#40 of 71 1972 f250 by edanforth Mar 22, 2008 (8:02 am)
How do I find the year of the motor? The air cleaner says 460 but I don't think that was available for 1972.
#41 of 71 1982 F150 Electrical Problem by dglarson May 17, 2008 (5:21 am)
I have a 1982 F150, Straight 6 with automatic transmission with the following problem. With engine running but sitting in park the wipers, turn signals, emergency flashers and heater fan do NOT work. I put the vehicle into Drive and the wipers start working but the turn signals, emergency flashers and heater fan still do NOT work. With the Engine OFF but the ignition key turned to On, the wipers, heater fan, emergency flashers and turn signals all Work. This is clearly some kind of electrical problem but I don't know where to look or start. Replies to this message: ckelton489 (Jun 08, 2008 3:39 pm)

#43 of 71 1987 F150 4.9l 4x4 4spd man by trobertc Jun 03, 2008 (10:45 am)
I have a 1987 Ford F150 (4.9 300ci FI 4x4. 4 speed manual) I have a problem when it warms up it starts choking and stalling.. I replaced the fuel filter because I thought it had some trash in the tank but It still stalls when it gets warm. I am sure I have enough gas but I am lost. Could it be the Rotor cap and button?. I dont think it is the catalytic convert. for it doesnt glow when hot. Can some one help?   Replies to this message: asaley (Aug 06, 2008 5:56 am)

Replying to: dglarson (May 17, 2008 5:21 am) i would start with the steering column i too had the same prob but never acted exactly like that..just some of the stuff didnt work then not realizin it they did work but not thinkin bout it at the time....i just pulled off the steering wheel and started cleanin all the contacts. then everything worked and never had a prob since, now granted this may not fix all of ur probs but it should help alot plus theres not alot of work and its cheap to do.

Replying to: tweetybyrd505 (Jun 27, 2007 9:22 pm) Hi Tweetybird, Many of the starters produced require a strap (usually copper) which goes under the Battery Positive lead to the solinoid terminal. This supplies power to the ignition system complete and provides power to the solonoid. Without this strap nothing will work (other than jump starting as you have indicated. Install the strap should solve your problem. Mike9408
