This is a trip down memory lane. My dad had an old Ford flatbed with 4 on the floor too. In 1989 we drove it from Los Angeles to Mexico and left it there. It was driven very little since it was left there and a few years later when my grandfather passed away my dad needed the truck for taking material to the cemetery and we took his old Ford. It sounded exactly the way this one did, but it barely ran on the road. It was stolen a few years later and that was the end of that. I have a soft spot for these because my uncles had old Fords too and I took many a ride with them as a little kid. Good memories.

Hey Kevin i know what I'm about to tell you isn't a revival project but my stepfather's GMC Suburban wouldn't start but i thought its not the fuel pump because its working so i said to my self it's not getting the fuel to the engine & there might be air in the fuel line. So i undid the fuel line asked my step sad to see any fuel comes out & it did told my step dad to put the fuel line back & let my step dad turn the key & the truck turned over. Thanks to me my step dad got his truck back & going & no other high priced mechanic touched his truck but me! I started to fix cars since i was in high school & I'm still doing that today & i love it. 😄

Earlier this year I was given a Poulan chainsaw that didn't run. I ordered a replacement parts kit and replaced the carburetor, spark plug, fuel filter, hoses, primer bulb, and air filter. After watching so many videos since the F100 revival, I kinda felt like I was on an episode of Junkyard Digs doing the same things Kevin does. The best part... the chainsaw runs again! Thank you Kevin for the weekly tutorials and tips on how to bring an engine back to life. You describe it simply and make it seem easy enough that I could do it too. The laughs and Iowa references are great too since my in-laws are from NW Iowa. Keep em coming and I'll keep watching!

I'll never forget helping my coworker pull the intake off his 390, man that was weird when I realized the pushrods go through it. I thought, " Huh...that's weird." Love those old FE engines.

[@brianmason8400]

On GM 3.1 & 3.4L engines. The push rods don't go through the intake per day, BUT you do still have to remove them to properly replace lower intake gaskets that are notorious for leaking both coolant and oil....

[@mikeb988]

Man this is the best video I've ever watched I really hope people appreciate that someone took the time to make it thank you kevin

[@IronHorseGarage]

Awesome!!! I ALWAYS soak the the cylinders for about a week with Seafoam, Marvel's Mystery Oil, or even transmission fluid and turn the engine over by hand once a day before I ever attempt to fire it if it's something that's been sitting a long time. It could mean the difference between busting rings and totally rebuilding the engine and getting her running good. I'll even dump a little two cycle in the carburetor. She's gonna smoke like a train for a bit but it could save the engine!!!

[@KameraShy]

Amen

[@briang4470]

It really depends on what your working with and how valuable/rare the engine your working with is. If it's just a generic 305 chevy or 302 ford or a 318 Chrysler just send it and fire it up, what's the worst that could happen you blow a $50 engine lol. Now if it's something rare like a 427 big block chevy or something of equal rarity or value then yes, soak the engine, change the fluids and pre prime the oiling system before the first fire up but I think its overkill for your average run of the mill engine like a 305.

[@waynedavis7245]

Your right . That also helps to free up the rings too .

One day the car lost spark altogether and it was getting dark outside. Sure enough after popping the cap off I noticed the tab was completely flat. Not only did it get the car running again, it also fixed the idle issue! Keep the videos coming man.

Quick tip for gapping points. Keep a couple paper match books in your tool kit and glove box. Thickness of the match book is almost identical to the proper feeler gauge. My wife and I still run our 73, 460 swapped F 250, on a points system, as well as a couple of our motorcycles. We also keep an emory board, nail file, or an actual points file, in our toolboxes, the truck, and in the bikes.

Could be a good engine to do a review on liquid head gasket sealant. We used to sell bottles of the stuff to taxi drivers here in Australia who ran old falcons that loved to do head gaskets..they'd run a $10 bottle of that stuff through it instead of replacing the head gasket 😅

Shortly after I started driving it (when I was 16) I put it's third engine in it (360 cu inch). I used to get as low as 6 mpg with that truck (at close to 80 mph) and that is per imperial gallon (4.54 litres) not American (3.79 litres). Although that era of Ford truck is still my favourite, they definitely were not built to last (at least not the F-350 anyway).

My Old Man used to say about power accessories "No power steering, No power brakes, It's got power to the rear wheels" !!!! Love the poopy, since you had her Mook must have been at her real job.🐶🐶 Thank you for the step by step revival and don't forget the mantra "Sh_t Happens"

My business partner thinks (note the word THINKS) he's a mechanic and gets pissed when I double check his work!! I've found more stuff wrong that he did and that's worse!!

Hey man I still appreciate the advice on my old 78' f100 I purchased for 80$, shes still running like a top🤟🏽

[@ModCraftAsylumRt.]

Kevin: "start's up that F350 Engine Few times" Me: this is sounds like the Good Old F250 Engine from the old time's Kevin: "Show's Clip from The F250 Revival" Prb everyone: "Where is The F250 !?"

[@kerrylewis2581]

I think this was the perfect example of what you run into during a revival. As you said they are usually all parked for different reasons.

[@kademuncy4545]

Woah woah woah! With today’s society nothing can be assumed that engine must tell you if its an engine or you will piss off the little baby’s that voted left 🤣🤣
