Now what this truck is doing we started out cold engine it runs pretty good you get up around 1500 RPM and you’ll start noticing a miss it’ll run like that for 10 or 20 miles. It’s warmed up pretty good at 5 miles. Now you’re getting that miss but it is tolerable. Then it starts getting much...
I did have to balance the drive shaft I'm still not satisfied with that but the major problem I found was the wheels are not right for the axle. that allowed for the wheels to be off center. The rear end out of that truck come from an earlier model they took the earlier model wheels with the...
More information, here's what I did.
First thing I removed the rear drive shaft and check for vibration, ran pretty smooth. That eliminated a lot.
So I'm checking around looking for anything that might be out of order everything seems to be tight and relatively clean so I hooked the rear drive...
Not so good to go. Got 86 out on the highway today and the drive shaft or something in that drivetrain it's not balanced vibration is fierce.
I'm sure I can find a local shop to make me up a drive shaft.
Thing I'm wondering is. If I'm going to do this new drive shaft do I really want to stay...
Well we got all that stuff done and got some new tires on it and it looks like it's good to go. Just wondering what a truck like this might be worth.
Thanks again for all the help!!
My master cylinder the cast iron one bolted right up the depths for the rod is the same on both cylinders. Sure hope I don't have to get into that pedal travel adjustment I don't have a clue how that works. Guess I'm just gonna hook it up see how it works.
I'm changing my power steering gearbox...
Is that the 92 that you're working on? I see it has the aluminum master cylinder mine is 86 and has the cast iron master cylinder. I would hope to get by with only two hours labor as you did but I already have that much in getting the old parts from donor truck lol. I don't yet see any reason to...
Thanks for the reply turned out to be the vacuum booster. So I've been looking for a good reason to change over to hydroboost. I have the booster and the power steering pump on my 96 F superduty parts truck and I was really surprised to see that they both will interchange on this 86, at least it...
Brakes are working like there is no boost no power assist
I did put new calipers on the front and replaced one wheel cylinder in the back
strange thing I noticed while I was in the process of bleeding them. I usually let them gravity drain, but they would not I barely got anything to drip out at...
the master cylinder will move a little how do I stop that?
and the bushing is missing great tips thanks!!
the bobcat gets to look like that every great once and a while. I have had it since 1988 and use it every day. But we do go easy now days thanks
On the wheel calipers that were dragging, I just took and pushed pistons back in with a C clamp then release the C clamp mashed breaks did this several times they seem to free up time will tell.
This picture shows the clutch slave cylinder. I'm having trouble getting enough travel or pedal. The...
OK so I found the oil pressure release valve by the threads for the oil filter to thread on, I can push it open with my pinky it doesn't seem to be stuck at all. Everything seems to be pretty clean not sure where to go from here. still have the 150lbs of oil pressure at cold start.
question: is...
OK so I found the oil pressure release valve at the top of where is the filter would attach, I can push it open with my pinky it doesn't seem to be stuck at all. Everything seems to be pretty clean not sure where to go from here.
So now I've decided to go ahead and pull the oil cooler got the backside off that's easy. I'm not sure where the relief valve is supposed to be on this oil cooler or if it's in the block?
i'm thinking i will start this thing ....Just let it idle for 1/2 an hour or so. maybe that will clear something up. i haven't even run 5 gallons of gas through yet.
