These are such good good trucks. Even the predecessors. I had an 89 with a 302, and a buddy had a 92 with the 300. People griped about the transmissions, but mine was good at 284k, I guess. My buddy's was a 5 speed. Lots of room, lots of power, and honestly really good 4x4 considering the ratios. There's crack heads that sell these in Columbus and I sit here and think, if I lived there again, I'd have 1 and 4 parts trucks 😀 people throw away good trucks all the time.

@pivotmaster9556Ай бұрын
@@krazzymonkeeyyou gotta research everything a fuck ton before you attempt repairs, there are specific procedures and they must be followed, sometimes the answer in a thread still doesn’t explain everything and you need comprehensive research. If you want a tach, 92-93, 94-95, 96-97 are plug and play and you can have the stock dash with the tach if you swap. If you throw enough crucial parts at it like radiator, maybe new water pump if it fails it will be great for you. Always use motorcraft parts and spark plugs. Learn how to read the codes

My 95 with 239k on t he stock bottom end runs just fine,got alot oh speed parts on it like a cam lots of head work headers 3-inch exhaust editor block up or lower and take manifold k&n cold air and 460 radiator just to start, also have a zf5 speed heavy duty clutch bump the timing up a bit I can't remember how many degrees but she goes down the road with no problem. Last I checked I was getting over 16 on the interstate at 70 mph. It ran a 17.2 in the 1/4 Mi burning through first and second gear with two full tanks of gas for added weight in a feeble hope of traction.it weighs 5700 lbs on dot certified scale.your oil pressure is just a bad sending unit,easy fix

wait is it an f-350? I've got a 1994 f-150 4x4 RCSB 5.0 5 speed and mine only weighs like 4000lbs the Gross weight it like 6250lbs. so if yours is 5700lbs itd have to be a 350 4x4 crew cab long bed and maybe dully cuz that a lot of extra weight. these old trucks didn't weight a lot especially compaired to the new trucks. a new half ton weighs like 6000lbs!

The gauges in these trucks like oil pressure are an idiot light with a needle so don't use that as a indication of true oil pressure, get yourself like a triple combo setup of oil, water and volts and stick it under the dash (I suggest electric as the little nylon lines the mechanical gauges have can blow and possibly cause a fire or cook your engine if you loose pressure, trans temp is very useful as well. 190K miles you can try stepping up to a 10W40 or something thicker if your oil pressure is lower then spec, usually anything lower the 10psi @ hot idle is low and then you should be considering a rebuild or at the bare min. bearings and an oil pump. Your trans (4R70W) make sure the maintenance is kept up and has a proper cooler if your in a hot state. Unless you have done head work and a camshaft, i doubt the truck is making 240ish HP, only the Gen 1L had 240hp with a 351W with GT40 heads and intake, your engine should be 195HP if its stock with the MAF and factory roller cam, however slap on a set of Gt40P heads, a good matched cam with roller rockers and up the stall on your torque converter and you'll see a good increase in power with the 4.10s. I'm doing up a 1990 shorty, they are getting popular, not square body chevy popular but they are getting noticed. Kudos on your build.

Your oil sending switch is bad. The oil pressure gauge does not give true pressure. Its a glorified idiot light. The sender switch gives an on or off signal. You have to get the early style sender and modify the cluster by removing a resister on the printed circuit and then solder a wire in place of it. Thats what somebody told me when I bought my 94 4x4 F150 which I still am driving.
