My son’s 1996 80 has had intermittent starting issues for a while. Turn the key and it cranks find]e sometime and then others it wouldn’t turn over. Lights were always on the dash if it cranked or not. I previously rebuilt the starter and wondered if something went sideways there but haven’t...
My sons 96 80 series had the check engine light come on. I got codes PO130 and PO133. So I replaced the O2 sensors with Densos. The old ones were pretty crusty and looked like they never had been replaced.
However, I still have those 2 codes and now I’m also getting PO171.
Thoughts on what...
My son’s wiper motor is frozen and my attempt to rebuild it didn’t rectify the problem. Hoping to find a used working one here that I can buy. Let me know if you have one to sell. Thanks!
My wife was driving my son's 80 when it was raining. Turned it off to run in a store, came back out and turned it on and the wipers are frozen in place. They don't respond at all to being turned on or off now.
I checked the fuse and it is still good. Thoughts on where to turn next? Did a search...
I need a distributor to drop in my son's 1996 80 series. The camshaft position sensor has gone bad so I want to get it replaced. Let me know if you have a working one that I can buy from you.
So my alternator is shot. I tried to get it rebuilt but the shop said it was beyond repair. So after shopping around I got a remanufactered one from Napa. I installed it and as I normally do when my 60 is cold I pulled out the choke.
It cranked right up and the voltage gauge on the dash read...
I’m troubleshooting my sons 96 80 series heater situation. I was getting no heat but after adjusting the HCV on the firewall I got heat.
It appears that the cable isn’t moving the switch on the HCV. I pulled the radio out and the glovebox out and can’t find where the cable attaches to the...
I have a set of 4 wheels and tires that I just removed from my 60 series. They slide right on. No spacers needed.
Tires have plenty of life left.
15 inch chrome rims.
Kumho 30 x 9.50 R15
Asking $250 for the set of 4.
I ordered a new suspension kit and steering dampener to upgrade my truck from the original suspension. I decided to tackle the steering dampener first since I only had a couple of hours today and thought it would be quick. However, I ran into a wall trying to removal it.
See pic. The dampener...
Looking for some advice on next steps. My AC fan blower trips the switch on all speeds now. It started only on high speed but now does on all speeds. I pulled the fuse box and felt the wire get hot before it tripped the circuit breaker so I don’t think the circuit breaker is bad. I think it is...
I can’t go anywhere and neither can my truck. It’s a 1986 60 series. I rebuilt the engine ~3000 miles ago. I loved the mechanical work and hate the electrical gremlin chasing.
So here’s what’s up. I turn the key and get nothing. I have 12.4 with my multi-meter on the battery. I checked and...
I’m hoping some mudsters can help me diagnosis a weird idle I’m getting.
Here’s the story...
I just rebuilt my 2F, the whole thing! Stabbed her back in and got the carb tuned by a pro.
I’ve noticed that when the engine is at idle is revs down and then back up. This especially happens when...
After months of work rebuilding my 2F I’m getting close to turning the key!!
I’ve heard different things about what I need to do before I crank her up. Everything from oil types to additives to a quick oil change, etc.
So what say you? What should I do to make sure that she gets off to a...
Mud- I’m putting the block off Plate between my intake and exhaust manifolds today.
I have an exhaust leak and the bushing on the side where the springs are out side of the manifold. So I need to tap that and block it off.
Does anyone know the right size tap and plug for that? Thanks!
I threw a bearing in my 86 60 series on Sunday. I just rebuilt the head <500 miles ago. I am thinking about a swap instead of rebuilding this now.
Let me know if you have one for sale. I’m located in Georgia.
Thanks!
I threw a bearing on my 60 on Sunday afternoon. Bummer ! I just rebuilt my head about 500 miles ago. ACC says it will cost $8000 for a total rebuild. No way can I afford that!
After talking with @BGarcia88FJ62 today I am thinking about swapping out with another 2F and putting my newly rebuilt...
