As a ford Mechanic, the Oil pressure sensors in them are fake, They are pretty much just a sensor that tells you if it has oil or not, and its not even accurate if the sensor is old and dirty. Ford did that from the late 80s to around 2015, and them 2008 and newer Econoline vans, you don't need oil in the system for the gauge to even work, them vans they are just in one position all the time when they run. You can see the gauge doesn't move at all with any sort of throttle response, but does respond quite a lot with a scan tool if the tool can read oil pressure from the computer.

Good potential, with a little tlc, to make a good useable truck. I have bought, repaired, and sold vehicles for a little over 50 years. An ignition lock cylinder replacement real simple, much easier than changing steering column. Most any Ford product from 1970s to early 2000s will interchange. Rough idle due to ECM relearning idle, will improve more with driving. Congrats on your KZbin success. Keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down.

I wouldn't worry about the distributor pickup coil until it reproduces the problem. Both the ECM and the pickup coil are much less likely to be problems on these old trucks than other issues with old wiring and sensors. I had a "no spark" condition on my 93 F150, and upon careful inspection and checking with the voltmeter, I found that the 2-wire connector that plugs into the coil had a crack on the inside, and the wire wasn't making a good connection. Replaced the connector, and it was good to go. I didn't expect the truck to run great right after the temp sensor replacement. It takes a couple drive cycles for the computer to adjust to the new numbers it's getting. So you have to drive it a couple times, as you did. I think you got a pretty good deal. Those trucks are easy to work on, and if the transmission holds up, it would be hard to replace it for under 2k. That engine can do alot more miles as long as you have good oil pressure. Thoroughly enjoyed the video!

99% sure you have a failing pickup coil. It should cost you around $30 for an aftermarket replacement. Changing it requires removal of the distributor. Once out, pop out the pins holding the gear drive & bushing and remove the shaft from the housing. You will then have access to it.

Chrome bumpers came off a Bronco, interior seat & bits off an Eddie Bauer, chrome grille off another truck, KYB shocks off another Bronco, wheels like those...it was an awesome truck for under $2k all-in. I did service it completely, put on some 7" round LED amber foglights, head unit & speakers, poly bushings & end links on the swaybars, ball joints & strut rod bushings. Drove it 2+ years & sold it for $4250. I love that era of Ford F-series

Randy I had a 95 F150 with the exact 351 in it. You are correct with your assumption, and you are going to need to replace the entire distributor as I did. Mine suffered from the exact symptoms you are currently dealing with. Now you could try the old school remedy for the pick up within the distributor being dirty by spraying brake cleaner or contact cleaner down in the distributor. Depending on whatever state yours is in it could change nothing or you could get another 60000 miles out of it.

You don't need a new steering column. Just a new lock. Get a replacement lock from 1A Auto or ebay or Amazon. Then locate the lock pin under the column (it is in a hole in the underside of the shroud next to the ignition). Take your screw driver and turn the ignition on to run. Push pin in and pull the lock out. Now because the lock part with the part the you turn is gone, you will have to shove something into the rest of the lock in order to pull it put. Once you remove the rest of the lock then you can place the new lock assembly in (Make sure the new lock is turned to the on position). Once it is in then you are good to go. Pretty much a 5 or 10 min job. You don't even need to remove the shroud to replace it. I think you should put some money into this truck. You don't see many of this era F150 in such good shape. I think you underpaid as a truck like that in the MD/VA/DC/PA is a $2500 or $3000 truck all day.

On the ignition, I think if you take off the plastic you can find it can be removed and replaced. Last f150 I had that had the same problem, I replaced the distributor and it fixed it. Also remember you have two gas tanks. Hit the switch and see if the other tank has gas. The front tank is smaller than the rear if I remember correctly.

My second 1979 Lincoln had this problem in the 90s, and is responsible for me deciding to learn to work on my own cars. It was the distributor pickup, but the shop I took it to misdiagnosed the module and ripped me off while I was on welfare. The car would just randomly refuse to start for hours on end. A shade tree mechanic diagnosed it in 10 minutes in a parts store parking lot, and I just thought, "ok, I gotta learn how to do what he did."

Randy sir, I think the trans converter was replaced and then whoever did it tried to start it and it didn’t start and they said f&$k it after that and gave up because of the mileage on it. That body and frame are incredibly rust free for a truck that age and that many miles. You didn’t overpay at all for it. You do your thing under the hood and get the ignition and oil pressure gauge fixed, oh and check the exhaust and brother you will make bank and then some. Truck is a classic and I wasn’t expecting the 5.8L under there either, bonus!!! You have a winner. As you always say Randy, mileage doesn’t scare me either. I wanna see one more video and then the finished product. Get that mobile detail company out there before it gets to cold and it will look awesome in and out!!!

ive got one of these square bodies, a 1992 supercab. it is a real good truck, looks good and runs good, to have around for the occasional errands. having this truck has saved me cash and time for doing alot of things and all in i have about 2300 into it. all one color, have had several offers in the 3 to 4 k range for it. it beats the heck out of having a truck payment of 600 per month plus another 100 a month for insurance, when its not your primary vehicle. no need for an expensive truck to haul crap around with, mulch, motorcycle, kayaks, quad, appliances, and just about anything else. you got a fine truck for a real good price, put 200 into it for the column, the dash panel, panel is 50 bucks, the column part is 35 bucks and the rest for a good interior steam cleaning and you can double your money or have a great errands rig to use around town.

Check the radiator! Trans fluid went somewhere. Don't know about the HEI pickup but I would lean towards that. Check the grounds. Check the main ground from engine to body and the ground for the ECM. Don't know if the oil pressure gauge has anything to do with it but it's obviously disconnected. I got a buddy that put over 500k miles on his F150 before the trans blew up. I have a 97 Chevy Silverado with 320k just rebuilt the trans last year. I'm just going to keep driving it because shit have you seen car prices lately!!

I have a short bed version of that truck in my yard now. 5.8 liter! I need to get it back on the road…. And you should be able to replace the ignition easily enough and have new keys.

in all my years of experience ive seen the pickup in the trucks come back to life when pulling the Spout jumper, once the engine fires over the electrical field is restored and causes the pickup to come back to life, id replace the distributor for sure, ScannerDanner does a video on these trucks and their weak ignition systems

That metal piece in the cab is to the trans cross member, theres one on each end of it to tie it to the top of the frame. Normally they are left off due to it being a pain to put them back on. I left mine off when I changed out the trans.

Good job on getting it running. I am sure many others would give up on it. My own thoughts would be to: check the fluids, basic clean & get the ignition fixed.

@@edwardkamenar1493 It's really easy. Just learn what you need to for the task at hand and no more. Eventually you will see enough experience to know a lot more. I was working on my house electrical replacing 60 years old wiring when I was 19. I had to because nobody else would do it without wanting 5 figures $$$ and the house might have burned down if I didn't. Learned more electrical by repairing various power tools I bought as junk. Eventually I will tackle a car. haha

It's not the actual computer on these that go out. It's 3 caps on the board that start leaking. It's a good idea to change them out even if they haven't began leaking. It's easy to do.

For the ignition switch problem just add a push start button system..it’s about $50 on Amazon and the button can cover the broken ignition switch

Truck is in remarkable shape for its age, my guess is it was stolen from an elderly person who did not haul with it and may have even been its only owner. Its worth fixing the ignition and having the detail guys go through it in and out. Running and driving and looking pretty that's a $3500 truck in my neck of the woods at least easy as those older style Fords are getting more sought after and we are in rust country here in Missouri so most of them of that age are buckets around here,. I think you may realize a small profit at least sending it back to Copart.
