hey I am rebuilding the engine. I bought a intake manifold that didn't have a water inlet that was 90 degree and I was wondering where I can get one.

And I cant find where I put the temperature sensor.


any help will be amazing

 

Tyler, I know you think this is the greatest site on the net, and we are all brilliant fellow truck owners, but mind readers we are not.

What the heck are you talking about? What engine, parts from where? Come on help us out a little.

^ need Alittle more information or description are you talking about one of the 90* water outlets sort of ball shaped with a round outlet to the side that connects to one of the radiator hoses and thermostat gets put in right under it. or one of the heater core/ intake heater line 90* fittings

 

Over the years replace the thermostat water outlet on both the 390, and the 302 thru local Napa auto parts store. IMO the after market variety; especially the type that use the 'O' ring as opposed to gasket, are problematic so I prefer OEM.

 

Most I can gleen from his profile is that it is probably a 65. Beyond that I didn't see much else. Leaves a lot of engine options to ponder.

 

What year/vehicle is the (I assume) FE intake manifold from? There are two different sized FE thermostats and housings. You have to match both to the intake manifold.

FE: Water temp sensor located at left (drivers) side rear of intake manifold.

 

Could we see some pictures? Here is how.


But I got ta say becoming a supporter is the fastest and easiest way to post pics right from
your whatever pad/cell thing or home computer.
Few of us look in the users Gallery or album as you can see by your recent visitors.

It seems awkward, but whenever you "insert a picture" to one of these threads, the forum is looking for the picture somewhere on the web (which is always available) rather than from somewhere on your hard drive (which isn't always available).

Go to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket and sign up for a free account. Then create an album for your truck. Upload any pics you want to post on FTE to that album. Have this album open on your computer when you want to post pics on FTE.

While you're making a post on FTE, select the pic you want to post from your Photobucket album. When the large version of the pic is open, right mouse click on it and select "View Image Info". The image info will be highlighted and will look something like this:
The best photos and videos | Photobucket

Copy that highlighted info (right click / copy).

When you have the spot in your post where you want the pic to be placed, select the "Insert Image" icon at the top of the post (looks like a mountain) and paste (right click / paste) the image info you copied in the highlighted box (just shows "http://" when it opens).

Your pic will be placed in the post.

Hope that helps.

Here's a tutorial Bob put together: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/67...-pictures.html

 

Hey Bill most FE intakes that I have seen the temp sensor is infront of the carb on the drivers side. At least on the early FEs I have experienced. I have not seen one on the back of the intake please educate me on those.
