88'efi--p.s.FORGOT TO MENTION--California Emissions model!!

I just bought a motorhome with an EFI 460,1988. Runs GOOOOD! However, it barely passed idle HC. 289 with 300 allowable. When it idles it acts like a stuck choke,idle slows and gets rough. I'm basicly EFI challenged,I THINK it's a mass air system. I dont know how to pull codes or anything. Can...

Four Hours!?I spent more time than that scraping grime&dirt !! :idea:

I found this thread late. Hope all is well. I have 5 kids and understand COMPLETELY! I'll say a little prayer for you and yours just for good measure!

Wasn't GM's fourbarrel a quadrabog?,or was it quadrajunk?

Being a Mopar boy,why not leave it alone? If you can get a good setup on a dualpoint Dodge,that Ford is easy!

C/S??Camper Specials go back to '68 or more. I don't think they were done in 1/2 tons though,EVERY one I've seen is 3/4 or 1ton. That steering wheel don't look like '70 either.

Don't give up yet!Have you checked the line that comes from the transmission modulator to the back of the intake manifold? A 390 in 69 should be hooked to a C6 trans, and when they sit the diaphram in the modulator gets hard. When you fire it up and drive they will suck ATF through the...

No problem,I've been around this stuff my entire life! My father is a retired automotive mechanic who owned his own shop. When business would slow down over the holidays,he'd pick up a "project" to build and sell. I've helped with collision repair on a lot of stuff. Step One is to determine...

Same boatI've got the same thing going on with my old girl. This is how to get all the answers. 1. Get a 4ft level, a floor jack and a tape measure. 2. Park on level,flat concrete. 3. Pick a point on your frame rails as far rearward as possible and measure both left and right from bottom of...

Cast iron FE Intakes/in truckDon,t be a hero and try sitting one in place by yourself. Yes, you can be all manly and grunt one in. Good chance of front/rear oil leaks . Just use the cherrypicker or a good friend's help. You'll get better results,faster, with less testicular trauma!

Can any of the parts guys tell me if a '84 F350,351W,4spd trans is a NP435? I'm hoping for a direct swap for my T18 in my '70 F250CS,360FE. My T18 is worn out at the shifter pivot area. Are the speedo hookups,bolt patterns,input/outputs the same? OR....Should I put a new top&stick in theT18? Any...

Hey JuddSound like it just my be one of those junkers that "aint quite right". I'll take 'er of your hands for twice what you paid since i'm such a nice guy. Lets see...2xfree=?? seriously, Around Tucson way, Any old rolling heaver 3/4 ton truck goes for $1500.00. If your motors solid, you...

thoughts&prayers,losing parents is HARD, Be strong when you can for those that can't.

Papers, We doan need no steenkin papers.But it's cool if you get something with your truck. I bought my '70 recently and was amazed to find the factory build sheet behind the springs in the seatback! If you are into keeping an all original truck, finding your original build specs is hard on a...

RE: Belly up Bomber.Just a guess, but an educated one. If everything was lovely before and now you find no spark, it,s probably the ignition box on your fenderwell. cheap, easy fix!!

Hippity-hopGet under the truck and see if you can push the carrier bearing up and down. Thats the joint area where the front half of the driveshaft meets the rear half. play in the rubber around this bearing will cause your hopping. Those old "granny" boxes usually lose the grind noise with a...

'eer we gooo....I will proudly carbon date myself with this. Proud Ford Fossil that I am, I'm a fan of a few motors for a few reasons. My father worked on the old Ohio State Patrol cars when they ran Galaxys with 427's. He also had one of his own that he raced. FE motors are pretty bulletproof...

Ha Ha HeSeriously, If you like what you're driving now, Have you had a chance to go offroad with one of the old67-72 4x4's, Anything with an FE or even a 300/6? If you can afford to feed them,they are amazing offroad!

Ha!BUSTED! JAP CRAP. You just lost ragging rites!!! We'll cut you some slack and write of the Toy to "misspent youth".

True blue?Skank, While were all throwing stones, How many Fords do you own? How many have you owned? I'll take the hit for my 2 Mopars, but I bet I'v got you beat on shear tonnage. I've got lots of Blue Oval iron around here!

closet...Thank you for coming clean. You have given me the courage to speak of my shame also. Yes, It's true that I own 1 '84 E250,1 '93 E150conv,1 '83 F350,and a '70 F250cs. Much to my shame you can find a Chrysler minivan AND a JEEP in my driveway.

UGLY ! gotta go.

Mosely,8mo.

I can fix it?

minor damage

Bone stock!

No PS,no PB,1/2 the AC
