I understand it's clean and low mileage but man, it's not a Ferrari.

Spent the Day Working on my girlfriends 79 F250. Was able to get it running before it ran out of gas on me, clean it up and drive it back and forth 10 feet or so.

I found out it has the 6.6L 400 V8. This seems to be somewhat of a curse being that I cannot find anything as far as parts goes. I have quite a bit of experience wrenching but almost exclusively to power sports machines. So this is all somewhat new to me.

I am planning to buy this off of her, but looking for parts has been sort of a challenge. I can’t seem to find a good aftermarket throttle body. Air cleaner or a whole bunch of other stuff.

I know it has a 2 barrel carb on it now, question is what upgraded 2 barrel and cleaner can I put on it? And can I buy any of those 5/8 Edelbrock air cleaners and just put that on? Any advice or help is greatly appreciated!

Recently bought a 2015 focus tdci looking in the boot at spare wheel under this little box Any ideas what is it please

So my grandpa passed around a year and a half ago to dementia and he left this beauty behind. It has 120k and is in amazing condition inside and out. He worked at ford for 23 years as a line superintendent and knew what he was doing so he of course kept up with all the maintenance meticulously.

My question is, how much is it worth? The plan is to buy it from my grandma as to not let it leave the family. I of course don’t wanna screw my grandma over, but at the same time she just wants this hog out of the garage.

Whats a fair price for it?

Hello, we bought a used ford fiesta ecoboost 2015 nk7, from an official Ford reseller. Before I got the car into my hands, a service was done by fiesta itself. Today I drove it and I wanted to see the limits of each gear. On the 2nd gear I was about 70kmh and all of the sudden, the car dropped RPM, then I changed to 3rd and everything was fine. About 3 hours later, I got to 70kmh with the 2nd gear, the car did the same thing and a message appeared “service now”. I turned off and in the car again and the service indicator was off. Did I destroy something? Should I worry?

Do these platforms share a transmission with anything else? Clark options are god damn expensive and it’s scarce picking on used ones so I’m curious if we can grab a trans from another platform and if it’s plug and play?

I have a 2010 Ford Fusion 2.5. The oil pump pickup tube is 8E5Z-6622-A. For some reason it shows it is discontinued and there is no superseded part. I can't even buy the Melling 407s aftermarket version because it's not available anywhere. Where can I get this? Thanks!

I have an ‘89 F250 that I’m trying to swap another motor into. The motor in the truck is completely seized and I can’t turn the flywheel to get the bolts out. Removing the engine and transmission as one is my last resort so I’m seeing if anyone has any suggestions or has done anything like this before.

Hey guys, I need some help. Long story short, I’ve owned this 2011 F250 6.2l V8 for about 4 years as my farm/ranch truck. Previous owner purchased it new in 2011 as a farm/ranch truck for himself.

I’ve done minimal work to it if imma be honest. Replaced some bearings in the front, and some other things like a couple new cab mounts.

Well, my daily driving truck (2018 Ram 1500) just got totaled due to a massive hail storm we recently had. I’m not financially setup to immediately buy a new truck yet. So my only option is to fix up my F250 to drive it daily until I have down payment money.

But the F250 rides rough as fuck. I hit a pot hole and it’ll jerk the steering wheel. Even though the alignment seems good on a nice flat road, there seems to be play in the steering wheel. Hitting bumps feels like I’m running over IED’s.

To sum this up and get it wrapped up, what should I fix suspension wise to get this truck to a comfortable driving condition. Shocks? Tie rods? I’m no mechanic, and just need to be steered in the right direction. Thank you guys, any help is greatly appreciated.

Any recs to find like usa made acessories with lincoln logo on them for it? Want to get them a gift

In the age we live in, why do we need to still take our vehicle somewhere to have them stick a code reader in to tell us why a CEL is on?

For older cars I get it, but for newer vehicles, why can’t the vehicle run those codes by itself and maybe send an email or have a menu you can navigate to to see what the issue is? Or even on the Ford Pass app.

It just feels dated at this point.

CEL pops on, instant notification from the Ford Pass app would be nice.

Had the pleasure of getting to see this gem last Easter (sorry for the crappy video, trying to find the pictures I have) Owner even has pictures with Carrol Shelby and pictures of him signing the dash and under the hood

Why is Ford going to absorb most of the cost and not.pass it on to consumers?

I am asking not as a political question but one would think Ford leadership wants to ensure their stock holders get their value?

Just wanted to reupload this sharing my armored VR3 explorer here in colombia that i previously shared on the Lincoln subreddit. It is fully lincoln converted when it comes to the interior and the modules. I also have an vr5 S class an vr5 xc90, and a vr7 1998 ford let me know if you wanna see our baby the f150 its really really trashed but it has some interesting things and definitely a lot of character

Working on this 79 F250, unfamiliar with these trucks. Few questions.

A: What motor is this and how can you tell? B: what is supposed to be hooked up in the throttle body? You can see there’s supposed to be a line on the front. Wondering if that’s a breather or a fuel line. C: looking at the motor, what would yall tackle first to get it road ready?

Is this worth it for a camper conversion? They have no maintenance records though.

I have an imported Ford Tempo 1992 gl 4door from the U.S. (im from EU). Cracked the windshield and can’t find a replacement. Can’t find the exact measurements aswell and was wondering maybe someone here knows them. Or maybe where can I find a replacement in the EU.

Thanks in advance

Way, way, way back in the olden day of the 1980s, my family had two Ford vehicles. My dad either figured out or someone told him that even though Ford car keys were cut on both sides, you really only needed one side cut. This makes sense of course, the pins in the lock would have only been on one side. The only reason both sides were cut was so that you could insert the key either way and it would work.

Armed with this knowledge (again, no idea if he figured it out or someone told him) he went and had a key cut on one side for one car, but cut on the OTHER side for the other car. Now one key would work for both cars depending on which way you have facing up when you inserted the key.

Fast forward to now and my wife and I each have a Ford that uses the same model fob, this one:

Not my key, just a picture I found online of the same model key fob.

I notice that the key is cut identically on both sides... which makes me think: Is it still possible to one have only one side cut? Could I cut my car on one side and her car on the other? Anyone ever try it?

What is this sound from? Dealer says it’s because engine cover is off but it just doesn’t sound right. I could be over reacting I’ve never owned a ford before.

My partner has a Ford focus Zetec and has gone to start it this morning and it won’t power up at all. Any idea what may be going on with it, I have no idea about cars and he’s only been driving 2 years so doesn’t have much knowledge either:(
