Subject: Re: F350 driving/fog lights Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2001 09:15:00 -0500 I just noticed those lights the other day myself. I was going to contact my guy at Ford to see if I can get it as a kit. I'll let you know what I discover. ___________________________________________________________________ 1991 Mustang LX Coupe 347 : 12.14 112 No NOS yet! : 3240w/driver

Is there a kit from Ford to add these to my 1999.5 F350 ? I looked the mounting brackets over and like the total design. Also when I ordered my 1999 F350 I was under the asumption that keyless entry included the key pad on the front doors, so I did not order the keyless entry, just power locks. Can I just purchase the keyless entry module and plug it into the truck wiring harness without any modifications? ========================================================== To unsubscribe: http://www.ford-trucks.com/mailinglist.html#item3 Please remove this footer when replying. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2001 09:04:45 -0600 From: Scot Cline <scline cottagesoft.com>

I installed one on my wife's Mountaineer. It has worked well, and has better range than my factory installed one. They don't plug into the harness, you have to cut a wire or two, and some splices. It is a fairly easy install, except for laying under the cramped dash. As for the fog lights, you can get a kit from Ford, but I hear its pretty pricey (seems like $200 or so). The lights aren't driving lights by any means, and truth be known, they are ok as fog lights, but thats it. I would ride with my friend at night, before spending any money on the kit. You might not want it. ------------------------------ From: "Peter Calabrese" <snkypete banet.net>
Subject: Re: F350 driving/fog lights Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2001 10:10:58 -0500 I was going to check into their wattage and try to find out who the real maker is. If I didn't like them, I was going to get a set of PIAA's since I believe they make a square driving light. I just added two rocker switched next to my ESOF. I found some switches at Radio Shack that really look like they belong (not a cheesy $.99 rocker). If anyone would like a pic and the part numbers, feel free to email me privately.

Subject: Re: F350 driving/fog lights One thing you need to remember is the Ford factory fog lights may be supplied with a switch that integrates the regular light system. I looked into this some time in the past and have a couple of, what I think are Ford stock numbers that relate 1Z 7E3 149 03 6049 912 7 SS116-226-148-32319 Ralph Lindberg ICQ 5988954 RV and Camping FAQ <http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://kendaco.telebyte.net/rlindber/rv/> Just because MS-Window's holds 90% of the market doesn't mean it's superior.

Date: Fri, 16 Mar 2001 05:26:01 EST Subject: F-350 Fog lights Dear Dan: When I ordered my 2000 F-250 Super Duty V-10, Super Cab, 4x4, Lariat, I went through a Ford accessory catalog, and ordered fog lights for my truck through that. As well as a front grille guard, bug shield, bed liner, wood grain dash, power sliding rear window, weather guards for all the windows, as well as an alarm system Try seeing if your dealer has that FORD accessory catalog. I don't know about the keyless entry thing, as mine was standard on the Lariat. I hope this helps "Until You Have Loved an Animal, a Part of Your Soul Remains Unawakened" 1.

Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2001 19:46:58 -0800 Subject: How to tell if a diesil is running too rich? My truck has been a bit "off" it's feed lately. It celebrated 100K miles last week, and for a long time it's been a royal pain to start on cool (less than 45 degrees F) mornings. Now it is taking forever to warm up and it has just an ever so slight silvery blue exhaust, especially when it is cold. It sounds about the same as it always has, but fuel economy has dropped from 20-25 mpg to 18-20 mpg - so of that I think is from when I don't plug it in and it takes five minutes to start. Who knows how much diesel I waste cranking it like that. So, what things do I need to consider doing to get this pour beast running at top form. I don't trust the local Ford dealership, so I need to know exactly what things to plan on replacing, which ones I can do myself, and what I'll need to get a mechanic to do - and perhaps the usual charge for the work. I don't mind getting dirty, but I don't want to break my truck either. I've never worked on a diesel before.
