Having a wood drying rack in the shop seems like a good idea. The dry air from the wood stove should accelerate the drying process (plus, out of the weather).

Am I the only one that heard the rattling when it started
@Shouse-life13 сағат бұрын
Nope. A lot of people heard it lol. When these trucks sit at auction for months without running the timing chain tensioners bleed off pressure. So when they start they rattle for a quick second until the oil pressure satisfies the tensioner pressure. I may have to put tensioners and chain guides in it before I sell it but my mechanic suggested an oil change and put so e Miles on it to see if the tensioners come back around. It’s common on the ecoboost. But if it doesn’t shut up I will fix it.

Rear cooled RVs are a bad idea. All the junk swirls around and plugs stuff up as you experienced. Probably a blessing that tank broke while you were at home. Imagine it letting go when you're 1000 miles from home. Ugh.
@Shouse-life13 сағат бұрын
It would have caught fire mysteriously on the side of the road lol. I agree with the rear cooling being dumb but it ran all the way through the mountains a few weeks ago in 100* weather and I just flat footed it on the big hills. Temp gauge never moved. The fuel gauge on the other hand moved alot. Oh well. It ran Great. It was worth the effort in the end.

You're smart to disconnect battery when welding and you're also placing the ground clamp very near where you're welding. Both good practices. I don't have first-hand experience, but have heard that you can damage computers even with the battery disconnected if you have the ground clamp at one end of vehicle and are welding at other end. Since it takes very little effort to disconnect battery and keep ground clamp close I do it just to be safe.

Man I live in northern Ontario and I've been driving a 2 wheel drive truck for the last 10 years I've never been stuck once I drive it 5 days a week to work As long as you got a decent set of tires on the back It makes it through the snow just fine.

Experienced people are capable of that. Have you met the people in this world lately lol. From a rebuilder standpoint there’s two trucks you don’t buy. 2wd or crew cab long boxes. They’re super difficult to sell.

Nice F150! I bought a new F150 XL STX 2x4 back in 2017. 2.7 Ecoboost. So far, so good. I've been reading and seeing a lot of stuff about problems with these Ecoboost engines as they age. In hindsight, I should have tried for an identical Truck but with the base 3.5 Naturally Aspirated. That's still 250 HP which would have been just fine. I've been hearing about Problems with the oil-pump mech.

It’s tough to decide what’s good anymore. I have the 5.0 in my 13 f150. Love the truck as long as I’m not towing heavy stuff. I havnt driven a 2.7 yet.

This is great work! Not only on the vehicle but also the camera setups and transitions. Thank you kindly for sharing your knowledge when doing repairs and explaining the reasoning; there's a very small number of people on KZbin that take the time to share the details and reasoning for each repair. You should keep doing this. Not only will you help a lot of individuals, but you're going to gain a following very fast with content like this. If you ultimately decide to sell, what would you take for it. If I were to purchase this, it would be going to Florida to replace a Jeep Cherokee that's been transformed into a mobile repair vehicle for families in need. Even with an upgraded suspension, when it's loaded down with all the tools, it takes every bit of power to get a trailer with an engine back to base to repair for donation vehicles. As far as obtaining the donation vehicles, locally, the rural town tow company helps, which has been amazing; however, anything out of state or a long distance, and I either borrow another parishioners truck when I can or I have to pass. Feel free to reach out if you decide to sell, as I'd certainly put it to use. I operate Flynnsgarage.com, and all of my information is on there to reach me. Thank you for your time, and God bless ya

Sounds about right. Back in the early 90s, I bought three 1 ton Ford chassis. When I looked at them, there was oil in the radiators. There was a guy standing around there, letting everyone know it like he was doing them a favor. I looked them over and it just didn’t lol right. It wasn’t milky like it should be. I bought all three and later found out that someone had poured oil in the radiator in an attempt them cheap.

Hey from accross the pond. We use a brain saver (From Snap on) across the battrey Terminals. it's just a cable with a box of gummins in the middle. We found, on older cars, that we would loose the pin numbers in the steereos ddisconecting the battery, so this was the best solution. Lovin the channel.

Oh forgot what I was going to say after I saw the Stang. Anyways yes always I repeat always disconnect the battery on vehicles 2000 on up before welding. It will mess up the computers if you don't. Cause because the ground is connected to the frame. When welding the electric welder it sparks sometimes somewhere on the frame. Won't see it cause of the brightness but it does.

So love that T-Top Mustang. Been trying to find 1. Found 2 4yrs ago they were Roller kits. They wouldn't come off 10.5k other 12k. I had 9.3k cash they wouldn't sell. So I found my 2nd favorite car with T-Tops. Firebird. I know I am still looking for a Stang with T-Tops. Wish they would come back out with T-Tops again.

We bought the 86 probably 10 years ago. One of those barn find deals. Paid 1500 for it. It was a mess. Completely disassembled and stripped the car to metal. Started all over. It’s been quite the headache but I’m gaining on it slowly. I see quite a few that are good price on the Facebook fox body pages. Keep looking. You’ll find it.

I love the F150 with the 5.0 BUT 2018 is when they shit the bed nothin good going forward. All plastic oil pan with a useless lego drain rubber came in 2020 a belt driven oil pump REALLY The 5.0 had balls and you just cut them off you created problems that were not there before. I will tooth and nail make my last of the built Ford Tough a 2017 last with overservice. Just waiting for the moaning and groaning of oil pumps losing drive from broken belts it is inevitable just wait and see.
