Will it start? 1986 Ford F-250 6.9 idi diesel with major problems

[@brokenarrow2835]

Bought one in 1985 new $12,000 it was a work horse,the only thing it didn't have was the granny leg.

[@JTsBuildsandFields]

This one didn’t have granny gear either. T19 trans had higher first gear and T18 has the granny gear

[@tracywagers1399]

That truck is double cursed double jinxed and quadruple hexed to not want to start at all

1986 was the last year for those generation Ford F-series pickups & Broncos. 1980 was the first year for them & the medium dutys too which stayed in production up through 1999.

Yessir 1999 was the first year of the Super Duty’s, my brother has one of those, great trucks also I just am a fan of the obs trucks because they’re so simple and good lookin trucks

[@kevinrichards3288]

@@JTsBuildsandFields yes the super duty F-250 & 350s but the ones I was talking about are those models that look almost like a semi which have the same cab design as the one there in the video. They're the F-650 & 750 models.

Yessur I know what you’re talking about

@@JTsBuildsandFields also what I like are cabover semis which are rare use here in the USA nowadays unlike back in the 1980s & down when I saw them everyday. Good times. Today the USA is one out of a small number of countries that only has very little of them left. In the movie Terminator 2, I liked that black Freightliner tow one & I hated to see it get damaged & totaled. I also liked that International Transtar with the tanker trailer hooked up to it from the first Terminator movie too.

@@kevinrichards3288 yessur have you ever watched the movie duel? I know somebody who has the one of the original autocar trucks and the tanker trailer used in that movie
