    Autolite GP

    I just pulled one of my GP today and discovered they are autolites. First off, I want everyone to know I will be changing them out to bosch, motoercraft or wellmans. When I bought this truck, about 3-4 months ago, it would start immediatly, now I have to crank it 2-3 times to get it to start...

    94 Turbo Dually with 42K miles on CL

    All these trucks in oklahoma are high priced, (normal). I can't believe some the cheap prices that are posted on here in other states.

    steering wheel

    I'll have to pull the air bag pad off and take a look for the tick mark. Im not sure if the steering wheel is even the one that came from the factory. The last ime I pulled the air bag off to check, the horn and cruise circuit I noticed it was not plugged in and checking under column, noticed...

    steering wheel

    thank you all for your replies, the truck does have a 4 inch lift , which was installed before a owned the truck. wish it was removable, as it makes it hard for an old guy to get in and out of, but it looks to me like it was lifted with higher arched springs and not blocks. I'll just have to get...

    steering wheel

    My steering wheel is sitting with the top (12 o'clock position) , at about 1:30 or 2 o,clock. Can I just remove the steering wheel and reposition it a few gear teeth over? Or is there a keyway, that it will only fit in one postion? The truck drives fine and does not wander going down the road...

    Head light switch knob

    I am in need of a knob for my headlight switch. Truck did not have knob when purchased, and I have looked everywhere I can think of. Parts store does not have one and new switch does not come with knob. Salvage yards in my area, that I have called do not keep anything older than a 2002 model. So...

    Wouldn't Die

    Oldbull, you have helped me more than I can thank you for. I put it all back together and is working like it should. The fss must have been partly stuck open, until I removed it, I worked it back and forth several times before I tried to give her a start, now it is working. As for the check...

    Wouldn't Die

    Well now I am really confused. I went ahead and put it back on, turned on key then touched plug to fss and I can hear it clicking loudly like it is making good contact, time and time again. But when I had it off the fss would barely move the plunger when activated?

    Wouldn't Die

    Ok oldbull, I removed fss from top of ip, grounded it to battery and jumped a wire to post. Nothing happened, my test light comes on but plunger in fss does not move . It stays out in extended position. It pushes in freely, with just spring tension pushing it back out . Solenoid control arm...

    By energizing coil, do you mean FSS plugged in and key on or, plugged in and key off?

    Sacramento ca cl find

    From what i have seen in oklahoma, I would buy that truck for 900.00 and pay 1300.00 in california and bring it to oklahoma and register again, and still would be one heck of a deal!!! I guess I live in the wrong part of the country

    also when I got home this evening, it would not turn off, I just raised the hood and clamped shut the return line again, and it died instantly. Truck runs fine idling and going down the highway, just will not shut off.

    Wouldn't Die

    Help! I drove my truck today, and when I went to stop at the bank it would not turn off. I did as several of you have said, unplugged FSS, pulled fuse to FSS, nothing worked, truck continued to run. I even lowered idle as low as it would go, and put a piece of thick cardboard over air intake...

    slower starting than before?

    I looked all around the wiring loom and tried to trace where it went, for 12 volt power. I could not find the plug, the hot wire appears to enter the wire loom and go toward the drivers side. If you could help me pinpoint it, that would be great.

    slower starting than before?

    I finally had a chance to check out GP system, useing your advice and a Haynes manual. With the test light, all my GP's light up, so I am assuming they are all good, I did not pull one to see what brand they are. Per the Haynes manual prosess for checking the GP relay using a voltmeter/ Ohm...

    Wouldn't Die

    Thanks for the responses. I have not had any more issues, with the truck not shutting off, guess it was just one of those "Things". Does anyone know what the broken wire in the steering colum I talked about earlier might be. I had stated it was in the yellow wire sleeve, which was wrong, it...
