Grover has only the passenger side lock. Bob, I wish I could actually help with your alternator problem. I used a Ford alternator and used the schematic I found in my Chilton's manual to make a harness for it. It turned out to be the cheapest way to do it, as well. Grover's been so reliable, I haven't been haunting this list much lately, but now he's got a little problem. There seems to be a "sticky spot" when I turn left. The steering seems to hang momentarily, then everything is fine.

Date: Thu, 01 Jun 2000 08:08:20 CDT I've had my 50' F3 (239 flatty V8) for about a month now. I have rebuilt the carb, replaced ignition wires, points, rotor...etc. replaced rusted gas line, put on rebuilt fuel pump, new battery. I can't seem to pump the gas into that glass bowl. Do you guys know if I need to prime the fuel pump? their is gas in the lines(unscrewed it alittle to see). oh yea, I am waiting for dash and guage wiring, in the mean time I've had to jump the starter directly off the battery. Does this make a difference in the fuel pump? Thanks in advance! Mark C. ________________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ From: "Douglas R."

Mark, When I fired up my '52 F-3 for the first time, it took forever and a day for the fuel to prime into the bowl. I finally took the bowl off and filled with fuel. Jumping the starter directly from the battery shouldn't have an affect on the fuel pump, but it will pump slower with the starter turning the engine over. I had to pour a little fuel in the carb so the engine would fire up long enough for the pump to get going fast enough to purge the air out of the lines.

It caused a detent in the steering box geers that really became pronoub=nced when the king pins were replaced. It would kind of find it's way into the wear spot and hang there til you gently steered it out of that spot. Does this make any sense? Ray C There seems to be a "sticky >spot" when I turn left.
