David 85 F-150 300 I6 ------------------------------ From: "Kyle L. Pacatte" Subject: 302 problems Date: Tue, 4 Jul 2000 23:56:18 -0500 I have a 94' f150 XLT, 5spd, 302 with 63000 miles. I'm the second owner. I have a problem with the truck spark knocking (pinging) during acceleration, and during constant speed. I added a super chip, which made the pinging worse, even with 93 octane gas. Also the truck uses one quart/800 miles. Not a lot of sign of oil burning in the exhaust. It seems like the truck is loading up. I've replaced and modified the following: MAP sensor, O2 sensor, Cap & Rotor, Plugs and wires, K&N air filter, Gibson super truck split rear exhaust, Superchip. I've been hearing a lot about how speed density engines have problems accepting modifications. Any help would be appreciated, I would really like to get rid of the pinging. Thank you, Kyle ------------------------------ From: "Skerrett, Michael" Subject: AC hiss Update Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2000 09:01:48 -0400 <...on...off...on...off. It sounds strange to me, as I can remember it only clicked once when you turned on and off the ac, It didn't pulse at all before.> Nelson Get yourself in the truck and get it to a repair shop soon. That cycling you see and hear is due to no coolant (and hence lube) in the system. Run it much longer and it won't matter because you will have to replace the whole system. What is it they say at the auction? Final Warning....

I had my uncle's shop put it on. They were supposed to need no modifications, but they had to heat and bend the y-pipe to make them fit. I believe the plenum support had to be filed down on mine as well. I had to pay for a lot of extra labor hours. After getting over paying for the install, I love the performance. I have the ceramicoat headers, and they still look like they were put on yesterday (They have almost 10k on them). Good Luck.

What's wrong? ------------------------------ From: "Adam" Subject: Big Block Parts Date: Wed, 4 Aug 1999 13:37:16 -0400 I bought a mostly complete engine from a friend last nigh- and need to know what the heck it is- the block has casting # D1VE-A2B, crank is 4UAB(maybe 4UA8), D8VE-A2A heads, D00E rods, 09AE stamped on the caps, D3VE intake. I need to know what year these things are- what is the CC of the heads, and if these parts will go togeather to make a good engine. And is it a 429 or a 460? Tell me everything you can come up with. Thanks a bunch- BigA 84 F350 4x4 351w ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 05 Jul 2000 13:52:02 -0400 From: Ken Payne Subject: Re: unsuscribe 80-96 list At 01:13 PM 7/5/00 , you wrote: >Please see if you can do this, I have sent several messages and I am still on >this list. What's wrong? Try spelling correctly. ------------------------------ From: acor Subject: '91 Aerostar driving lights Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2000 20:27:02 -0700 Hi Dave Since your headlights are ok, then the headlight switch, fuse and ground are ok. I suggest the problem is in the DRL (daylight running light) module or the grounding switch for the DRL. On my '91 F250 the DRL is grounded with a switch on the emergency brake lever. Brake on - DRL off, brake off - DRL on. Find the switch and check it first. Ford Canada issued recall notice 92M78 feb 5/92 to replace the original DRL module in "certain '89 thru '91 cars and trucks". Symptoms included "reduced, flickering or no DRL illumination". In some cases the DRL may remain "on" even when the ignition is turned off. Normal Lo and Hi beam operation is not affected. My DRL module was replaced June '92 and I have had no problem since. If you have any questions email me directly.
