Wife’s 1984 60 series. Exhaust gasket was gone. Had some great help ripping into everything. Intake/exhaust was ground flat (hopefully). Tons of new parts and hardware gathered for re assembly. When the shop was separating the intake/exhaust…this connector didn’t survive. And it’s not in...

I PM'd Generic... but if you happen to stumble across it, please let me know

My dumb ass got too aggressive in sub zero temps trying to open my driver's side door. Broke the flippin door handle. 1993 Forest Green 80 series. Any help? eBay was currently nothing close. Didn't see anything in Parting Out.

Above is dash while idling. Reading across the terminals read 14.58V while running. RE: FOG/DEFOG fuse. Further inspection shows that fuse block had a hysterectomy. No female parts in there. Fuse falls out. How important is this? Fixable ?

Yes...got too excited. Fuses in those positions. Not gauges. I will goof with them more after I enjoy it being running. Pull and replace, or reinstall. I need a new handful of fuses. Simply got multi pack. Need some extra 10s, 20s. Bought a pack of 15s. I am not all about having extra...

Houston...we have Ignition! Fired right up in just a few seconds. Idling fine at 900ish immediately. It's cold here. Maybe 32F. Gonna let it run and idle for a bit. Recheck battery. Was 12.22V. If I didn't smoke an alternator I should see battery voltage improve like normal, Yes?

Update: Friday morning Went out to back track and perform more the diagnostic test as outlined prior. As I was checking Voltage for all of the dash panel fuses and taking notes....I pulled the GAUGE fuse. The new 10A. I was getting 11.82 on one side....and it was reading .397 on the other...

Am I frustrating everyone? I appologize. Just a quick alibi: Was so excited to join and start working on a rig. Some of my first questions were going to be- How to download the FSMs. I've read the files are huge and can be frustrating? Was going to ask about hard copies. Like a Chilton...

Yes key was On. Will complete the above after work

All the wires you see behind it

Ground Point. You'd have to be more specific. Never heard the term on needed one prior. A google search led me to some Ford ground points. Removing the kick panel didn't reveal anything glaringly obvious as a Ground Point. See following photo for my best guess. IF....that was correct Key...

RE: Replaced fuses. I ADDED fuses to the inner fender wheel last night. There were none in that fuse block that were faulty. Replaced a functionging micro 7.5A fuse with appropriate physically sized 7.5. And corrected the other 7.5A to 10A as suggested. All work. The dash fuse panel....I...

FYI I've not dicked with anything in the kick panel fuse area yet. Will see tonight
