Hi, I'm a newby on the site AND a newby with the F150.
I bought a 2000 F150 4.2L 6 CYL Extended Cab about 5 months ago. I could see it was in bad cosmetic shape, but little did I know how bad everything else was as well!
Such as...Really fast idle...replaced IAC and mass air flow, helped a little but not totally fixed.
About 5 times out of ten, I have to lift and pull the gear shift lever toward me before it will start...(tightened the two bolts/screws as shown on the site)...plus a whole host of other things, such as missing parts, and hidden flaws.
Right now (and for about the past week) I'm working on the cab roof, the finish of which was destroyed...and I have rather a silly question about the roof. There are two "gutters" formed in the roof and I'm wondering if there are
supposed to be some kind of rubber trim in those?
Anyways, I'm glad to be a member here and look forward to learning a lot.
