I couldn't honestly tell you from experience, but the exploded view
diagram looks like it uses the same case. I'd say that one difference
it would have to have is the imput shaft bearing hole. Other than that
is anyone's guess. Azie usually knows alot about tranny's, I'd bet he'd
know.

Have my own theory, GM of Sweden has always been and still are very good at
promoting and
selling their own vehicles, unlike Ford of Sweden that has mostly pushed
for English and German
made cars and trucks.
When I tell people here that I'd like to buy a real truck, and it's been a
best seller for close to two
decades in US, they think I'm joking.

When the exhaust manifold on my 1965 240 6 developed a huge crack, I was
able to locate several at local junkyards. It was a matter of finding one
that had the fewest hairline cracks in it. The dealer still carries them but
you will pay $$$ for it.
Good luck, Roberta

Subject: FTE 61-79 - Look out for the flying module, someone's throwin parts again..

Does it do it when it's warming up and smell like fuel under the hood
after it dies? If so, check the choke. It's been so long since I've run
a 2100 I can't remember exactly what the choke has on it. If it has a
vacuam pull off, check it and replace it if it's weak. It should hold
the blade open about 1/8 inch and hold it steady when pulled on with
vacuam. If you have a tube running from the exhaust manifold to the
choke make sure it's not broken anywhere, this is what makes the choke
operable. If you have a hose running to the air cleaner from the
exhaust manifold, make sure it's on and in good shape. It prevents carb
icing (it will die and can be immediately started back up) which will
happen as high as 45-50 degrees on a foggy morning. A bad choke pull
off will cause it to die every time it comes down to idle when the choke
is anywhere but wide open, and will run rich when the choke is open.

If it's only doing it hot, and you're sure the choke is OK, then the
ignition is probably where the trouble is. Check all of your grounds,
and also concentrate on the wires that feed your primary ignition. You
need to find a manual that tells you what color wire has what and when,
along with the power feed order of components. Hook up a good
multimeter and follow the path of the power as it runs to each part of
the system in it's specific order. If you are showing power going into
a component but none or not enough coming out, most of the time you've
found your culprit. Sometimes though, a parallell part of the system
can affect the voltage that's seen in a certain component. Like a good
coon-dog you have to circle around to make sure it isn't tapping the
tree on you, (moving to or feeding from another path and losing it's
signal) before you condemn the component.

It sure seems like if they hooked it up to a scope they would have been
able to find the trouble. If your diagnosis fails, find someone who can
read waveforms to hook it up and let it sit there and run until it does
it. That will tell you whether a component is bad or not. I've seen
folks throw $500 in parts at a problem and have it turn out to be a bad
ground or a loose plug causing it. $75 to a good diagnostician would
have saved some money. I know, there are a lot of lousy ones out there,
but find a good one and drink beer with him and offer to keep his tools
clean, be his best buddy and favorite P. Having someone who knows what
he's doing is real important when you have trouble with a computer
controlled vehicle, they can break you when you throw parts at them.

Hey Don,

Good notes on the steering box conversion. I will be doing this soon to a 76
highboy, using the steering box from the 77-1/2 to 79 F-250 box. As you say,
it will take some custom fabrication. I have the box already, but it looks
like a tight fit. I saw where you were considering using the F-150 box (I'm
assuming here you were thinking the 4x4 box). I was looking at that myself,
but I don't think it will work because the output shaft turns the wrong way,
in other words, steering left would turn the wheels to the right because of
the difference in the tie rod setups between the F-150's and the
F-250's....maybe you can confirm this and let me know if you can figure out a
way around this....

I've got a '74 F100 with a 360 that throws oil from the distributor opening
while I am on the highway. I pulled the dist and replaced the seal, but it
still leaks. It seems to have "normal" oil pressure (high midrange cold
and midrange hot). It doesn't seem to be causing any problems othr than
making a mess. 1) Is this a real problem? 2)Any suggestions?

Subject: FTE 61-79 - Shunt Wire

Wayne,

The original thread started in digest;

fordtrucks61-79-digest Tuesday, September 23 1997 Volume 01 : Number 237

Pay special attention to Tom Hogan's posts. He had the best description of
the location of the shunt wire. I just used a piece of #12 THHN wire
(approx. 10') crimped into the middle of the shunt and it has been working
good for a year now. The meter is a little bit too sensitive, I still plan
to reduce the length of the wire I added to reduce the resistance. With the
value of resistance that I have now the meter "twitches" noticeably as the
regulator cycles.

Subject: FTE 61-79 - New from Norway.

Hello list,

My name is Bill Brox, and I lives in Norway.

Been fond of the Ford trucks for a while, never owned one, but driven a
F-250HD 4x4 supercab once....
So that's my experience with American trucks... except a few trips in a
Ranchero '74

The reason for my subscription to this list is actually my membership of
Ford Galaxie Club of America and my interest in Galaxies. Needs some parts
for the Galaxie, and a few days ago I came to think that it might be an
idea to buy a truck, put the Galaxie parts in the bed, and have the truck
and parts shipped to Norway on a ro ro ship (ro ro = roll on roll off,
means you drive the truck onboard, and off at the destination).

Been looking at the Ford Truck site, and at all those nice pics. of pickup
trucks...
Everyone nice, but I have to admit, the fronts up to 1976 appealed to me.
Since I do not want a truck older than 30 year, I guess it narrows the
years a bit.
Those who have newer and older trucks must not think I dislike their
trucks, just that some likes the mother, and some likes the daughter, as we
put it in Norway.

Will be on this list to learn about the different trucks, and in the later
winter or early spring 1999 I hope to have made a choice.

Maybe some have good advices ?

Also, I have a direct question, what is a Unibody truck ?

So long, hope this will be a nice time.... Bill Brox

I remember it wasn't done without risk of burning up the wires under
the dash. I think Tom wants to be sure a tech tip on it is fool proof
before submitting it. I wonder if that's why Ford didn't hook it up in
the first place. ", I have also heard that when they worked people
didn't know how to read them and brought vehicles in for service
thinking something was wrong. Ford also did a fix on oil pressure
gauges. They never went below 5 psi. unless it had no pressure at all.
It cut cost on what they considered needless service visits. Then they
could pass those savings down to us. ;]

this sounds like the ultra rare mustang i thought i had found, it was a 69 gt
coupe with a "R" engine code which made it super rare anyway. i thought it may
have been some kind of ford experimental car, i didn't recognize the engine,
it had exhaust ports like a fe. anyway i had an old ford racer to take a look
at it, and he said it was a 462 lincoln engine, it was the first and last one
of those i saw.
