This is a trip down memory lane. My dad had an old Ford flatbed with 4 on the floor too. In 1989 we drove it from Los Angeles to Mexico and left it there. It was driven very little since it was left there and a few years later when my grandfather passed away my dad needed the truck for taking material to the cemetery and we took his old Ford. It sounded exactly the way this one did, but it barely ran on the road. It was stolen a few years later and that was the end of that. I have a soft spot for these because my uncles had old Fords too and I took many a ride with them as a little kid. Good memories.

Hey Kevin i know what I'm about to tell you isn't a revival project but my stepfather's GMC Suburban wouldn't start but i thought its not the fuel pump because its working so i said to my self it's not getting the fuel to the engine & there might be air in the fuel line. So i undid the fuel line asked my step sad to see any fuel comes out & it did told my step dad to put the fuel line back & let my step dad turn the key & the truck turned over. Thanks to me my step dad got his truck back & going & no other high priced mechanic touched his truck but me! I started to fix cars since i was in high school & I'm still doing that today & i love it. 😄

Awesome!!! I ALWAYS soak the the cylinders for about a week with Seafoam, Marvel's Mystery Oil, or even transmission fluid and turn the engine over by hand once a day before I ever attempt to fire it if it's something that's been sitting a long time. It could mean the difference between busting rings and totally rebuilding the engine and getting her running good. I'll even dump a little two cycle in the carburetor. She's gonna smoke like a train for a bit but it could save the engine!!!

It really depends on what your working with and how valuable/rare the engine your working with is. If it's just a generic 305 chevy or 302 ford or a 318 Chrysler just send it and fire it up, what's the worst that could happen you blow a $50 engine lol. Now if it's something rare like a 427 big block chevy or something of equal rarity or value then yes, soak the engine, change the fluids and pre prime the oiling system before the first fire up but I think its overkill for your average run of the mill engine like a 305.

Earlier this year I was given a Poulan chainsaw that didn't run. I ordered a replacement parts kit and replaced the carburetor, spark plug, fuel filter, hoses, primer bulb, and air filter. After watching so many videos since the F100 revival, I kinda felt like I was on an episode of Junkyard Digs doing the same things Kevin does. The best part... the chainsaw runs again! Thank you Kevin for the weekly tutorials and tips on how to bring an engine back to life. You describe it simply and make it seem easy enough that I could do it too. The laughs and Iowa references are great too since my in-laws are from NW Iowa. Keep em coming and I'll keep watching!

That tip about the rotor at 21:23 saved me big time. I had this weird rough idle that I couldn't tune out and there were no vacuum leaks either. One day the car lost spark altogether and it was getting dark outside. Sure enough after popping the cap off I noticed the tab was completely flat. Not only did it get the car running again, it also fixed the idle issue! Keep the videos coming man.

Quick tip for gapping points. Keep a couple paper match books in your tool kit and glove box. Thickness of the match book is almost identical to the proper feeler gauge. My wife and I still run our 73, 460 swapped F 250, on a points system, as well as a couple of our motorcycles. We also keep an emory board, nail file, or an actual points file, in our toolboxes, the truck, and in the bikes.

Could be a good engine to do a review on liquid head gasket sealant. We used to sell bottles of the stuff to taxi drivers here in Australia who ran old falcons that loved to do head gaskets..they'd run a $10 bottle of that stuff through it instead of replacing the head gasket 😅

K seal is the brand that changed my mind on coolant fixes in a bottle. Coincidentally when I first saw it work magic on a few rads/head gasket/heater core, Roadkill featured it saving a couple of their cars

I used to drive a 1975 F-350 with a twelve foot deck in high school. It was only 13 years old at the time but it wasn't in much better shape than this one. Shortly after I started driving it (when I was 16) I put it's third engine in it (360 cu inch). I used to get as low as 6 mpg with that truck (at close to 80 mph) and that is per imperial gallon (4.54 litres) not American (3.79 litres). Although that era of Ford truck is still my favourite, they definitely were not built to last (at least not the F-350 anyway).

With a different power plant to make the gas milage a little better this would make a good service truck
@houseofno
@houseofno 3 жыл бұрын
To make the mileage a little better? This is a Ford F350 flatbed. If you're looking for a gas sipper, you're looking at the wrong vehicle. These FE 390s will pass anything but a gas station. People that buy these trucks aren't worried about gas mileage - these trucks haul loads all day long and the owners aren't worried about the appetite for fuel. An engine swap on this vehicle to "improve gas mileage" is complete waste of time and money and completely defeats the purpose of a vehicle weighing around three tons. This truck is NEVER going to be a Prius no matter what you put under the hood. I doubt a fuel sipping four cylinder toting a three ton truck is going to be worth the labor of your engine swap.

Hi Kevin, Just want to say that I enjoy your videos, because of two main reasons. I love that you revive mostly Old Fords. I am a Ford fan and was born into a Ford family 53 years ago. Have owned several Torino’s and Bronco’s. And I love that your content is clean, not a lot of fowl language. Thanks for doing what you are doing! God bless!

The flatbed reminds me of the one my great grandfather bought brand new only it was for a roofing company my family owns, and I was working on back in 2018 or 2017 it had transmission problems I think and if you hit the breaks while in park also it's an automatic so when you do that it would go reverse 40 mph driving forward applied backwards which is why the truck was sit in park for years because it was too dangerous but I was determined and now she ain't here no more but either way the truck reminded me of the one I kind of did have
