight if I can get...

Ya, I picked one up today on my way to work and its was only 63 plus another 22 for da core charge. Not to bad but really. Many Mahalo's (Thanks) for the kokua (Help)

So I tried messing with the timing. I couldn't even get the truck to turn. Just a clunck from the starter. After bumb starting it I was able to fine tune the timing and think that I almost spot on.I swear its not the timing because it wont even turn over once. Plus my ground and wire from my...

Ok, I'll double check the timing. Now is it going to be better to do this when the truck is warming up or already warm? I have noticed that the truck runs a little rough when warming up but purrs pretty nice after a few minutes running.If it is the timing how come when I try to start it after...

I would think that the truck would have more trouble starting from a cold start if the timing was off. I know that timing was a lot to do with everything but why would it sound like the battery is dead when I try to start it. I think the heat soak sounds like it but please I'm here for the help...

Ya, thats what I thought that I should swap those, alittle low on cash and I didn't want to poke and hope.

So, I check the connections, they looked good but I gave them a good clean anyway.still does the same thing, but sounded a little stronger when I cold started it. Seems like every little thing I have done has given a little more juice when I cold start it but still lags and sounds like its...

Nope, no headers. I saw what you said in another post about heat soak. Good info thanks,

Aloha from Hawaii,new here and I wanted to say aloha and what a nice place this is here.I just bought a 85 F-150 that has a little problem starting after warming up. The Truck Cold starts fine but after running a while it wont start until its cooled down. When I try to start it, it sounds...
