Well, I did as suggested and bought a thermo gun thing. But before I did that, I stopped by a buds house and he had one and it was showing that...
Well, I put in a new thermostat, new coolant and still can't get a handle on the heat thing. Fan shrouds are on their way but I wonder if the...
One bump with a cherry on top
What temp is "hot"?
I think it can't hurt to find a shroud. In re: the puking thing, I can drive it (nervously) with the needle buried into the H and it doesn't puke...
Was this one of those "EVERYBODY knows how to do this; you so stoopid!" questions?
great... If it ain't one thing, it's like six or seven others.
Does anyone know: [IMG] How does the service brake cable attach to the handle? Bought a new set of cables and this is the one part I...
According to the factory gauge, it gets hot just sitting there at idle. I then went and rode with the wifey to see if it would get hot quicker...
uh.. noted, LOL :D
thanks!
y'all are wonderful. I live near LMC, so I use their parts catalog like a bible, but don't see a shroud made for the '59. I assume these are...
This f100 runs hot according to the stock temp gauge. Trying to figure somethings out and the neighbor thought the fan was pointing the wrong...
95? What tranny were you running with?
Hey Rusty, thanks for the tips. I'll give it a go and see how it works. Oh, and I've noticed while driving the truck at night (using GPS for...
nvm. I see it. Thanks 57fordor
It did come with a probe, but I wasn't expecting to use it. You wouldn't happen to have a pic, or a drawing of the location you're talking about...
Used the forum search for a couple of days to no avail: Bought a temp gauge and need to install it on my '59 F100 292 V8 but I don't have...
Thanks for the replies. I'm obviously grasping at straws and such. I'll research the blow by thing some more. Its not dumping a ton of smoke,...
you may be right. I checked, no leaks that I could find, but I am running rich at idle. This thing has a 2bbl carb (2100?) and I'm confused if...
I'm sitting here drinking a beer and had an epiphany.. Could it be a grounding issue? I know that sounds crazy, but I get the CRAZIEST shock...
oh, and if it matters, I have a 3 spd on the floor.
I figured it would be easier to start a new thread since I've been searching since 10 this morning and still can't find an answer.. so many posts!...
well? How did it go?
Did you ever figure this out?
That belongs on a T-shirt...
The fuel cut-off is a superb idea. I've done it on bikes; never thought to do it on the truck. I had the older fuel pump laying around in the...
Thanks for the replies. I checked the fuel pump and i'm thinking it is indeed cracked from over tightening (little bubbles of fuel appear after...
So I had a leak in the line from the tank (new) behind the seat to the stainless line (brand new) that feeds to the engine. I fixed that only to...
what's the oil capacity for the 292?
