Ctubutis:Will do, book marked the link thanks. Would be a great day when i'm able to accurately help somebody here, or in everyday life in general with a truck or car issue. Thanks for all the help! I got her running today! I went out there and put the old solenoid on and attached everything back and she didn't try to start when i connected the negative battery cnnectin. Started her, and at first and somewhat now, sounds like theres a constant *click.click.click" while running. And, when I take off 1st is ok, but if i try to step on it in 2nd when im going she struggles. Doesn't pull you forward like she used to, can hear her sputtering. Back to google and the forums for the search . Actually im kinda looking forward to how to fix this one, getting the 1st problem solved feels good. When i'm interested in something learning is fun, lol.

Update: Thanks guys for all the advice and help. This problem has been solved, thanks to everyone's help. I think from hear i'll try to learn about carburetor work. In 1st my F250 sounds and feels ok, when in 2nd; if i step on it she'll pull clean at first, but quickly will start to sputter, and it feels like lack of power. Sounds almost like air shooting in the gas lines or something. Have already start diagnosing the problem, feels good! hah. thanks again, you guys will be seeing alot more from me.
