Thank you, I appreciate it. I have tried to keep her nice. I am quite proud of her, although there is always room for improvement. Definitely do not want to scrap it, I would sell my wife's car to keep this. haha I hope someone does the same if it sells.

Hey everyone,
I regretfully put this post up for my truck. I am deployed a lot and haven't had time to take care of this beauty like I wanted to. I haven't been on the forum in probably a year or so but this is where I feel she...
No worries, I know you're lookin out. I appreciate that. I went ahead and wired in a manual switch for my FSS. Completely rewired it, bypassing the 8 wire connector and mouting a switch in the cab next to my GP Manual Switch I just hooked up.
The connector I looked at was the...
thanks for the info guys. I finally finished pulling the plugs, which were a pain in the a$$. I ended up having two broken tips, but must have passed long ago as they were all carboned up and dirty. 7 autolites and 1 ac-delco plug. only one autolite was slightly swollen, but came out no...
You all rock. Thanks for the help guys!! It is easier for me to read this and go and do it to learn and understand what is going on. Need to be hands on, so sorry that it takes me a little bit. haha.
I put a line from the battery to the FSS, and the truck fired up without fryin the wire......so i wired the thing up to a fuse in the cab, and all of a sudden, it won't stop....i shut off the truck and it continues to run, so I had to pull the fuse out to kill the truck. how the hell do i fix...
You are the man franklin. That is what I needed!
Matrix --- Got preoccupied today with house cleaning and shopping stuff :puke: So tomorrow afternoon after my other job is done, I will try your idea of the line to the FSS from the battery. hopefully it won't fry the thing and I can just...
Well I just got home late, so sorry for the hold up guys. I will try to look at the truck here in a bit, once I find my work light.....wonder where it went?!:dunno
Does anyone have any idea what gauge wire I need to run to the fuse box, and what size fuse I need to use to power my FSS?? It...
Awesome. Thanks guys, I will still give you an update kn the direct line to the FSS. Trying to type on my phone now while my wife chatters in my ear....hahaha
EDIT: What gauge wire should I use? As well as what size fuse?? I am good at running and splicing wire, but have no idea what fuse...
Thanks for the reply Martrix. I will try running a temporary direct wire when I get home in a few hours, hopefully it could fix it?? I will let you know.
The Temp Switch I figured was a goner, so I unplugged the clip going to the idle solenoid/cold advance solenoid. Once unplugged, it...
EDIT: My apologies, the truck is a 1984 F250 6.9L Has a turbo, but as far as I know that doesn't affect the stuff on the front of the motor.
How is everyone?? I haven't been on here in a while, as I was deployed again and will be leaving in a few months for another, hoping all is well...
