95 Ford

Looking for pic of your 96???

Do you have one?

All i have done to is put the distrubutor wires back on, back glass installed, cleaned it out and put the interior back together. Haven't even washed it. I think I'm going to pay this local mobile mechanic to get it running. Surely he knows a little about such a common engine.

That is a start, got to start somewhere. You will get it going. I bet it don’t need much.

Yeah I like the truck and am glad I got it.

New fan clutch, blower motor and blower resistor yesterday. ABS sensor ordered. It might never end!

I put in a new resistor and abs sensor in my 90 recently. The abs sensor was dorman I think and it shut off my ABS light for two weeks. Guess I'll have to get motorcraft brand next.

I ‘think’ OEM was Bosch. I ordered one even if it’s not OEM. Maybe a step up from Dorman, we’ll see

Here we go again. I pulled the bed to investigate what I thought was a leak on the front tank. Turns out it wasn’t leaking, it was over flowing. It has a bad mixing/selector valve and basically empties the rear tank into the front tank. There’s more to it than that but that’s the end result. Now I realize I didn’t need to pull the bed but it helped me figure out the issue.
In the end, this may have been the reason the truck was parked in the first place.

So does yours have a separate selector valve? I read after 90 that is handled with just the two fuel pumps and their inner workings. I don't think my 90 has a selector valve. But I don't know for sure

Those dual tanks were such a GREAT idea. So much better than a large single. Not more expensive, complicated or prone to problems at all..

You may be right. But, I’ve got two brand new pumps. I suppose the front one could be bad. It is a Chinese special after all
On the flip side, I didn’t find the valve on the frame. I can see where a piece of hose was spliced into the line and just assumed that’s where it used to be.
