What a great looking improvement.

Thanks Cliff and Duncan! I'm a happy camper today. Started with my truck being TOTM for March and ended with a great pick at the wreckers.

Now I am going to look for my own set of Lariat dash bezel

I'll have to do some digging, see if I have spares... That is the same dash bezels that came with the old man's 84. Doesn't have to be Lariat, his is just XLT.

Great, it really dresses up the interior. The ones I got today are in excellent condition. So glad I didn't buy the one I saw with all that mold!! I even got that tiny gas pedal spring so it doesn't flop around, I hated that.

They sure look better than black and gray. If you have them and are willing to sell them let me know in a pm.

I got a little done on my truck today. I got the red tape off the driver taillight lens then replaced both lenses with the good set I found at the wreckers. Also I included a picture of my Kenwood stereo and saved the factory radio no cut wires.

Wow, those lenses are like brand new. Looking good Clifff, nice change when you clean up someone else's "repairs?" Stereo insert looks like mine, nice clean install.

Thanks Roy a little here and there.

Well yesterday I got my multimeter out for the 2nd time to check and see how many volts my fuel pump relay was pulling and it wasn't good 11 volts. I replaced it with a new one and checked it again it was using 13 volts a big improvement.

I pulled the line off my fuel pressure regulator and smelled a lot of gas,and that looks like where a big problem I am having is. I called a friend that has a shop and does a lot of work on Fords, he explained how to do diagnostics on the fuel pressure regulator. Looks like it's bad.

That's an easy and cheap swap. If that can improve the way it's running, that's a big relief.

Yeah I will be glad once my truck is running properly. I am suppose to pick up a truck bed to replace my old one with.

 

[O'Rattlecan]

Right on! Did you find a pretty decent replacement?

Yes I did. Mine is all beat up and the new one will get stripped and ready for paint.
