    I let it run for well over 30 mins yesterday while i was adjusting the steering gear box on the f250. Got home earlier and pulled the rad cap...no pressure at all and coolant at normal level in both rad and catch can. Cranked right up... still has a slight miss at idle, but immediately clears up...

    Something i thought if this morning. I suppose i could just need a new rad cap, but i would think that no matter how much pressure had built up in the system, of the course of a week without even cranking the vehicle, tou would think that the pressure eventually drop to nil, especially as cold...

    Misfire goes away under load and part throttle. Brake torqued it at 2000 rpm and was just as smooth as it has always been.

    Only code that it shows now is a p0303 which is cylinder 3 misfire. And i noticed some coolant on top of the thermostat housing(new aluminum replaced about a year ago) however, i feel that i may be on to something about maybe a blown head gasket. Thats the only thing i know to explain the kinda...

    Well...shes toast. While replacing the crank sensor, i noticed some coolant about to drip off the bottom of oil pan. Pulled dip stick and all good. Went to pull rad cap and about blew it out of my hand...i ain't no rocket scientist, but seems as if it may have a bad head gasket. And add to the...

    Coming home last night in the rain, my st started running very rough and way low on power. Died just as I turned in my driveway. Took several attempts but finally got it to crank and maie it on up the drive and park. It was running rough then. Had it start running rough in the rain once before...

    Let me pick yalls minds a bit. A previous owner of my st appearantly didnt use floor mats, and there's a huge hole in the factory rubber floor where the driver's heels would be. Im between just ripping it out and doing a roll on herculiner floor, and getting the acc vinyl floor kit. If i go with...

    I was really considering a brush guard for my truck. I like the look of them. But by the time i would get through re engineering to hold up to a winch mount, i can do a move bumper kit for a little cheaper. Anyways, thats a next year project. Similar to the d60 swap on my f250...

    Well i can tell you that you can't vacuum bleed the rear brakes on an obs f250 with rabs. Has to be pressurized on the m.c. side. Luckily i have a neighbor that is self employed when i need assistance. Anyways. No updates on the sport trac except it rides nice and is quiet now thanks to all the...

    I have the maddox pressure/vacuum bleeder kit from harbor freight. Works like a charm.

    When i replaced my old shocks last year, they pretty much fell apart taking them out.

    I dont have any plans to go that big. I may consider doing 265/75r16s later on. I just want it high enough so I dont hit my head gettin in.

    If they made air shocks for the front, i would consider it. Because, add in a 4 corner airlift control, and you have a good adjustable suspension with the flick of a few switches.
