None of mine have been started this year and until I take one out for a drive, are in hibernation... The Fairlane last ran early in Dec......
In case you don't know, the Fox body oil pan isn't going to fit Mav/Comet chassis. You'll have to drill or replace timing cover for front dipstick...
That looks like mid '60s Falcon, Fairlane, Comet steering. Maverick/Comet has better steering linkage configuration.
The 2dr parts have different numbers, what the actual difference is I have no Idea. [ATTACH] ,
Mill .035 off the 289 pistons & go for it. Yeah that'd probably require balancing. The flat top, 5.0 HO LSC engine in the T-Bird had the pistons...
OMG!!! You mean I waited till Dec 30 to screw up a otherwise perfect year??? How was compression reduced in the '72/'73 models?
What's the casting date on the block? Have partial VIN stamped into pad behind intake? Engine assembly date stamped into LF of block where...
Assuming power at driver side of radiator, I'd probably splice in another wire for remainder of run to solenoid..
With two main bearings heavily into copper, I'd say crank is out of round or block is warped. With #4 rod bearing worn, something is wrong. A oil...
Looks like you'll have to do some diggin'. Voltage from red/blue is supposed to travel to neutral safety, apparently getting lost somewhere. Is...
Ahhh, the crescent connector is signal/brake lights. There is a orange/blue in that one. The ign sw has a rectangular plug, similar to one with...
Loops are usually a bypass, used with a std transmission. That may have been added to yours, looks like a bunch of claw marks on the connector....
With ign in start should have power on the two outer wires. This assumes it's in park or neutral. Apparently you are not getting power to neutral...
Probably.. Move dist one tooth opposite of rotation...
I once owned a '68 Cougar, just like this one(note fender badge). Yeah I cry :( every time I think about selling it. [ATTACH]
At column connector you should be checking for voltage on red/blue wire when in start position. For column automatic, voltage should route to...
There are only three bulbs used for cluster illumination, not nearly enough, all are dim.
Now check the red/blue wire at connector, where it exits column(remains connected, pierce insulation on harness wiring with a pin). If there is...
Nope. Circuit is power to/from ign switch, through neutral safety sw(column automatic). From there, bulkhead connector, to the S post on...
Then it probably is. Rotate to TDC, mark dist position. Pull dist and rotate engine one turn back to TDC, reinstall dist...
Separate names with a comma.
