    Bearing On It's Way Out?

    Just this last week I noticed that in 3rd gear(T19), between 1800-2300rpm, I hear something that sounds a lot like a mouse's feet running across a bare floor, if that makes sense. It started out just an occasional "chirp", but now it does it everytime I'm in 3rd. Someone said it might be a...

    1974 F350 CC/LB

    Passing through Cut-N-Shoot today, I passed a body shop with this litttle gem. I went back for a better look, but unfortunately the shop was closed. Anyway, it's a 74 with a 460 and I think it was an auto (forgot to look :dunno ). Called the number and the guy said he wants $4500. It's a...

    91 G20

    My dad has a :puke:91 G20 Van:puke: that's been giving him fits for some time, and now he's come down to visit and he's not sure he'll make it back home. It's got a TBI 350 with a nasty surge at idle. They've chased down other problems, and to date it has a complete new distributor, plugs...

    Not Dead Yet...

    Needing help with my girlfriend's 97 Powerstroke. It idles really rough when you start it (like it's stone cold) every time since she put some diesel in this afternoon. It drove fine, and only lopes for the first 30 seconds or so. Drained some stuff outta the water seperator, and it lit off...

    Freeway Driving

    How fast do you guys run on the freeway? I'm in Houston all the time and traffic regularly moves along at 75-80mph. My truck will do that, but with no overdrive, the old 6.9 really sounds like she's screaming. I don't have 4.10s or anything, but I was just wondering if it's really safe to be...

    Random No-Start

    Earlier tonight we went out to eat and when we came back out the truck wouldn't start. No GP light, no dome light, nothing except dim tail lights. The dome light wouldn't even come on if you turned it on at the switch. I got out and made sure the battery cables hadn't wiggled loose and they...

    New Truck, New Sound

    About a month ago I bought an 86 F250. It shows 96000 on the odometer, and I think that might be it, considering the shape of the rest of the truck. Within the last week or two it has started to make this ticking, almost knocking sound at anything above an idle. It sounds a little bit like...

    Shop Manuals

    I was on here a little while back (or it may have been on superdutydiesel.com) and there was a thread that had a link to a site that had just about every factory service manual that pertained to almost any Ford diesel pickup or van ever made. I remember it had icons that were the cover of each...
